so, i work at frys electronics in oregon, normally a really boring and shitty job.

 

today however, a little different.  i see a quote come through my system with the name Linus Torvalds.  oh thats funny, smart people making jokes that most people wont get. it happens occasionally.   well im looking at the line a few minutes later, and sure enough this dude that happens to look just like him standing there.  he gets up to the register and im just like, you're fucking kidding me... sure enough, he runs his card and its Linus fucking Torvalds! got super excited and completely embarresed myself lmao   wasnt able to get a picture sadly cuz i didnt have my phone on me..

for those wondering he bought a Samsung Tab S2

yep right behind the registers.  the fancy machine beeps when the magnetic ink on the bills passes it.  it also has a light to show the watermarks

PIcs or it didn't happen /jk

 

Damn, but, did you said something to him or you just stood there like he was just another average mortal?

The stars died for you to be here today.

A locked bathroom in the right place can make all the difference in the world.

mostly just fanboyed all over him.  because of my job (stuck in a cage) i didnt get to talk to him much. mostly just holy crap its you! nice to meet you, kinda thing. would have loved to get a picture or autograph, ask him a few questions but i didnt get to.  i did however manage to get a picture of the screen i see when people buy stuff

edited out the cashiers name, and the salesguy the sold him the tablet, as well as the invoice number.  Puller number is mine so i didnt bother editing it
