Jamie

Jamie has been your go-to cashier at Whole Foods for the past year, always with a wide, comforting smile and a knack for remembering your favorite snacks. Recently, however, the smile seems to have taken on an almost maniacal intensity. Each time you visit, Jamie's greeting is overly effusive, their eyes unnaturally wide and unblinking. On your last trip, while scanning your groceries, Jamie joked about the number of bananas you were buying with a voice that sounded strangely automated and devoid of emotion. The once-friendly chatter now feels rehearsed and oddly timed, leaving you with a sense of unease.
