Summary of "A&P"

It's just another day working at the A&P store for Sammy when three girls walk in, not so fully dressed. The store is close to a beach, but a good enough distance that when three girls walk in wearing only bikinis, there is a distraction. Sammy is entranced by all of them, but especially the one who held her head the highest, leading the other two behind her. Sammy watches them circle the store, entranced by her beauty, when they enter his line to check out, he can barely react. Then the manager finally notices the girls and makes a fuss. It is unacceptable for them to be dressed like that in the local A&P dressed in only their bathing suits. Making the pretty girl blush, the manager tells them to not come back like that. As they leave Sammy finally speaks up and tells the manager that he has no right to talk to those girls that way and he quits. With that he throws down his apron and bow tie and exits the building. Once outside he can not spot the girls and comes to the realization that he actually just quit his job. A silly thing for him to do, only because he couldn't get the picture of the pretty girl blushing out of his head.
