Have a what?

Today I sauntered over to Staples to purchase some office supplies and other necessities for my office. I must say that I really do like Staples. They are my favorite office supply store of all office supply stores. They tend to be clean and organized and always have what I need in stock. I know most of the sales people at "my" Staples because I go there on a weekly basis for work. But today, a new guy rang up my sale and as he handed me my receipt he says (get this):

"Have a randy day!"

Huh? Does this mean I'm getting old because I don't know the teenage lingo? Or did this guy really want me to have a randy day? The meaning I know for "randy" is not really appropriate for Staples sales people to use as salutations.

Teenagers out there: Please explain!

HA HA. That's really strange. Bet you had an odd look on your face. I wonder what in the world he thinks randy means. Cuz, I am pretty sure the meaning you and I know for the word hasn't changed.

Hmm... I could probably ask the kids at school, but I worry I may jeopardize my job! Haha!

I think I'm totally unhip and no nothing about today's lingo - but I have heard nothing about "randy" being used by today's kids.. and I've been forced to watch all of these HSM2 shows, etc.. so puh-LEASE!!

Did you laugh?

Maybe he said, "Have a Randy Clay!"

You just misunderstood him. He knew where you go to church.
