"Yes, yes I did...now I'll never have to shop ever again for as long as I live!" "No, I found a whole bunch of shit I didn't want, and I'm buyin' that instead." "Well, let's just see if I did..." (pulls out a list a mile long, starts reading each item off one by one)..."Sugar, check...flour, check...eggs, check..." "No, I couldn't find peace of mind and happiness....oh, and ketchup." "Yes, everything except my wallet. Will that be a problem??" [Edited 5/2/05 0:57am]  Some of these look good to use

I really don't want to answer that question anymore. I am looking for a snarky response for the next time - any suggestions??? She is probably required to ask this by the store. Don't be so hard on her. Why don't you try this?: In a friendly tone, say "Does the store ask you to say that?" Regardless of her answer, tell her it's okay - she doesn't have to ask you that every time. If done with humour, it'll probably get her to stop asking you. | |

B2O2O2T2Y said: I work in a grocery store. DO NOT GET ME STARTED.
Me: Hello, do you have a savings card? Them: No, do i need it? Me: Oh not really, i'm just curious about the contents of your purse. 
Me: Ma'm, you can't get this on WIC Them: But there was a tag under it! Me: Did you read the tag? Them: It was right under where i got this! Me: Did you read the tag? Them: I ALWAYS get that on WIC Me: Did you read the tag? Them:.....what tag? Me: On the shelf where you got this. Them: Oh, no i didn't. Me: It says on the tag which WIC item it should be under Them: Well, maybe they put the tag in the wrong place
Them: Can i cash this lottery ticket at your line? Me: I'm sorry, you have to cash it at the office. Them: Well, is anybody in there? Me: Not right now, it closes at 10 and opens at 8. Them: Okay. Well, when you open your drawer up, can you cash it? Me: No i'm sorry i can't do that. Them: But you have money in your drawer Me: And you have to cash your ticket at the office Them: THIS IS BULLSHIT!! THAT'S WHY I HATE SHOPPING HERE!!
Me: Hello, do you have a savings card? Them: I need cigarettes 
THEN you have to ASK what kind of cigarettes they want... Me: We're all out of those Them: You're all out? Me: What the fuck are you? My retarded echo?
Them: Can i have change for this $20? Me: You have to get it from the Service Center Them: Yeah, but you can open your drawer up. Me: I'm very aware of that, but i can't open it up just to get you change. Them: Well, why not? Me: Store policy Them: You mean i have to go stand in that long ass line? Me: If you want change. Them: That's bullshit. I'm going to Wal-Mart I could go on with this shit ALL night. Oh god, I feel your pain. I REALLY do. I hated that fucking job (good union benefits, though), I am SO GLAD that I don't have to do that anymore. People are such assholes. | |

Shuts them up, but theres hundreds more in line behind them :rageattack: 
i fucking HATE that shit. It's not cute at ALL. Or how about this one...We have a store savings card in case the customer doesn't have theirs, which we're supposed to use IF the customer needs it. But people have been using that card like fucking CRAZY and now they're abusing it: Me: Hello, do you have your savings card? Them: No i left it out in the car. Come on now. Me: Hello, do you have your savings card? Them: No, my wife/husband has it. I didn't ask you all that. And since YOU shop in here too, why don't you get a card. When we issue a card to a customer they get 3! A standard one, and 2 other ones to put on their keychain. Now what the HELL is ONE person gonna do with 3 damn cards?
Me: Hello, do you have your savings card? Them: No, but you have one Me: I sure do. If they don't ask for the store card, they're simply not gonna get it. That shit ain't cute. Me: Hello, do you have a savings card? (Then they pull out this fucked up HALF of the damn card missing and say...) "Oh, it doesn't scan. You'll have to punch the numbers in." Well it would help it i could SEE THE LAST 5 NUMBERS. Why don't these people just get a NEW CARD. THEY ARE FREE. Them: Are these buy one get one free? Me: Isn't that what the sign said? Fucking DUH. Moron. Oh, and i just LOVE how people just bring RANDOM shit up and ask me what the price is. Oh, and they LOVE to panic. When something's BOGO, it'll all come off at then end when we total everything. Instead of bagging their things, they stand IN my face, breathing on me, fogging up my glasses and yelling: "HEY!! THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE BUY ONE GET ONE!!" "Don't worry. It comes off when i total everything up." "Oh. You scared me for a little bit." What the fuck is wrong with grocery store customers? It's a fucking breeding ground for idiots i swear to God. Or we'll have a special on something WITH A SAVINGS CARD, and the customer will bring it up and... Them: Isn't that supposed to be 3 for a dollar? Me: With a savings card. Them: Well, i don't have one. Me: Then you pay regular price
Or people that come through with credit/debit/food stamp cards that DON'T SWIPE BECAUSE THE STRIP IS FUCKED UP, AND INSTEAD OF TAKING A LITTLE INITIATIVE AND GETTING A NEW CARD, THEN HOLD MY LINE UP WHEN I HAVE TO PUNCH 19572974590573409573905732780597439052785 NUMBERS IN, THEN WAIT FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO'S ALREADY BUSY AS IT IT FOR THE KEY SO I CAN OVERRIDE IT, MEANWHILE MY WHOLE IS BEING HELD UP, ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH ON THEIR DAMN CARD IN THE FIRST PLACE TO PAY FOR THE ORDER, THEN ACT LIKE SOMETHING'S WRONG WITH MY CARD MACHINE.
Them: Okay, i'm using food stamps, but i don't know how much is on my card. WHY don't you find that shit out BEFORE you leave the damn house? Them: Can you find out how much is on my card? Me: No. That's YOUR responsibility. I am not the Food Stamp Genie. Then they get 2/3 cartloads FULL of food, only to find out they only have $.57 on their whole damn card "Well, it's the first of the month so i thought it was on there.." Yeah, and i think you need your ass kicked. Fucking Morons i tell ya. So now do you non-grocery store workers see what we have to put up with, and next time you come in the store, PLEASE cut us some slack. We fuckind deserve it. ESPECIALLY if you have some sense.

But i can't afford modeling school working there. God help me i'm getting the HELL outta that damn store. I got into Real Estate, doing home loans for now until I officially have my license, then I'll do selling and loans. It's pretty much Customer Service with a little bit of math thrown in. Let's put it this way.....I made $20 an hour there, that's about what?...$2400 a month? Here, I did ONE loan, and made $6000, not to mention the other three or four loan I have in process at the same time this month and most every month. Think about it. | |

I used to be a grocery store checker, and trust me, they DON'T WANT to ask you that. They really don't give a shit what you're buying. Yes I am forced to say that crap, and unfortunatly the yuppies expect it. The store would rather cater to one customer spending 1000. dollars than the 200 people standing behind them spending 100 each (home supply by the way). and these bastards will talk and talk when you ask them that. And I've heard all the humorous responses, I stand and look at them blankly until they shut up Now I'm older than movies, Now I'm wiser than dreams, And I know who's there

You've got that shit nailed!!! Shit. i just laughed myself reading that. But wait, THERE'S MORE!!!
I was just at work all day today so of course i'm in a piss ass mood: When they pay with a debit/credit card. They swipe their card then: Them: What do i press if i want to use credit?( the machine automatically prompts you to use debit...) Me: You press the enter button twice Them: But i don't want to enter my pin number.. Me: For credit press the enter button twice. The green one at the bottom They mash more buttons than their supposed to then... Them: If i wanted to use credit why did it ask for my pin? Me: For credit, you push then enter button twice THEN after the receipt is ALREADY printed, then press the enter button twice, then i hand them their receipt Them: Am i supposed to sign something? Me: No, you put it through as debit Them: BUT I WANTED CREDIT!! ....unless you beat shit into their heads with an iron dildo, i guess they won't get it. Then they hold my line up becaue of their mistake... Me: Would you like your gallons in a bag? Them: Err uh....um.....ooh uh..err uh..uhhhhh.... You're not on Jeopardy for fucks sake....OR Me: Would you like you gallons in a bag? Them: Doesn't matter. That means NO to me. Them: You guys need to hire some baggers. Oh, well EXCUSE us for not being a bigger store and not being able to hire some and put them on the payroll, but since you expressed you interest in the Service Associates, would you care to apply for the position since we need it so desperately, your highness? I'll be in the middle of some HUGE ass order, and someone will come behind my customer and seeing me scan the items, they proceed to ask me: Them: ARE YOU OPEN!?! No. I just like to go around to different grocery stores and put my hands all over a strangers food you fuckfaced assbrain shitmonkey. HEEYUK! Or if i don't have anyone in my line, they'll sit 10 items on my belt and say "I'll be right back! I forgot something!" Which, i don't mind if it's not busy, BUT NOT DURING THE FIRST OF THE MONTH WHEN PEOPLE HAVE THESE MONSTROUS ORDERS AND YOU HOLD MY FUCKING LINE UP. THEN COME BACK AND EXPECT ME TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ORDER OF THE CUSTOMER I'M TAKING AND RING YOUR SHIT UP JUST BECAUSE "YOU SAT IT THERE FIRST". Or how'll they say "I have to grab ONE more thing.." and come back with ANOTHER cart full of food. What the fuck is it with women in grocery stores? You know what? I don't know who's worse. The men or women. [Edited 5/2/05 19:14pm] | |

Haters travel in packs and they are offended or threatened by klhk, haters express intense hostility toward the subject of hate. Haters are annoyed and roll thier eyes when klhk is paid a compliment. ask yourself, are u a hater? | |
