But Im also talking about the checker who has to do a money drop in the midst of people in their line..stopping to have the mger come over and count their hundred dollar bills and fill out a form before she starts to ring us up again.

breaking down woolworths again 9s ?

Or changing the damn tape in the register! I don't need a damn receipt! What am I going to write off three cans of Chef Boyardee on my taxes??

What about the ones who go down the LIST on their register tape BEFORE bagging their groceries! :O

Why does my line always have the customer who has product that has no price serial number so a bagger has to be called and go fins anothe r one with the price code? Why does my libne have the customer who wants the pack of cigarette thats in the case thats locked and has to be opened by the clerk taking 5 minutes for keys finding etc? Why do I feel like Im Jerry Seinfeld right now?

Because Bootleg stores don't like paying their employees and then they have to deal with all the bullshi* and then they get blamed for it by the customers. Can't stand when some customers act like the cashier OWNS the store, and they must know every detail about it, when shipment comes, how much every thing in the store cost, and are there any sales? There's sales everyday, and they act like the cashier built the store, creates the merchandise and puts prices on them.

They don't pay those cashiers enough money to even go through the whole store looking for that person with the key and they don't pay the cashiers enough to carry one willingly, and if they told them everything about the store, they'd have to pay them more, and that's something they don't want to do, and probably won't ever do...oh yeah, and then there's drama stories...

And by the way, while we're on the topic:

TURN OFF THE DAMN CONVEYOR BELT AFTER THE GROCERIES IN FRONT OF ME HAVE BEEN SCANNED AND BAGGED SO I DON'T HAVE TO STAND THERE GRABBING MINE BACK!

Why is it that someone has always had leaky milk on the fucking thing so that your groceries get scraped through it as the conveyer keeps going and going and going like the goddamned Energizer bunny?

IceNine said:

FUCK ME! How hard is it to carry a rag with you!

WIPE. IT. UP!

I'm not EVEN gonna start on the god-forsaken grocery CARTS!!!

LaVisHh said:

I ALWAYS get the one with one fucked up wheel... or the one where only three wheels touch the ground.

I'm not EVEN gonna start on the god-forsaken grocery CARTS!!!

And listen! I don't expect you to have every price in the store memorized, but at least ACT like you know how much milk costs!

I'll eat the quarter!!

IceNine said:

You too!

Or when I am strolling down the isle and hit some piece of macaroni the stupid janitor forgot to clean up and the entire store hears me drag it across the floor as my cart comes to a complete stop!

Oh yeah. Rule of thumb:

When a pickle jar breaks in aisle 5, CLEAN IT UP THAT DAY OR YOUR STORE WILL STINK!

LaVisHh said:

Every fucking time! EVERY time!!!

It sounds like you just fucking killed someone or something...

I am always in a hurry, so the cart comes to a quick halt and I smash my nuts against the fucking thing and fall to the floor in agony, only to have someone spill a box of crushed saltine crackers on my withering corpse... each time.

Try having BREASTS!!! :O

LaVisHh's thread about ATMs made me remember something else that I really hate... yes... I hate it when people write checks at the grocery store. The line is forty people long and some asshole decides to write a check... no, they don't have it signed, nor do they have the store name written on it... they just pop the book out, fumble for their license for a few minutes, fuck up writing the check, void it, write another one, wait for the check to clear the checker thing, fill in the check register, slowly replace the checkbook in their purse and finally move along.

Use your goddamned credit card or your goddamned debit card, goddamn it! Checks are for paying bills that come in the mail and they piss everyone off when you use them at the store!!!

Grrr!
