Greedy Jambo Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) I'll start Went to asda the day Stood in a cue for 15 minutes while a nurse (could have been a dentists assistant or anything) (i'll let her off) put a whole weeks shopping through the quick checkout. Long story short, the machine broke, and i was told that the checkout was closed, i then went to move to the next one and some arse hole that had just appeared got there first. In a bit of rager i stormed down the other end of the shop to a proper check out to be stood for another 15 minutes. When i finally got to being 2nd in line, the guy scanning the food had not a care in the world, chatting away to the old dear behind him and taking all the time he wanted. I'm looking left and right and there's cues all over the place. Fuming. We're no supposed to be oot the hoose! We're no supposed to have people pushing past each other. We're no supposed to have some guy spouting pish out his gob infront of us. Edited March 26, 2020 by Space Pirate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am sure I read somewhere that bosses were trying to get their staff to cut down on the friendly banter, it was slowing down the process of getting punters through the checkouts and ultimately costing them dosh......some muppet had done a study on this.................However..........

I myself might be a Schindler’s List and talking pish I was fuming mate. I could see the guy keep looking at me for a reaction like he was funny as ****. I couldn't have made it any clearer that i just wanted out of there and there was a million people waiting to do the same. The woman he was giving his life story was there to take over from him, she served me and asked how i was doing.... I was like, I'm fine other than these cues... She said to me, "well it's to be expected with what's happening just now" NAW, it's to be expected if you employ complete and utter arse holes! I told her that i had been standing in a a cue only for it to be closed and she didn't say another word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying, but I usually just have a few drinks over the weekend, mainly to ensure that I have more days off it than on. (If beer and red wine were actually deemed to be good for you, or even just kinda neutral like coffee, I'd be very happily pishing it up most days, but sadly they're not and I don't...)

Any loose fruit/veg you need to weigh yourself round the shop on the scales then print the wee label and scan it. Everything else you scan and pop in the bag in the trolley. Granted you could easily not scan half the stuff (I'm not a cheap erse) but they do spot checks, perhaps 1 in 5 shoppers and a member of staff comes over with a scanner and scans random items in your bags to make sure you've actually scanned them.
