Whinning..so don't say you weren't warned.Follow

I am so tired these days, I can't even get the energy to be nice. I am living on my last ******* nerve. Yesterday I lost it at the grocery, I went shopping for a few things. When I got to the check out, the college age male checker and three bag boys were ******** around. It was taking him forever to ring my groceries, they were all talking about some sports event or something, and no one was even bagging my groceries. I just lost it, and walked off. He yelled at me, "Mam, where are you going?" In the front of the store I turned into ***** on wheels and basically told him that I figured he was more interested in his friends, and ******** around then working. So I wasn't really that interested in bagging my own groceries or paying for the priviledge.

JC, They were having a breakfast with Santa children were everywhere, and all the top management was there. It turned into a huge cluster with the Checker yelling at me. I just walked out to the car, followed by several store managers trying to apologize and drove home.

This is why I can't have a gun....I think going postal would be very easy right now!

Holy cow...I would have never expect that from you, Redyne.


For the record, I have the highest respect for you out of everyone else I've "met" in these forums. Even when things look down, you've always managed to stay chipper and happy about things. I could easiy point you as a role model of what every human being should be.

Now, reading how you lost it at the store, also lets me realize that you are human, too. Something that even you should take into account when you sit and reflect on what happened back there.

Not only do you have every right to have been upset at the grocery store, but you ALSO have every right to BE upset in general. Never forget that.

I think I've just started rambling...but you get the point I'm trying to state...I hope?

Either way, don't worry about it, girl! You know that if all those store managers serenaded you, then SOMEONE obviously got fired!

Though...it worries me a little...what else is on your mind that would allow you to loose it like that? Everything alright?

The big question is, Redyne...are you going to back to said store to get your items again? Or will you go somewhere else?

If it were me I would go back just to see the look on their faces :)

I will go back, have to today in fact. I really needed some of those things, and I am not going to let that stop me from shopping where it is convient for me.

I think that the Chemo, the holidays, and my Mom being sick are too much right now. So I am unable to handle it all, and instead of saying so I go ballastic! Bad I know, but that's me!

I may go back to being nice in a day or two, I will keep you posted!

You should get angry and vent at the idiot cashiers more often. Too often it's a bunch of 16 year olds who don't give a rat's *** about the job or the customers. Give them a lashing every once in awhile to keep em in line. It'll also help with your stress!

Ah, backbone, it's a great thing. It's what separates us from the beasts of the sea.

You're too good to bag your own food? ***** you, arrogant overpriveliged ****.

People like you, who won't even bother to bag your own groceries, even if it means speeding yourself along to the rest of your day, but get upset when someone doesn't do it for you are exactly the kind of **** for brains asswipes that need a good *** kicking.

Here's a few simple rules you can use to help make life easier for everyone at the grocery store check out aisle.

1- Bag your own damned food.
2- If you are not paying with cash, make sure you have your check (already filled out) or debit/credit card handy. This does not mean somewhere in the bottom of that portable junk pile you call a purse. This means in a place where you can get it and hand it to the clerk or swipe it through the machine in less than ten seconds.
3- Bag your own damned food.
4- If you're paying cash, have it ready just like the check/card above.
5- Bag your own damned food.
6- and most importantly of all, bag your own damned food.

Idiot.

Doesn't matter if they don't care about the job, first instinct when a customer gets crazy is to calm the customer. Do it every time, it feels good. Be like,"WTF?! Can you please focus?!!? I can't watch you two circle jerk right now!" And if he dares to trip after that say,"GFY." and THEN leave. You gotta give them a chance to beg for forgiveness.

Speaking of arrogant overpriveliged twats...your a f[/b]ucking moron, Deathwysh.

Here, let's look at it at an Employer's point of view.

You want my money. You need to earn my money. You earn my money by completing a task. Your task is to bag groceries.

Was that simple? I hope so. If I pay you to bag someone else's damned groceries, you better f[b]ucking do your job or go back to www.careerbuilder.com. Your a bag boy, bad enough I don't expect MUCH of you to start with...now your also going to f[b][/b]uck around on the job and feel "insulted" someone got mad at you for not doing your job?

GFY, you horrible combination of sperm and ova.

Right.

Is bagging a standard in every grocery shop over there?

I mean, if someone went nuts because I didn't bag the groceries I would tell her to remove her *** from my store before I bagged her.

But I'm guessing 'bagging' it's a standard service in the UK.

I don't know about the UK, but in my part of the States, all the stores have baggers. And most stores here still offer to take your bags to your car for you.

Sounds like you're shopping at the wrong stores.

Hello, my name is ***** and I DON'T live in the UK nor the States. Baggers aren't normal over here, the customers bag the groceries themselves.

But thanks for flaming my question, mighty decent of you.



Correction, in my case my boss would laugh at the customer if he/she were so stupid as to file a complaint. We don't bag the groceries for people as a standard service, I repeat, we do not.

No customer over here is lazy enough to make that demand.
