I pack shelves, check dates and err that about sums it up. But I get lots of annoying customers and I am just not the best person to deal with the moronic public.
They expect you to know absolutely everything in a superstore with employes about 400 people or something.
I work in Dairy which is at one end of the store. People ask me for things that actually take minutes to walk to, they're that far away. W
Where's youre deoderant?
Where's your toilet roll?
Where's your peanuts?
Now I'm usually standing there with 10 pints of milk or somehting in my hand. All you can see is milk and butter but NOOOOOOOO they can't be bothered just looking a bit so they walk up to the milk aisle and ask me. And I can tell when they suck and I don't know the answer. I've work a month there but only work in about 6 ailses and have as much idea as anyone else where the rest of the stuff is kept. I suppose I can't blame them too much but it still really annoys me, especially people who treat you like dirt just because you don't know the price of Safeway's own Potato and Coleslaw twin tub (1kg) is. Or if that is on offer? Or how much 'THAT' is... what that thing 40m metres away... why don't you tell me the product you moron?
" I'll just go check in the back "
" I'm not sure when we'll have more mixed vegetables in sir, that's not in my department "
" Yes, I will tell my boss that sir "
Have a nice day.
Can I take your trolley that you so desperately need?
How about I mess up the cream you spent 20 minutes 'dressing' just so I can get one that expires a day later?
How about I steal your pen?
How about I switch the reduced labels?
Oh sorry I droped the eggs
Member of Dairy to checkout 5 please... this coleslaw is rancid can you get me a new one?
And the best...
" Do you think my cat will like this milk? "

Did someone actually ask you that?!
And they honestly weren't joking... I laughed in the polite way as if it were a joke but nooooo it was true.
The moment I walked into work somebody asked me about cauliflower and its weight or something.
I finished and was shopping myself but people still asked me... I had to actually had to say in a polite way that I had finished and had to catch a bus SO I WASN'T GOING TO CHECK FOR FISH FOOD FOR HER.
"oh sorry" he replied "we only do them at christmas" ?!

we had this idiot working with us. some woman asked him
> "where can I find the sanitary towels?"
> "oh sorry" he replied "we only do them at
> christmas" ?!
Lol!
Trying not to sound heartless but a woman with a stutter or something came up to me last week and really honestly took about a minute to say anything. I just stood there thinking " oh god this is bad... argh say something ".
" Do you sell birthday cards? "
" No "
" Anne... I found them round here "
" I guess we do then "
"Do you think this lightbulb would fit in such-and-such a socket"
"eeerm I'll just go and check for you in the storeroom"
*disappears into storeroom and waits there until man has been given enough time to ask someone else and leave the shop*
The best one was this freaky old man telling me about how he had just finished cycling around Afghanistan and how we should always be "true to yourself"!
