Why, when in a rush on your lunch break in the supermarket, do you ALWAYS seem to pick the checkout with the STUPIDEST, SLOWEST, INBRED, DRIBBLING, UGLY bastad in the whole damn shop!?

The kind of person that when you buy something for, say, £4.99 and you give them a fiver, has to wait and check on the display how much change to give.

The kind of person that when you buy some apples leans on the scales bit with their scabby smelly elbow, meaning they have to try and re-weigh it about 5 times as it comes up with an error.

Argh!

And then, to top it all off, whe you leave the shop (still in a rush as the bank decided to only have ONE person working at lunch time, clever, eh?), two old people with those STUPID wheely shopping bag type things are standing in the door way chatting about bloody Ethel Down At Number 57.

I used to work part-time in a supermarket while I was doing my A-levels.

It's strange, when you're staff, all the customers annoy you, when you're a customer, all the staff annoy you.

Weird eh?

I worked for two weeks on the checkout in a supermarket, and then I left because I found myself coming home with a migraine daily, and every time I tried to get to sleep at night I could still hear the 'Beep...Beep' of products going through.

In checkout operators defence, it's not an easy job - it's very tiring. And the complaint about waiting for change generally occurs because they have to wait for the till to open. And dodgy scales - don't get me started on those...

Any one who works full time in a super market is going to be stupid.

I hate it when there is an old woman walking in front of you, but you know you can't just barge past her. Worst is, she knows you are there, and isn't the slightest bit interested. And also, the highlite of their day is reading the local deaths in the newspaper, and telling their other "auld geezers" about it. I think it helps their street cred

POP!

Purely for Wookiee's moment of comedy genius.

See it now, there won't be another 'til next year.

I never get Grannys standing outside the bank, I always seem to get little kids trying to run into me when I get in the door though.
