It has always amazed/distressed me how ridiculous and ignorant some people can be, and it has come to my realization today that the majority of the people I find ridiculous and ignorant are people who shop at 'nameless local supermarket' on Saturday mornings.
I hate:
1) People who don't say 'hello' or 'thankyou', or even acknowledge that you are right there, providing a service for them. I always express their gratitude for them, by shouting 'THANKYOU' loudly as they leave.
2) People who act as if it is YOUR fault if THEY don't have enough money.
3) People who accuse you of trying to charge them twice when they haven't even given you their card yet!
4) People who spend about ten minutes counting out the exact change in 1ps and 2ps.
5) People who put all their shopping on the till roll to secure their place in the queue, then spend about ten minutes going round the shop trying to find the items that they conveniently forgot, holding up a large queue of people.
6) People who have forgotten their purse, leave their shopping with you, then come back an hour later and expect to be able to jump the queue.
7) People who come to your till just as you are about to close it, then either spend ages trying to gather together their money from several places (various pockets, shoes, bags, bodily orifices, etc.) or give the money to their small child to 'give to the lady on the till', both of which take a bloody long time, and by the time they have FINALLY paid and left, MORE customers have appeared, and you have to STAY on the till.
8) People who make ridiculous requests e.g. 'I came in a minute ago and bought an ice cream for my son, he's eaten half of it and the stick has just fallen out, can we swap it for one with a stick?'
9)People who make sarcastic comments when you ask them if they want any plastic bags for their shopping, e.g. 'What else am I going to carry it home in?' I feel like saying; "Well, SOME people actually CARE about the environment..."
10) People who leave their eco-friendly bags in the car, then make the same joke about leaving their eco-friendly bags in the car EVERY Saturday morning.
Dickheads, lol.
Nandos later, can't wait xxxx
