Shame on you!
Shoppers!
There's been a lot of action here on Attention, Shoppers over the past couple of days. Thanks for reading, leaving your comments and sending emails.
One new reader mentioned that she is a cashier's worst nightmare as she is a dog owner and "requires" extra bags with no holes in them. WOAH. Shoppers, this is unacceptable. I've heard this excuse before - litter boxes, poop n' scoop - it's not our problem, shoppers. The grocery store does not owe you extra bags because you are too cheap to buy some glad kitchen catchers.
I've mentioned your fetish for helping yourself to produce bags - this is no different, shoppers. It really gets under my skin.
Until next time,
Friendly Neighborhood Cashier

Harsh, dude...
Why would they need extra bags when you can go home and just use the ones you had after you put the groceries away?
Am I totally off base here?
D.
PS...it's nice to see you back...how do i know if you don't tell me???
Oh man. Did I ever have an irritating shift tonight.
1. People who don't talk to you when you say "Hi, how are you?"
2. People who don't use the divider so their groceries get into the other person's groceries.
3. People who wet their money/credit card/debit card with their fingers and give you the wet end.
4. People who ask you if the meat is marked correctly because it says that it's 1.99/lb in the flyer and if you could double check but it is absolutely impossible since you are not the meat department and besides it says on the sticker; how much it costs. Moron, how did you get through life?
5. People who don't empty their baskets.
6. People who throw their money at you.
7. People who ask you to move the conveyer belt when there's a button right beside them.
Lucy, it's like you can read my mind. I almost fell off the chair laughing!!

I had a customer yesterday who believes that radiation is contaminating their food. Therefore, we are not allowed to scan any of their items, we have to manually punch in all the UPC labels. We all run when we see this person coming!
Holy flip. Radiation? You should inform them about all the other potentially more dangerous things in life. Cripes, that would take forever to manually punch in the UPC code, can you deny them that? DO YOU ACTUALLY PUNCH IN THE CODES MANUALLY?! TEDIOUS!
Speaking of paranoid people, at Sobeys, we have to ask for Air Miles and a lot of people bitch and complain, "I haven't won anything so I'm not going to enter.."
1. You're not going to win anything if you don't enter.
2. Think of the hundreds of thousands of other people out there who enter, what are the chances that you are going to win?!
And finally, some weirdos come in and they're all like, "No I don't believe in Air Miles, they use it to track down what you buy so they can use it against you."
Ohhhh boy.
You mean the fact that I love Our Compliments garlic/parsley dijon mustard could someday come back to haunt me? GOOD LORD, WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?!?
One of the things that' getting to me the most, is peple throwing their money at me. I get it more often than not. Maybe it's because I'm some sort of "brat" with a "not normal" haircut and those asses are businessmen. A friend told me she drops the change on the counter when they do that to her. That's what I've started doing. If they can't hand me the money nicely, why should I put the change in their extended hand? Oh yeah. Because I'm a slave to society. Scum in their eyes. And I need to give them good customer service so they come back. No I don't. They come back. (My store is probably unique in the sense that I don't actually *have* to be nice, I just should).
