Always Right, Even With Other Customers
(I’m a customer putting my groceries on the conveyor belt, and I realise I’ve forgotten one item. Half-way through loading my stuff onto the conveyor, I stop, and sprint across the store to pick up this item. As I get back, two little old ladies have put a separator immediately behind my groceries.)
Me: “I’m sorry, I’m not quite finished. I forgot an item.”
Old Lady: “Oh, it’s okay. I’ve just put this here.” *points at the separator*
Me: “But I need more space for the rest of my groceries. Can you move your stuff back, please?”
Till Assistant: “‘Scuse me, love, he’s not finished.”
Old Lady: “I KNOW! I’VE JUST PUT THIS HERE!” *points at the separator*
Me & Till Assistant: “Huh?”
Old Lady: “Oh, never mind! We’ll go to another till! We can’t wait for HIM and HER to finish their rubbish!” *storms off*
(Seriously, WTF?)
