Bairnardo Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I've seen some 5 packs of crisps in the shops. The robbing b*****ds are charging the same price as a 6 pack. Stealth shrinking the size or number of products is presumably easier to sneak past the customer than a blatant price hike. Passports be blue soon though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endless fun when I realised with the wife texting me every 10 mins going “ah think the tellys haunted, keeps changing channels and going off”.

Bonksy+HisChristianParade Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 People who pay with cash at a self scan. Trying to push their crumpled fivers into the machine, absolute shambles.

For some reason I always think of using a PA as cheating. The only busker I've given money to was a guy in Samuel Johnson's home town of Lichfield who was annoying the townsfolk and the ghost of old Fatty know it all by playing the bagpipes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That transaction clearly takes longer. Honestly it’s just some old codger usually trying to use a self scan with cash, looking round bewildered for a member of staff when their ragged old notes get rejected by the machine. They should use the tills like the other old people scared of technology and leave me to go about my day unhindered.

Search for card, figure out which way card goes in, get the pin wrong, repeat a few times. I'm usually standing behind trying not to look pissed off, face masks help with hiding this. Hand over some cash, get your change and off you go. I just use self service if I've only got a few items and the other tills are busy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Hate this shit. We have quite a few workers who take more than what they should break wise cause they need to go for a smoke. Fresh air breaks are teckle now I used to tell my boss that whenever I saw anybody ripping the push with fag breaks I would stop for a coffee citing my long term caffeine addiction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Literally none of these steps are required by a functioning adult. In fairness, many OAP’s aren’t fully functioning adults. I remember working the till during my B&Q days and old folk would do exactly as Bennett has described. Fumbling about for the card, putting it in back to front, forgetting their pin. You would just prefer it if they handed over a note. The worst was when they wanted to pay by cheque. Laughable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean they should fuckaround with their phone instead? They should raise the £45 limit on card tapping to £100 imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
