    JF has the same pet peeves as I do. Back in the 80s I used to hate people paying by credit card as well. Back then, cards weren't being scanned, cashier had to check the credit card against a book that had a list of bad credit card numbers and it took a while.

    I work as a cashier and he hit the nail on the head with this rant, especially the "it must be free" joke. Some guy pulled that on me today and I just said in a very dry, condescending tone "Dude, you're hilarious". He just went "oh come on", like I was the asshole. Fuck these people.

      Spot on! LOL! One of my late uncles used to say a certain phrase with alarming regularity. He'd say, "Fuck 'em and feed 'em fish heads." I never knew just what in the hell it meant. But I just love the way that it rolls off of the tongue.

      I also worked at a supermarket for years as a teenager. The amount of stupidity I encountered was staggering. Probably the most annoying thing was when I started bagging the order in plastic bags, the moron would say "no, no, I want a bag!". I'd say "what do you mean? this is a bag...". "no, no I want paper". Give me a frigging break. And people that pay by check should not even be allowed in a regular check out lines.

    And one thing we used to do in the younger days (when we could run fast) find an unattended cart in the middle of the aisle, where the shopper is browsing twenty feet away, walk up to the cart, run away with it 10 aisles away and park it (or somewhere, like behind the bread display in the bakery) and run out the store. Damn those days were fun; wish we could have Tik-Toked that but it was the 90s.

    My biggest pet peeve is the one Jim mentioned where they don't bother putting a 6 pack of soda, water container, laundry detergent bottle etc. in a bag just because they're bulk items with their own handles. When I ask them to, they look at me inquisitively with that weird face of "but it has it's own handle". I then have to politely explain to them that by putting it in a bag, it makes it easier to carry with all the other bags looped around the same hand together. I have to then stifle a laugh when the cashier get's that astonished look of amazement of "DUH!! YOU'RE RIGHT! WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT!" LOL

    I'm sure Florentine knows this by now, but the idea that you can shield kids from wanting junk food is a bit naive. My boss raised her kids on fruit and vegetables but whenever they would go to their friends houses they would have junk food. So when they got older and could buy their own food they went fucking nuts like drug addicts. Teaching kids about moderation and self-control is a more powerful lesson than keeping them quiet in a grocery store.

What do you say?" and I have to stand there and wait, I don't have time for this shit.

    There is a reason why they put milk in a bag and not water, it's because the milk is cold and moisture condensates on the outside of the jug and so therefore if you put it in your car it collects dust and lint, but the jugs of water don't. But beyond that because of the cost of bags supermarkets are trying to save wherever they can on the bags so that they don't have to start charging you for the bags like they do in California. So they try to save wherever they can. so I agree with everything you said except for the part about milk jugs and water jugs, they're not the same thing
