This used to happen to me constantly at work, because there was always that handful of people who all decided to come to wal-mart at 3am to buy giant overflowing cartfuls of groceries. Having to waste half your lunch waiting in line is crap.Luke wrote:Screw 20 Items or less, there needs to be a line in grocery stores for people with 1 item. I always let the 1 itemers go ahead of me, a favor that hasn't been reciprocated.
I was in line last night getting a case of beer for my friends and I for MNF, and the lines were slammed. Two carts in front of me, both with overflowing carts. The meanie bo-feanies even looked at me and noticed I only had one, heavy item, and still proceeded to chuck their diabetes enabling groceries on the belt. I don't expect favors from everyone, but c'mon. There's a line between not being super nice, and then just being inconsiderate. And the poor clerk was working by herself, and had to bag all the groceries.
Recently though they've started opening up one of the 20 items or less registers during lunch hours so i'm able to just clear straight through, but still.
