Idiots at the till
Discussion
Why are there so many of them nowadays? why are they incapable of just buying something without a life changing drama?
Mostly it happens in petrol stations, but the disease seems to be spreading to everywhere now. I (used to) use Toolstation all the while but have had to stop going in because of the dicks that waltz up to the counter and want to see every item on the shelves before they commit to spend their 50p. For the uninitiated its like Argos, you look through a catalogue, write the number down and give the sheet to the bod behind the till who goes and gets it.
I have just stopped off for a couple of pints and the tt in front at the bar wanted something to eat, the menu lists everything they microwave so it should be simple, but oh no, he wanted 2 curries but half and half of something or other. Just why, the barmaid had to leave what she was doing and go and ask the "chef". FFS why does everyone have to make everything so complicated.
take dinner time today for example, we parked up in a local car park today, the space was next to some yellow hatchings, now despite the car park being half empty just as we were about to reverse out some arseole in a Q7 tried to park next to us in the hatchings, the gap was obviously way too small so we had to wait until they engaged their brain.
What I'm asking is I go out of my way to try and make my life as simple as possible, why do others not want to do the same. Yes I appreciate I'm not the most patient of people and I need to chill out or I will be dead by forty etc. etc. but for fks sake is there any need to go through life being such a wker.

Cash machines
Just what are they doing?
Is there a hidden Snake easter egg built into them I'm unaware of?
Thats another one, is it even possible to have that many different bank accounts, every time the get one card out, check the balance, get a tenner, get a receipt. You step forward because they have obviously finished and they pull another card out, what the fk, this goes on for about 10 minutes.Just what are they doing?

Not experienced any of these problems. Although there was a tt tutting behind me in Toolstation the other day.
I was using my business card to buy stuff for my business, and my personal card to buy other stuff for myself, (accountant gets a bit pissy if I use my business card for stuff that shouldn't be) and returning some items I didn't use, and I think I jokingly asked for cashback. And then they didn't have one of the items I wanted, but I needed it that day, so I got them to check the stock in the other stores, as I was driving past one later that day. And then I noticed they had Black Buckets on offer, so I bought 2 of those, one on each card.
All the time this bloke is tutting behind me. fkwit.

People working in shops standing around doing nothing ignoring the "Assistance Needed" "Assistance Needed" "Assistance Needed" "Assistance Needed" "Assistance Needed" recording.Then looking surprised when someone says "Can I have some assistance?".
