I'm a little irritated right now. I ran to the grocery store
and a trip that should have taken a total of 8
minutes ended up taking 30. All I wanted was
some ice cream and Cheetos!
Only one register was open, there was a line...
and that's fine, it IS midnight. Unfortunately, the guy
in front of the guy in front of me... I immediately
knew he was trouble. He was perfectly capable of
walking, yet he was crammed into one of those
Rascal-esqe shopping carts. The motorized one that
you sit in with the basket in front. He was also
yammering away on his cell phone, telling
somebody that "the rain made mah bones
tired, I ain't lazy!!!" I call bullshit on that
one buddy.
He moves up in line... and instead of putting
his 5 items on the belt... he hands them, one
by one, to Tony, my favorite checker. He
then proceeds to stop Tony from scanning
the item by asking him how much each item
costs. Then he changes his mind about the ice
cream (which he didn't need to begin with).
He's on his cell phone THE ENTIRE TIME.
That's one thing that really pisses me off.
Get off the damn phone you asshole, and
treat Tony like a person.
THEN... he whips out his food stamp
debit card thing. This guy is decked out
in Ecko gear, which I KNOW is expensive, and
some pretty badass Nike kicks. Which
probably set him back about $150 bucks. Or
more, I don't know, I sure can't afford
them.
FOOD STAMPS?!?! For ice cream and
cocoa puffs?
And, surpriiiiise!, there was nothing left
on the card. I thought the poor guy
in front of me with ONE ITEM was going to
lose it. I know the 8 to 10 people behind
me were ready to strangle the guy.
What the hell is wrong with people?
Eh? I'd like to know. Somebody tell me.
Please.
