Ways to Annoy your Grocery Clerk #1 – Express Lane

by PkWynn on September 16, 2009

There’s nothing more annoying than hearing random people telling you the same thing on a daily basis. Especially if it’s a lame joke that you’re supposed to laugh so the customer can be a bit comfortable of what they’re doing.

A customer comes into my checkout line and unloads his groceries only to find out that my line is a 10 items or less express line.

Customer: Oops, looks like I have 11 items! Hahahahahha…

Me: LOL … I haven’t heard that one before!

Customer: Hahahaha … I’m such a comedian!

Me:: Hahahaha… you’re killing me!

Customer: Hahahahaha…

Me: Alright … paper or plastic?

    me-hey! how’s it going?

    I used to work at a hardware store and when ever someone purchased anything with a final total of less than a dollar they would always say: “Big purchase of the day”

    my favortie was hostessing at a sports bar. when we had a wait, we handed out the little squares that lit up and buzzed whenever your table was ready. The thing was, every time you took it off of the charger, it would buzz and light up to let you know it was working. EVERY SINGLE TIME I handed one to a customer they would say “Looks like my tables ready!”
    Finally I just got in the habit of holding onto it until it was done buzzing before handing it over. The customers looked disappointed when I did that but it was worth it to avoid that LAME joke.
