If I am in a check-out line where there is .......
a senior with slow motor skills, no problem.
a shopper with a basket full of items, no problem (unless they are in the express lane)
a customer that needs to have a price check because the store screwed up, no problem.
however.......
I thought I had seen just about everything in a check-out line, but......
at the local dollar store, this thirty something woman was at the counter, with a pair of scissors, clipping coupons!
YES! There at the register! Had several pages of them from the local paper.
She would place a item from her basket onto the counter, look for the proper coupon, and then clip it out! One ---------- at ---------- a ---------- time ---------- it ---------- was ---------- so ---------- agonizingly ---------- slooooooow!
That was really weird! And the clerk said nothing, like move your arrogant self somewhere else and clip away. The other lane never opened, customers were piling up, some finally left the store, shots were fired, people screaming, black helicopters flying in.......
Now for the icing on the cake......she forgot something! She left the counter, finally returning with ........ more coupons!
These times are so all about ........ me me me, me me me, me me me.
