Brilliant! The ASDA near me has the most polite, genial, cheery staff of any shop I've ever been in!

The one here has the most aggressive car park I have ever been in. Of course a car park can't be aggressive as such, but the design doesn't encourage a calm approach to getting round it.

Of course this thread isn't really about Asda but I thought I'd bump it up a bit because it amused me.

Well since you started this Asda thread you did get me started!

You know the self services tills? There are two lots back to back so picture it:
2 ss tills on left
2 ss tills on the right backing onto
2 ss tills on the left
And 2 ss tills on the right

Yes??

So? There should be TWO QUEUES!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONE for the block of 4 tills on the left and ONE for the block of 4 tills on the right!!!!

So why do people insist in forming ONE QUEUE keeping a head up like a meerkat with spasticated cross eyes trying to catch the next till to become available all along whilst the ONE QUEUE keeps getting longer and longer backing into the back of the bakery oven and the tills assistant completely oblivious of it all is always dressed in stupid fancy dresses???????


When you go to the petrol station you dont wait outside the forecourt for the next available pump out of 12 do you?????


This bothers me even more than the people using the ss BASKET ONLY tills with a double decker trolley and the shopping to feed an army!!

Thats it I said it. Going to get my blood pressure pill now.

Yay ...supermarket hell in its full glory...

Why don't they.turn the beeps off on the tills...it must drive the staff crazy.

....And now the weather...

To be honest, I've never thought about it much as the hell of actually having to USE one of those machines is enough Karma as it is!

Ahh yes! I have heard of this, my butler told me about it once. Public Transport, what novel idea, I wonder if it will catch on.

 

[EltonFrog]

I have just been reminded, I knew a chap once, not quite the full shilling if you know what I mean, he walked into a Marks & Spencer store and at the top of his voice shouted ASDA! It was a bold and silly thing to do, I must visit him one day, he was such fun!

Many of whom work in the Public Sector and possibly even are idle, feckless benefit spongers too idle to rise from the sofa in front of the flat screen telly watching, or even appearing on, the Jeremy Kyle show (which I am told is a work of the Devil) ... where was I..
