About Me

I’m 28 years old working as a supervisor in a major supermarket. I started off going to college at 18 and somehow I manage to drift off only to be stuck for 10 years working in a grocery store. These are a collection of my stories.

    hey paul,

    this site is awesome! I work at a Trader Joes, and I just started my own grocery-related blog. I’m glad to find other like-minded folk out there. Keep up the radness!

    A guy in Georgia told me about your web page and I find it enjoyable to read.I worked in a Super Value store until I was fired for telling a lady to bag her own grocerys after repacking hers three times.It went like this. ME: here are your bags mamm. Customer: can you show me what you put in each bag.Me: looking in bagI gave her a rundown.Customer:can you take every thing out so I can see it again,I may have forgotan something.Me; ok thinking to myself I get paid by the hour. Customer: I guess every thing is there.Me: Ok great,I repack her grocerys.Customer: Can you seperate the cookies I am bringing my daughter some of these.Me: Mamm how would you like your bags packed? Customer:How should I know do I look like a minimum wage flunky.Me: I am done with you have a great day.Customer to manager: that man was so rude to me.Manager to me: Go punch out your fired.Me; ok and I will not let the door hit me in the ass.

    Hi there. I’m the woman with the adoption blog you posted on recently and I just wanted to say thanks for the kind note. You’ve got a great blog here! Someday if I decide to talk with a grocery store clerk about our adoption efforts, I hope they’re as kind as you are. All the best!

    Hello, I am a grocery checker-outer in Toronto, Canada.
    I had an elderly woman last night refuse to allow me to scan her items. She would not tell me her objection to the scanner, just held up the items for me to manually punch in the 13 digit codes for each of her 20+ items. Have you ever encountered this problem?

    Does she know something about the scanners that I do not? HUH? Weird!
