being on such a forum, its understandable that you feel more inclined to open up and share feelings you wouldn't feel comfortable about sharing in real life. the anonimity of it and the fact that you cant see the people directly that you're talking to etc etc

so theres really nothing wrong, to me anyways, for people to share such thoughs. it only makes a community like this richer.


Cheers :D
I understand where you are coming from, Kingswood. If it is a general issue that you are seeking advice on rather than just a veiled post which really has the intent to hurt, have a go at or criticize another particular poster within the forum then I am all for it. What pisses me off is people who post on here regarding family grievances just to try to belittle or put down a particular family member.

Cheers

7.The person in front of you at the checkout who doesn't seem to realise they were supposed to pay. Guess what dickhead, you went into the shop, took items to the checkout, the person has scanned them and bagged them for you, the next step is you are supposed to pay for them. Did you not think that far ahead? You did? You knew that? Then why the hell do you need to wait for the person to tell you how much it all is before it occurs to you to reach into your handbag or pocket to launch a sudden search mission for your wallet? And then, after eventually triumphantly producing it like a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat, you then deliberately start counting the cash; continually looking up at the amount on the checkout display in case it changes, count all your coins on the counter; realise you're $3.75 short so you start digging thru the bottom of the handbag/pockets looking for more coins before finally realising you don't have enough. So you carefully put all the money away again then start a seach for an EFTPOS card that you can remember the PIN for. You, my addlebrained friend, are a walking excuse for justifiable homocide.


will agree there i am the person on the other side and cop lots of that , just had a lady who each week does it i have left my card at work and i need to take things off can we start again so we cancel the order and she nearly puts it all back on again each week the same i think she is up to no good but have not worked it out yet when i do ......



6.Women in shopping centres.
Youre having a day out. I'm so happy for you. Would it be too much to ask that you could walk in something resembling a straight line instead of zig zagging back and forwards like a frigging pinball? I'm sorry; I can't read your mind, I like books with a plot, so I have no frigging idea where you're going and don't see why I need to be doing something resembling breakdancing on acid just to avoid running into you or stepping on you. And I'm rapt that you bumped into that friend you hadn't seen since yesterday but do you really need to have your conversation standing right at the bottom of the escalator in everyone elses road?
seen guys do this too

Spikey, maybe next time you see that pain in the arse customer be sure to say, before you even put anything through, "Can you make sure you can afford this before I put it through please?". She'll realise she's been caught out and you don't have to waste time with the dim wit. I used to work in a shop too and I found that prevention is better than cure when it comes to morons.

i did ask her how much she would spend so i could keep an eye on it she said she would be right then when nearly finished changed her mind i think she does it purposely to piss us off [ i think she has been caught stealing had a second bag and when i asked to fill it there were 2 expensive things in it ]

she always put the deli stuff back i said i will not delete the deli item,
she eventually paid for $35 dollars worth,
then went to service desk and got a refund on guess what the deli she wanted to get a refund on the milk then changed her mind and re bought it

i did not hide my annoyance either so she knew that i was getting a bit mad at her will tell my supervisor and next time make sure she has he card and money with her
