Her pet peeve is customers who sling everything on the belt regardless of what it is so she's playing hunt the thimble in order to pack it properly.

I always put the heavy stuff on first...crisps and bread last. :angel:

I always put mine on the belt in the correct order that I want it packed. So it's even more annoying when they still manage to put the lighter stuff on the bottom even though I put the heavier stuff through first.

Yeah, that does my nut too. What a waste of bags.

No crisps...I'm British and they are crisps and always will be. Chips are what I get from the chippy back home. :)

If we lose those it will kill the 4X4 off road industry. You know those pickups you need a 4 foot ladder to get into. Overcompensation.

These were customers, one time when I was a cashier and checking them out and yesterday sitting at my desk after doing my presentation. :frown:
