1. You know to ignore the low paper warning as it starts appearing about 3 days early.

2. You want to hit the people who, when you ask if they have a Clubcard say "No, but I've got this," and then hand you their key-fob.

3. You buzz for someone on headset as soon as you see a gold pineapple on the belt, simply because not one has a barcode.

4. You never expect to find a £5 note in your till.

5. You don't expect to find any pens when you get to a till either.

6. You know a LOT of PLU numbers and barcodes for stuff.

7. You wonder why the till asks you if you have double scanned something in error when the only items people seem to buy in 2's is bacon, mince meat and batteries.

8. You would like to meet the knob from Pringle who has put that other barcode at the bottom of Pringles pots.

9. You don't know why you bother swiping the old-style clubcard.

10. You hate asking people so many questions.

11. You want to slap people who expect every item they find on a reduced shelf to be reduced even if it doesn't have a yellow sticker on it.

12. You always end up writing a shopping list of things you're going to get on your break or for when you finish, based on what the customers you serve buy.

13. Even when people give you their clubcard at the beginning, you still ask for it at the end...But sometimes stop yourself mid-sentence "Have you got a...oh yeah its alright I’ve already done it" leaving the customer bewildered.

14. Or you sometimes find yourself saying "There's your card and your receipt..." when just handing back someone’s clubcard, out of sheer habit...

15. You wonder why people don't seem to notice that they've put the wrong PIN in?! You heard that 'incorrect beep' so why didn't they?

16. You have to help customers open the carrier bags because they can't manage themselves.

17. The most interesting parts of your day are when a glass jar of something drops off the belt, and when you get taken off for your break.

18. You've already thought up an excuse why you can't do overtime before someone comes round with the sheet.

19. When someone comes round with the Team 5 sheet that you've already read, you read it again just to get off a till for a few minutes.

20. You remember a time before having to get a supervisor to void things.

21. If there are lots of the same items on the belt, you alternate the items you scan so you don't have to wait for the delay on the scanner, and because you're too lazy to put in the quantity.

22. You wonder why it is customers ask you for permission to go and get items they've forgotten...

23. Customers will always ask you if you are open when you quite blatantly are, and will always ask you if you are closing even when the barrier is closed, they've just watched you do a pod, and you're leaving the till!! :@

24. You don't ask some customers for clubcard because they don't look like the 'type' to have one (usually 30 something men who look builder-ish, or they have only spent something silly like £1.24 so you don't justify asking) then they turn round to you and say "You didn't ask me for my clubcard", to which you reply, with an anguished look on your face, sorry! You'll have to go customer services to get the points put on... Just goes to show you can't second guess who has a clubcard and who doesn't :-|

25. You act as NORMALLY as possible whenever somebody buys either: a pregnancy test, or condoms. Or if two middle aged men come to your till with a big shop, and they're obviously not just mates. You scan solidly, without making eye contact and or conversation

26. When doing a Pod and having a massive stack of notes in your hand, you've considered on more than one occasion making a quick dash for the exit.

27. You've been to work still pissed on a Sunday or severely hungover! *belch*

28. You get annoyed by the customers who usually have a few items yet seem to insist on waiting until you've scanned it all and put

EDIT

*oops*


I'm going to have a smoothie.

I like music:

Bolero - the instrumental for the credits of Moulin Rouge.. absolutely amazing.

MUSE!<--my two favourite bands--> RAGE!

LOVE classical music, especially really loud forceful stuff that you can play in your room when you're alone in the house and you can jump around the place in your knickers!


I like picking up things and playing them. But especially the keyboard, piano and banging on my drums..Singing is fun too! IR BABOON!
