One Liner Wednesday – Hurry Up!

Posted byChristine BoltonPosted inBlog, One Liner WednesdayTags:, , ,

Today I was at the grocery store and the self-serve registers were all busy so I stood in line at a regular check out. There was just one lady in front of me and she was about done. Well I thought she was. Right as the cashier swiped the the last item and hit the total button, the lady started talking about where she was from, and what is was like way back when, blah blah blah. Of course the cashier paid absolutely no attention to the growing line behind me. They were having a good old time jawing away like a couple of cackling hens. Then, just when I thought she was finished and about to pay, she pulled out a check book. Who does that these days? Not only was it a check she wanted to write, it was an out of state check. Arghhhhh! 😦 Need I say more? I left my items on the conveyer belt and walked out.

    1. Oh Chuck do we shop at the same store? LOL. Seeing as I live in the senior state (FL) this is a common occurrence 😳 I have started to enjoy self service checkouts to the point I am disappointed if they are all full. 🤣

      1. My condolences for having the same type of crazy Governor as I have to live with here in Texas. I’ve come to like shopping earlier in the morning. It helps a little. I avoid self service because they are putting people out of work. I just wish that checkers had to pass a speed test on a 10 key so they could prove that they have the skills needed. Just me! Hope you are having a great day! 😊💕🌹

        Our respective governers are like the evil twins. Both are Trump wannabes 😡
        Hope you’re well too my friend 💕☀️
