ITT: things that send you into a seething rage when visiting the supermarket.

When the parents have absolutely no control over their kids and let them run wild, touching all the produce with their feces encrusted fingers and dropping the food on the floor or just outright sneezing on it. I just saw this today and immediately walked out.

People who eat food before they pay for.

People who ''''''''''' it's just a sample' bro'''''''''' the bulk aisle and only end up sampling the bulk expensive nuts and all that.

Shoppers who don't say "excuse me", or "pardon me" to get an employees attention, but demand their obedience instead and not so much as say thank you (usually 30-50 year old women) I never worked in a grocery store before, but I'm sure the stockpeople and various staff deserve some respect in their workplace.

People who use massive carts but only buy maybe 20 dollars of food and drinks. use a basket you savages.

Old people leaving their carts angled so that they can effectively block off an aisle, as they stagger off down to the opposite end of the aisle

young people with groups of friends stumbling around the store talking to each other loudly, swearing. Always clutching onto their chis and energy drinks and wearing shitty grins. Sometimes I want to tell them that all the fun will be over by 17 and soon afterwards they will likely lose contact with their friends.

Teenagers who ironically grab the little 5 year old push carts.

Parents who spend more time with their kids wandering down the junk food aisle with heir kid then they do shopping produce, meats and dairy. All that shit they see imprints om their kids.

Cashiers who insist on commenting on what I purchase. I am not a fatass socially awkward whale anymore (I'm a socially awkward skeleton now) and I am always happy to fake a conversation with another person now, but commenting on things I buy gets to me. I find it's only the older cashiers who do it, so I avoid them as much as I can.

When it is not a purpose built supermarket and is a franchise set up in a building originally designed for something else.

There is one specific supermarket in my city that if you are down an aisle and someone wants to get past, you have to hug the display to let them. I used to go in it in my last job while waiting for the bus so used to have a rucksack on, it was a nightmare.

It just seems like it would contravene some sort of disability law as there is no way in hell that someone in a wheelchair could realistically shop there. I know small businesses get some leeway with that but a franchise of a multi-billion corporation?

People who wander around walking as if they're lost, but are not. They're walking suuuuuper slow, occasionally and suddenly just stop for no reason but plainly know where they're going. I don't expect everyone to be walking as briskly as me, but fuck's sake, at least keep moving. They're always young and able-bodied too. Fucking yokel chucklefucks.

This is the best thing to have happen. When they're not looking you make off with their cart and put it in the next aisle over. They get so confused you can almost see the thought cross their mind that they suddenly developed alzheimers.

When do they put out the fresh produce? The store I go to I can go at noon and they're still stocking it.
>>
>>7655905
Depends on the store, and when their shipments come in, I guess. The store I like is open before dawn. They stock the produce at like 5-6 am. It's fucking awesome shopping in the morning getting to pick the best produce items in the store that day. The produce guys always say good morning to me and have been leaving the nicest stuff on top for me now. I've noticed they do restocks midday. If you go after work, it's like night and day. It's definitely lesser quality produce by then. but it doesn't get marked down. Upside of evening shopping is the discounted meats. I'd rather have the better produce though.

Old people trying to use expired coupons,

I went food shopping today, there was this old fuck buying like 20 cans of beans because apparently, they were advertised in last week's flyer for like 30 cents less per can or some shit.

Any rate, he didn't seem to realize that the price from last week's flyer was no longer valid, given that it was Monday. The cashier tried to explain it to him, and he just didn't get it, and kept accusing the cashier of stealing from him and demanded to see the manager. Took like 20 minutes to get this fuck out of the way, and I was kind of stuck in line behind him because there were a bunch of other people behind me and all the other lines were long too.

I mean, the fucker must not have been saving more than 5.00 or so. Was that really worth pissing off every other fucking person in the store?

Produce should come first because you use some sanitary alcohol gel in the car to wash your hands so when you pick out your lettuce you won't contaminate it. Get it in the bag asap and then you're free to touch the filthy cans and boxes 1000 other people have already manhandled that day.

actually these can be quite nice, this supermarket near me had this entire big room that they couldnt just assimilate into the big square store shape so they decided to put everything a usual grocery store has there so while people crowded the meat, dairy, vegetables, drinks and candy isles this part of the market had a lot of open space between shelves, different music and a couple people buying making it feel more like a really nice small grocery store.
I remember this other one from my childhood that had a lower area you had to access with a ramp with all the snacks and candy.

Idiot cashiers who refuse to learn the goddamn produce.

There's a huge price difference with some apple types, for one thing.

Do you think I need to rub my hands all over the plant to pick one little leaf off? Literally the only part that's touched is going to be consumed by the person who touched it, autismo.

I try to avoid the supermarket, not because it sends me into a seething rage, but because my little ethnic and specialty markets have better stuff or better prices, often both. But the things that annoy me about the supermarket are:

- Most of what's for sale is crap. I don't need boxes of cereal, jars of spaghetti sauce, cans of corned beef, soda, deli meat, bad bread wrapped in plastic, snack foods or awful salad dressings and condiments. I just want to buy ingredients and cook my own food. Most of what's in the supermarket isn't ingredients.

- Waiting in line is one of those little indignities I do my best to avoid. It's common at the supermarket. I will avoid markets so poorly set up that waiting to pay for my shit is just built into the experience.

- The other customers are usually people I'd rather avoid. Because even if they're people I'd otherwise like when you put them under bad lighting and make them wait in line they become assholes. So do I. And the underpaid employees are really no better. So you've got a badly lit room full of mostly shitty food and assholes. Not a place I want to be.

Contrast that with an actual market where individual vendors who are generally proud of what they're selling and happy to interact with the customers who are enjoying the experience of shopping there. The supermarket is just fucking degrading.

I'm a pretty confident, successful dude, but the grocery store does make me feel awkward. Like a bunch of others have said, the commentary is annoying as fuck, whether it's from the cashier or other people. The men's shampoo is on the makeup aisle where I go. Almost undoubtedly, some chick always makes a comment to me about being in there, and I have to fake a shitty smile.

We have a guy right at the front door who tries to sell shitty grocery store sushi samples like they're a mansion in Beverly Hills - and he won't stop when you try to say thanks.

And yeah, the people who just eat and drink shit while they wander around... fuckin' control yourself. You can wait the 20 minutes you're in the store to actually make your purchase so some poor cashier doesn't have to pass along your half eaten food, if you even pay for it at all.

16 or even 17 is one that surprises me people would care about. The small local grocery store in my area sells bagged rolls, three in a bag for $1 with a price tag on the bag. Or you can buy them one at a time from the bakery proper in a different bag with slapped on sticker.
Sealed bag of rolls doesn't ring up a bag of rolls, it rings up as three individual items and then applies a discount. You walk up with 15 items or so you think and end up going two over because they did the system entry that way.
Some of the produce and other things have done the same thing, a sealed bag will ring up as multiple of the item for some reason.
>>
>>7656681
Oh, come on. Given the choice between waiting in line or not wouldn't you always choose not if it were a legit option and not going to cost you some outrageous amount of extra money? I don't know anyone who thinks lining up like a fucking jerk off is a good part of any experience.

People who want paper + plastic bags. For some reason this just annoys me very much, even though it has nothing to do with me. They often say something like "plastic bags always break", or that they aren't strong enough. I'm fucking convinced they're all liars, plastic bags have never broken for me, ever, no matter how much shit is in them. And yet it seems like every other customer thinks their plastic bags won't hold the groceries. I don't get it.

I worked in a supermarket before entered into the navy.

The thing that I fucking hated of that job was about the people who pick something to buy, but later regret it, and instead of putting the product where they found it, they simple put it around their near.

This chain of super cheap supermarkets moved into a tiny 19th century commercial walk-up type thing in the middle of a hipster neighbourhood. Non-food stuff is up three flights of narrow, rickety stairs, and the shitty ventilation/insulation means it's chokingly stuffy up there.

You lucky fuck. I have a 24h grocery store in my neighbourhood, but they stock the shelves at 10am, and (I think) 4pm. It's good around those times, but at any other time they'll be out of various staples and what produce remains will be 3rd rate crap that hasn't borne up to the furiously hands-on inspection of Chinese grandmas.

College students who use the self check out for their months worth of groceries. This happens at the store by my job and usually happens when I just got off and want to buy a six pack. Thankfully I skipped middle age and jumped right to old age, so I have no problem telling them how rude it is and generally being a grumpy asshole.

Anyone paying with EBT whose cart is full of red meat, sugary shit, frozen meals and generally processed bullshit. Surprise surprise they're all obese, so not only do I pay for their food, but when their fatasses have to go to the emergency room.

People who don't control their kids (I'm looking at you Mexicans who all pop out half a dozen). I've taken to either barking at the kids or lightly hitting them with my cart. I've gotten more than my share of nasty looks and I've had a couple mom's try to bitch me out. I usually just say, should have been watching your kids and walk away.

I agree with you when it comes to the supermarket. But when I shop at small businesses they prefer change and small bills because they tend to run low on those by evening. Also, many of the small shops (and a surprising number of restaurants) near me are still cash only. I only use a card at the supermarket, the gas station and the wine shop. Everything else I do is still in cash.

Also, when I'm standing in line waiting to put my groceries on the counter and that one inconsiderate asshole has to be so close behind you that he may as well try and snag my wallet.

For those people I like to act like I'm looking at the candy or something next to me, purposefully back up into them, then make a huge scene about how I didn't know they were so close.

When I was a cashier, it always annoyed me when an item was missing a barcode and I had to send someone to get another one, the customer would always just bark the price at me. It's not like we can just enter the price. We don't have that power. I understand if the customer doesn't know this, but I feel like more of them should know.

Also, my store always made us ask the customers for donations, to certain causes. I hated that, I think its so fucking trashy. But supervisors got mad if I didn't ask.

That's happened before. I usually just shut down my line and go on break but not before I explain to everyone in line behind you that since you refuse to follow basic rules since you're a special snowflake, they now have to go wait in a huge line as well for their 5-6 items.

At this point, the offender usually gets so flustered under the gaze of pissed off customers that they just wander off while mumbling how they're going to shop at Walmart from now on or something.

At my supermarket, they periodically have some promotion with some credit card company or another, and they'll be some asshole from the credit card company stalking the aisles looking for victims.

If you are unfortunate enough to stop around one of them for whatever reason or make eye contact, they will descend on you with their spiel about how good a deal this card is and if you tell them you don't need it, they'll tell you it's free so there's no reason not to sign up, and fucking hound you about it.

I had this one dude the other day, as soon as he started walking up to me I told him I wasn't interested, but he still launched into his spiel, and when I told him I wasn't interested again, he followed me for like 3 full minutes trying to explain why I needed this new card before he finally fucked off.

Fucking this.
I hate shopping with my wife.

I go in, grab what I want, browse for anything that might inspire me and I'm out in under 10 minutes.
With her I know it's going to take so long we'll have to take a fucking lunch break.

Maybe you should take an extra secong to look at more than just the price on the tag then.

Why are women always so slow to shop? It applies beyond just groceries.

Cashiers (both former and current), what is the lowest form of currency you accept without inwardly cringing? I had some rough years at school and had to pay in, like, 5-7 dollars in 25 cent pieces. The people I bought from were usually quite ok with it at least on the surface, but really is being paid in coin a hassle for you?

Fucking fatasses who go into the frozen shopping areas and pick stuff up with their clammy fucking hands. For example last week I was trying to grab some frozen meals for one and had to stand behind these two fucking slabs of shit. Went into the freezer afterwards and half the fucking meals were basically defrosted from the warmth of their bodies and disgusting bacon breath. I literally had to close the freezer and walk around for 40 minutes to them to return to frozen. I could have microwaved them and had less warmth. And this happens every time as well. I have started taking a thermometer shopping and measuring the temperature before and after fatasses lean in. The differences are often staggering. I fucking hate them. At least they aren't touching the fresh produce.

People who eat or drink in the store and hide their trash in random places on the shelves. I wonder how these sort of people were raised

People who bring in sales papers from 20 other stores for price matching

People who are next up in line, forget an item, send whoever is with them to go get it, and I have to wait because fuck you if you think you're going ahead of them
>>
>>7658458
To them shopping is literally an outing, an enjoyable experience.
To us it's just a means to an end.
>>
>People who feel the need to "graze" while shopping

people who do not grab a free pear or apple to eat while shopping. eating in an empty stomach is dumb.
>>
>people getting butthurt about people picking things up to inspect them
Jesus christ. I need to inspect my produce. I ain't going to buy shit just on looks. Fuck off back to your shitty little basements.

When I go over to portugal and spain they have little plastic disposable gloves that you use to pick up fresh pruduce with.

Maybe they'd be considered autistic, I would have tended to agree once upon a time.

However think of a time when you saw someone with a mental disorder, there are thousands upon thousands of them in every country so i'm sure you can remember.

Now consider that many have no problem with scratching their asshole, right aroung the ring with their bare fingers.

I bet you're looking favourably on their handler telling them to use gloves now though.

Have you considered that if no-oone ever saw you with toilet paper they'd think you wiped your arse with your hand like an indian, and then like an indian (perhaps) washed it afterwards.
>>
>>7658769
Portuguese currently living in Italy, can confirm, they also have those in Italy. People don't use them many times, but honestly, if you're just picking the stuff up and putting it in a bag it's fine not to wear it, but if you want to feel around for ripeness please put on a glove.
>>
>>7658767

Honestly, why do grocery stores even sell toilet paper? They don't sell toilets. People should go to Lowes or Home Depot to buy toilet paper.
>>
>>7658824
It's something people buy a lot, it makes sense a grocery store would carry it, just like other items that are not necessarily groceries but are still sold there. That way people stop by to shop their groceries and instead of going to buy TP or whatever at another story they simply buy it there.

You could think of toilet paper like an after napkin.
You need a napkin to wipe your mouth after you eat food so you must also need to clean up after the food comes back out!

It's not so much the fact that they have to have cart jockeys. It's the fact that these lazy assholes do this kind of shit everywhere they go. They can't be bothered to do the bare minimum to keep civilization going. As far as I'm concerned, people like that should lose their personhood status and be locked away, farmed for whatever resources society needs.

Men don't shop, we hunt for items to check off a list (of sorts). Women SHOP, I think it's some throwback behavior to satisfy that urge to check every bush to find just the right berry.

The have to go through and examine every single thing because. I can't tell you how many times I've heard "I don't need this" while watching a woman pick something up to examine it. This is worst with clothes.
>>
>>7658484
I'm fine with basically everything but checks, though if you tell me you're cleaning out your purse and take ten minutes to dig out a dollar in nickels there will be some silent jaw grinding going on. I think it's more a time thing though; people needing to dig out their wallets/cards/coupons like the fact that they need to pay me is a surprise irks me too.

You had five minutes in line (I know, we're sorry) to get your shit together so you wouldn't have to stand around more. C'mon.

The guy in the express lane going slow.

"20 items or less" and some old lady walks up with a full cart no shame while I'm behind herwith two things.

Then she writes a check to pay for it.

>things that send you into a seething rage when visiting the supermarket

I moved about two weeks ago and my current neighborhood has a very strange trend. Brown families for whom shopping is a family event. Grandparents, uncles, aunts, parents, cousins; a fucking swarm of 8-15 brown people with multiple shopping carts yelling and going all over the place. They take up so much room, are so loud, and so disruptive, when they come, I have to stay at least 10 meters away.

>when the cashier comments on your food and tells you that "it's nice to see you know how to cook, most people your age just buy frozen dinners"

To be fair, I have a serious case of baby face - 25 but look barely 18..
>>
>>7657872
I've done this a few times too, especially if I'm only buying a few items. There's a grocery store near my house that closes these down not much past 8pm, it's ridiculous for a place open until 11pm that always has massive lines.
>>
>>7658458
Women are more likely to browse, deciding what they want as they're going. Men are more likely to know exactly what they want and grab it. It's the opposite for my wife and I, I love looking at different things at the grocery store, she has her list sorted by aisle and grabs everything in one go.

When I was working at a grocery store stocking shelves during the graveyard shift I did not give a fuck. I'd often just stick fastfood bags or empty energy drink cans behind shit.

Okay, good to hear that. I always figured it was an inconvenience and had all the coins sorted out before I even entered the store to save as much time as possible.

Or posting on /co/ when you don't watch children's television.

>>7660039
You don't have to watch any films at all to have something to post on /tv/, because they also talk about television shows there. Because it's television and film, not television or film.

And just like /ck/, that is the cancer that's killing the board. If you do not watch at least 100 films a year - and this is generous as fuck - you DO NOT BELONG ON /tv/. It honestly should be closer to 200.
