How are they allowed to do this invasion of privacy? What do I say I have autism and they are harrassing me whatever I say I will get in trouble, I'm losing weight and just wanted to buy groceries. Is there a government agency that can make this stop?I have to drive an extra 20 miles to go to grocery with auto checkout

After trump was elected the whole city felt like a haze. I started crying while I was doing my weekly grocery shopping, and the first person to grab me and hug me and tell me everything was going to be was a checkout clerk. That's when I knew that the world is still good and that we would come together to fight this once and for all.

I watched some show on HBO called high maintenance and the first episode of season 2 is the entire New York City supposedly having some kind of mental breakdown because of the election but becoming closer because of it.
It was one of the most absurd and stupid things I had ever seen and it made me geniunelly hate all New Yorkers.
i was just having fun with it and pointing out the absurdity of people who actually live and think like weak little faggots.
Hope this helped your understanding my friend.

Why the fuck are people like this?
I don't work retail but I notice it when some cocksucker has left frozen food on a shelf, or left a carton of milk in the freezer etc.
It's vandalism. It serves no purpose.
I don't like shoplifters either, but I can at least see they have something to gain. Goddamn.

The other day I was in a fairly small grocery store. The shopping baskets are in a little niche by the entrance door and one person can block you off from getting to them entirely.
So of course some cunt decided to stand right there and read that weeks sales flyers. I started out with just a quiet "ahem" but eventually had to cough up a damn lung just to make her notice me. She took a 2-inche step to the side and kept reading so I still had to almost climb on her damn back to grab a basket. I'm a nice guy but I did eventually "get out of the fucking way, you stupid fuck".
I fucking hate people.

I don't get it. You bought coffee. The cashier said it smelled good. You recommended the coffee. For some unexplained reason the cashier then blushed. The only thing I can see is that it was a cup of brewed coffee and you offered her a sip but that's insane. Or was it supposed to be an implied invitation to your house for coffee? But that's also ridiculous, you're literally in the store where they sell the coffee, how would anyone not think automatically ah yes I could go buy some of that coffee that's at the store I work at on my break or after my shift. What kind of nutcase would see this as anything but a simple recommendation? Is the joke that black people can't blush?

I don't really have any peeves. When people put colds on the dry shelf I just go "oh well" in my head and damage it out. I guess my least favorite things are when customers just assume I'm trying to get out of here or that I hate my job and want to go home. Like when they say shit like "Ready to get out of here?" or "Almost out of here? Oh you just came in? That sucks". I'm just like... not really. If I didn't want to be here I would find myself a better job.

Another thing I don't really like would maybe be if my coworkers don't hold up their end. Like if they're on the duty for putting groceries back that people didn't want anymore, and while they're doing that they neglect to pick up items that people placed in the wrong spot. Or at the end of the night when we tidy up the shelves and they do a rushed job with incorrectly faced products because we "want to go home". Fuck you, I do too but this is my store too and I'm not putting up with this half-assed shit. You want to go home? Close up your availability to not have to work closing shifts.

Attempted scammers are annoying too because they think I'm fucking stupid.

As being a bagger for kroger in the past, I can confirm this. If you work harder than most with the carts, you are rewarded by being asked to go out and push during the busiest times, or when the other person pushing carts is slow and let shit get out of hand, leaving you to feel like a dickhead with a line of impatient customers waiting for a cart. Same goes for being a fast bagger., all the lazy co workers leave you stranded with the cashiers that scan ridiculously fast with no organization. I remember some of those fuckers wouldn’t even put eggs or bread on the side for you, they’d just check as fast as they could and let shit get crushed.

You're a fluke. Most people outside of containment zones will never experience gun crimes, or know someone who has.

The closest I came to it was someone contacting me ten years ago and telling me someone who bullied me in gradeschool got shot over money in a drug neighborhood. How many hundreds or thousands of people do you make contact with by the time you hit thirty?

Don't turn this shit into /pol/, I'll get banned again for posting crime statistics someone doesn't like.

Seriously. People who have trained at a firing range are much better off than a thug with gun. Most people think they're easy to aim but would probably move the whole gun while pulling the trigger, missing a person 20 feet away. Real life is not a video game.

Video games can teach basic things like how the firearm operates, how to hold it, how to aim, and even that you need to recover between shots. Congrats, you're no longer a retard that can't hit a still target on the other side of a room without several rounds and luck. Hell, let's give you a rifle and you can hit something across a field, maybe several things if we give you a large magazine.

It's no substitute for actual training, but it's far better than just picking up a rifle without knowing where the magazine release is.

Burger in Japan here: most of my students are afraid of traveling to America because they believe everyone has a gun.
That isn't helped by the fact that there's a very famous case (in Japan, not America we don't give a fuck) where a Japanese student was killed when he went to the wrong house trying to go to a party in the US.

nah, it's worse... in most stores here, there's always an attendant on hand... at the slightest sign of a problem (including shitty touch screen), they're breathing down your neck...

Also, scanning out stuff as something else doesn't work here, there's a control scale next to the "register", if the scale and register don't match within a set tolerance, it sets off an alarm, often one that can be heard in the entire store.... fuck self service

>the harder and more consistently you work, the more you become furniture in the eyes of everyone you work with.
This isn't limited to retail... it's just as bad in IT and basically any other place. The reason I quit my sysadmin job was because I basically ended up as a blur running between the server room, my office, the data center and 8 entitled as fuck department heads... and got treated like shit for it. It sure as fuck didn't help that the boss moved my 2 tech apprentices to other departments without asking or even informing me ahead of time... And oh,yeah we had to clean the kitchen as well because boss didn't want to pay the kitchen lady/cook an extra fucking hour each day.

Another confirm from me. The bumfuck town where I grew up had 5 shops (butcher, vegetable shop, kiosk/video rental, supermarket and a pottery store) when parents and myself moved there. When we moved away, it was just the supermarket.
At some point the kiosk closed down and got replaced with a pizza place, which was run by a *gasp* immigrant. It basically incited a youth rebellion. The owner was a really cool guy with the kids in town and the place became THE place to hang out.
However, anybody above 50 (basically half the town, including the local mayor and the local battalion of christfags) hated him, though. After he was basically forced to close down and move away, there was a huge wave of vandalized property in town, for the most part targeted at this group...

I was basically taught how to shoot and use guns by video games. Just being able to line up the sights properly makes you able to hit anything else than a barn door at point blank range.
