Went food shopping last night. Food was being scanned by checkout girl. She paused, lifted her top slightly, trousers undone and started adjusting her belly button ring. Then proceeded to scan my food, whilst giving me a weak, pathetic smile. Did she want sympathy? Grim! Shock

cinders456 · 27/02/2015 14:11

Atleast it's not just me then. Think my face was probably a picture. Should have said something, but seriously what CAN you say to that?! Bizarre.

Sometimes I have to actively not think about such things Bored.

In restaurants or fast food places I try very hard not to think of how many people don't wash their hands after going to the loo.

cinders456 · 27/02/2015 14:43

Yes, goes through my mind too. Eww

The80sweregreat · 27/02/2015 16:04

its a shame you didn't have some hand gel in your bag- I may have been tempted to say ' can you give your hands a wash with this please'.. ? I am like that thatbloodywoman I do try not to think too much if people are being clean after they go to the loo then give me my food in a restaurant or wherever! I bet a lot don't, in a rush to get back on duty, not really been shown how to wash them properly etc. we just have to hope for the best!

TranquilityofSolitude · 27/02/2015 16:07

Once I was at the till and instead of handing me my receipt the cashier folded it up, used it to scoop a bit of gunk out the corner of her eye, and then gave it to me!

judypoops · 27/02/2015 16:12

Shock at the eye gunk receipt and the coin up someone's butt! Grin

Boofy27 · 27/02/2015 16:19

Are there official figures available for the percentage of coins in circulation that have been inserted into orifices?

fluffygreentail · 27/02/2015 16:24

Are you repulsed when someone check out your groceries who has a cold sore?

fluffygreentail · 27/02/2015 16:24

Yes, a bit unpleasant.

fluffygreentail · 27/02/2015 16:25

or a wart on their finger?

lithewire · 27/02/2015 16:30

Do you mean she undid her trousers in front of you or were they already undone? I'd have been a bit Hmm at someone casually unzipping in public!

cinders456 · 27/02/2015 20:16

She lifted her top up and her trousers were obviously undone too. She wasn't discreet at all and the smile was a pathetic, "poor me", "I want your sympathy and I'm trying to show off my new belly ring" kinda grimace!

cinders456 · 27/02/2015 20:20

Don't know about the wart/coldsore scenario.. hmmm.. will be on the look out now :/

OP posts:
judypoops · 28/02/2015 07:11

The wart/coldsore scenario is very different to someone fiddling with a crusty piercing though Grin

cinders456 · 28/02/2015 07:23

Judy, true. Very true. The only 'Crusty' I want to see when I shop is of the baked goods variety.
