to be irritated y the checkout people who stop scanning my shopping and start skipping through my newspaper?

[juicychops]

it really annoys me and it has happened quite a lot recently. i dont mean a quick glance over the front or back pages, i mean an actual page turning 10-15 seconds look over. 10-15 seconds doesn't sound like much but when your standing there on the spot waiting for your shopping to be scanned its a long time, especially when there is a line of people waiting!

That happens to me too! Admittedly it is one checkout woman in particular who, like me, has a bit of a thing about the Branjenifer triangle. Every time i buy the National Enquirer she says the same thing: 'Ooh that'll be over soon. He's regretting leaving Jennifer now. I'll have him if they wont!'

But will he have you Carole???? [hmmm]

Oh but yes I do think YABU. It's only a few seconds and it gives us time to actually pack the mound of food that is scanned through at the speed of light!

Now THAT is often unreasonable!
