This must be one of the most random rants ever...but it does suggest that Safeway DO sell sushi

 

last friday the boyfriend decided to embark on a booze cruise with the lads, and after an exhausting week, i was looking forward to a night in by myself, slobbing out in my pj’swith some videos, a nice meal and a glass or two of wine.

 

on my way home from work i decided to get something for dinner. the nearest supermarket was safeway, so it made sense for me to make my way there. biggest mistake i ever made. oh how i wish i’d made a detour and gone to tesco instead….

 

finding what i wanted wasn’t a problem. the store is fairly well stocked with a decent range of fresh veg, meat, canned goods, and a decent selection of wine. it’s slightly more pricey than the other big stores, but everything seems to be of a good quality and a decent quantity. their concept of customer service, however, left a great deal to be desired...

 

before i go any further, let me please stress that i am not about to imply that all checkout workers are gormless, rude and unintelligible. i have met many very polite and pleasant cashiers who have made the whole supermarket experience much more bearable than it might otherwise be. the one i encountered in safeway, unfortunately, was of a very different type.

 

with my small basket of goodies, i made my way to the nearest 'basket only' checkout and unloaded my goods. my good mood started to evaporate when the checkout assistant started bashing around my goods while scanning them through the till. when she got to my sushi, i had to intervene and ask her to be a little more careful. sushi does not take kindly to being waved around as if by some overenthusiastic cheerleader with a pompom. she did not take kindly to my request, responding in very poor english with “i ‘ave to get it to go through the bleeper...” hmmmm. yes.

Yeah! But it's always full of champers!

I would get another chiller but I'd have to kick one of the birds out and they don't make limos any bigger than my one <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

Anyway it's a bitch to park something that size in Knightsbridge, I'll be glad when the hele-port is on the roof <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Ha ha, very amusing. It was taken from a site where people moan about supermarkets, and was not written by me. Perhaps I should have made that a little bit clearer <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />


it did make me wonder <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
