Talking This might cheer you up

I was feeling a bit silly and so made this. If any of you work or have ever worked in a supermarket, I imagine you'll feel a sense of connection

I'm sure a few customers are recognising themselves here as well. Who knew our cheerful banter (or genuine shock at how much we actually bought) was so boring for the checkout staff?

It’s not meant as hostile, more a lighthearted point that we hear it a lot. I used to make the same jokes before I worked at a supermarket.

Not the first message I was hoping to see when I woke up. Maybe I’ll delete this. I didn’t think anyone would be offended by it.

Not offended at all more embarrassed. Maybe I'll use the self serve checkouts in future.

Again, not what I was trying to achieve. We’ve all done these jokes, even me, but my point was that a lot of the time we don’t realise that cashiers hear those same jokes all day. I know I didn’t! It wasn’t passing judgement on you or anything, more the silliness of it.

I actually avoid the self check-outs because I think if everybody uses them more staff will be made redundant.

I always chat to the checkout staff! Hasn’t realised that I was probably boring them 😂😂
Luckily none of them have been rude enough to let me know so far and they have happily humoured me! In fact most have chatted back 🤣
