That can be a pain, too... but if you think about it, it might be a safety precaution. If you have one person manning 4 lanes, the possibility for theft is probably greater and if someone attacks the cashier, then they're screwed.
 
"Can you do me a favor?" Both my wife and my soon-to-be supervisor say this anytime they need me to do something, and it's driving me crazy.

You need to stop hanging out with the girls from Sweet Valley High.

I work on a college campus... *cries*

Funny thing is, before I started here, I had no idea people actually talked like the "valley girl".

Hypocrite. :evil:
 
Campus loses power due to high wind, which takes down all of their servers, preventing access to important information. (Campus loses power at least 5x per semester, with at least one outage lasting 4hrs or more.)

"Whenever you look for something, it's always the last place you look." Would you really fucking keep looking for it after you found it???

This, and the face that my wal-mart doesnt have a self checkout.

add to the list wal-mart.

until every wal mart customer reads a "self checkout for complete dummies" book, i refuse to use them unless i am the only one using it. even if the slow ones arent in your lane they take the full attention of the self checkout cashier.
 
Driving:

- People who don't signal when turning
- Inconsiderate / oblivious drivers
- Rolling through stop signs

You know, the typical stuff.
 
-People who speed and think that its "ok". then they ask for help to get out of tickets.

-People who feel the need to openly insult religion, just because they themselved dont feel compelled to believe.

-People at work who ask me whats wrong with their home computer.

-People who still use basic UHF tv.

-People of "high intelligence" positions (executives, PE's, lawyers) who cant take the time to learn how to use basic technology. I refuse to come to your desk, just because you dont know how to dial a 3way call, dial up a video conference, use webex, or turn on your VCR. would you like me to sharpen your pencil too??

word up to both of these!
 
People who merge at 25MPH under the goddamn speed limit and about 35 under the flow of traffic. I swear people who do that need a pole shoved up their ass, they make it impossible for anyone behind them coming down the ramp to get in smoothly.

 
going to plug in a usb cable...only 2 ways to choose and no matter which one i choose it's always the wrong way.

Wow, yes, this happens to me 90% of the time, I don't understand it at all. I'm glad I'm not the only one!
