It's got to be a thankless job..I mean you wouldn't go into it to get rich so unless you really enjoy doing it..I won't say they are all idiots either, just the ones I seem to have encountered lately.I don't want to give anyone behind the counter a hard time but I also don't want a shopping experience I don't particularly enjoy to make me feel incompetent either, especially when it comes to parting with my money. It is a smallish victory for me to get my way, inspite of the manager no doubt assessing me some punk ready to hold up the cashier at gunpoint.

No doubt the clerks must be doing a lot of different things at the same time and then you have to deal with self-righteous customers like myself. I'll treat them decently enough if they can do so in return by not trying to slide one over, or just prove to be lazy half arsed and in this case an outright liar. There are stupid customers as well, but customers cannot talk too long to a stupid sales person, but they can spend alot of time yelling at, or explaining the same damn issue over and over again..I was doing the latter..I have to commend myself a bit on not starting a scene even though I was at the end of my tether.

Standing in lineups is another unpleasant part of the whole thing as well.. I was twenty minutes in queue waiting for this sad episode to unfold. I made the people after me stand there even longer..Why is that there are three or four open registers and several idiots wandering about who can't seem to handle register duty?

**So magnets to take those things off..well damn that could have helped...and how did you figure that out. I had no idea ink was inside of those things so good enough I didn't open it. I think I might just start buying onlline.
