I really would have loved to have called this blog 20 years in the freezer section...maybe next time. Boss work sticking up for your own, and I couldn't agree more, it was a terrifying glimpse in a life vanishing before your eyes that supermarket...the self importance over nothing was frightening...Miles McClaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10335102965842725449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-40812364357738621802008-10-21T02:42:00.000-07:002008-10-21T02:42:00.000-07:00Oh Miley that was a little sad but so beautifully ...Oh Miley that was a little sad but so beautifully written (hang on I'm sounding like a saccharine commenter and I hate that) but it was. <BR/><BR/>Adam had a short stint at Coles at 16 years of age. I went to pick him up at 11pm (on a school night)and he hadn't finished stacking his quota of chunky chips and cheesecake. The 'supervisor' when I challenged him by saying "My son's shift finished half an hour ago and he has school tomorrow" stated calmly "Madam, when I was his age, I worked until the job was done here in the freezer section" To which I replied, "Maybe so but 20 years later and you're still in the fucking freezer section!"<BR/>Adam wasn't offered shifts there any more.Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-8223115529457414782008-10-21T00:20:00.000-07:002008-10-21T00:20:00.000-07:00Ah yes, a god of chocolate based emotions...how go...Ah yes, a god of chocolate based emotions...how good are Curly Wurlys though? An absolute treat...<BR/><BR/>I have never seen a tangello outside of my supermarket work, I presume they are great! And yeah, I love watching things like that unfold...it never seems to end well (in Tassie)...<BR/><BR/>It's definitely weird and strange when they don't pack your bags - they don't in Scotland, it took me a while to work out I had to do it myself. I was a bit lost for a while...by the time I got to grips with it, it was time to come home!<BR/><BR/>If you do, get N-Sync and N-Trance to join up for a special tour...it'd rock!Miles McClaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10335102965842725449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-28324001132122899702008-10-20T19:17:00.000-07:002008-10-20T19:17:00.000-07:00By jingo, I'm enjoying this blog - I think I'll st...By jingo, I'm enjoying this blog - I think I'll start a boy-band called N-Thralled !SpasMorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15411563537292091486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-26561887376593001372008-10-20T18:15:00.000-07:002008-10-20T18:15:00.000-07:00Her ennui is somewhat depressing, taking the joy o...<I>Her ennui is somewhat depressing, taking the joy out of my Curly Wurly, but she's looking past even my tasty chocolate treat, causing me to avoid any kind of badinage in our brief meeting - she can't even be bothered to look at the price on the screen, almost taking an air scan as she stares blankly into space.</I><BR/><BR/>That is brilliant. Seriously. <BR/><BR/>We have this dismal little supermarket nearby where the check-out women don't pack your bags for you. Sometimes I have a trolley full of stuff and the counter is very small and I'm madly unpacking the trolley on my side and on the other side it's all mounting up like Everest. They scan things in a really slow zombie fashion and they just infuriate mesquibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10744419106501810243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-63382801399129918032008-10-20T11:33:00.000-07:002008-10-20T11:33:00.000-07:00It's always interesting for me to watch scenes lik...It's always interesting for me to watch scenes like that unfold. I can relate to both the girl and the customers.
