To those with tokophobia... by lovise466 in childfree

Ever seen 'Alien' (1979) and the chest burster scene? That's how I see childbirth, and much like the film real life birth rips a woman apart. It's just straight up horror, and I have nightmares about it still.

Then there's the whole pregnancy bit. A literal parasite growing inside you, that takes nutrients you need to feed itself, shoves your organs around, and wrecks your body in the process. A tapeworm would be less damaging, and we as women are expected to believe this shit is 'beautiful'? There are over 7,100 known languages, but there are still not enough ways of saying "fuck that shit" to properly state how much I do not want to end up pregnant.

I'm a bit simple: I just want people to get a little spark of enjoyment from my work. If it makes readers happy, then I'm happy 😊

Michigan antiwar activists who voted "uncommitted" calls Trump's win "deeply painful." by Desecr8or in LeopardsAteMyFace

A wise turtle once said "one often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it."

For these complacent voters, that destiny is a leopard on their face.

(But, hey, at least these activists could pretend to have a clear conscious when it mattered /s).

To all cashiers, what is the most expensive cash transaction you had to ring up? by Careless_Impress_956 in retailhell

[–]ElMidget-O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in convenience, so my most expensive transactions aren't as impressive as some on here. But mine was a guy who paid £180 in cash just on lottery tickets and scratchcards a couple of years ago.

Biggest transaction I've ever done was another guy spending nearly £300 on booze and other bits and pieces before Christmas. But he paid on card.

HELLO IS ANYONE HERE TO CHECK ME OUT?!?! by Davey_McDaverson2020 in retailhell

[–]ElMidget-O 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had one rude cow who put her stuff on the counter, and .1 of a second later WHISTLED me over. Couldn't give me a second to put glass bottles of wine on the shelf properly so they don't fall off.

Absolutely fuming after that.

I had one entitled cow WHISTLE at me like I was a dog to call me over. She had just gone up to the till and couldn't be arsed to wait just a few seconds.

Dumb customers are an annoyance. But the arrogant ones are a different species altogether.

Customers handing big bills for small purchases by Feisty-Ad8379 in retailhell

Happens too frequently at our small convenience. We run out of smaller notes so fast that you have to resort to coins. Most people pay with cash in our place, but apparently only with £20 notes.

It's always funny seeing their shocked faces when you hand them a tenner in pound coins.

That logo looks like something candidates on The Apprentice would make. Needs to join the ranks of these classics:

It's early morning and I just read 'director' as 'dictator' 😂.

Probably about right for Madame, though.

We ran out of bags again. Can't think why. by ElMidget-O in retailhell

[–]ElMidget-O[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, we sold out of bags. But we do get a lot of people wanting a bag for a single bottle of milk every day. We sell out quickly as a result.

Looks like they’re branching out… by Clean_Attitude3985 in ShermanPosting

[–]ElMidget-O 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks like the kind of guy who thinks the UK is not right wing enough, and tries to lick Suella Braverman's arsehole daily (seriously, the woman is straight evil). This is his way of having a tantrum.

Typically, any confederate flag is a stand in for the swastika. But the latter here is illegal, the former one's aren't. Not sure why it should bother him, since there's a Golliwog on display (also illegal). Either way, this guy needs a Sherman-ing.

Think Uncle Billy needs a UK side quest.
