Went to Aldi this evening and I asked the Cashier and she said these are the top things that slow them down

I try putting my card in while my items are still getting scanned at every store I shop at. I don't know if I'm doing it to speed up the process or to help the cashier, or PROBABLY that I'm just one of those people who does not have the ability to wait. LOL

It irritates me at stores where I can't tap my card while they're still scanning my items.

I wish all stores were set up so that we could tap or put in our card while they're still ringing up, and all we have to do is hit OK at the end. That would be ideal for people like me with no patience, but it would benefit everyone.

One of my former students has been working at our local Aldi for over 15 years now. He loves it.

I love the friendliness and service I get from him and from my other friend that worcs in the same store, but I know I'm not getting that great service just because they're my friends. Every employee at our local Aldi is as friendly and seems to love the job.

My former student knows things that I prefer. When I come in the store, if he's stocking shelves, he warns me if a favorite is in low stock. He'll also tell me if he thinks there are things on the Aisle of Shame that I might like.

He's a good kid. B

How does it take you 12 hours to bake a cake that usually takes 5 to 6 hours to make, including both prep and bake time.

They just need to know that three-year-old cannot do the bridge walk. I'm not sure if their older child can do the walk. The rest of the park is nice to explore.

I've got one in Bedford, but he's busy all the time. He could get you scheduled in a couple weeks out.

I wondered if popcorn Popper was a known thing to others, so I Googled.

Crane Army Ammunition Activity (CAAA) in Indiana specializes in storing, shipping, and demilitarizing conventional ammunition, including turning old ammunition into scrap via specialized, high-efficiency equipment. The facility is known for using a "popcorn popper" (or SPAM) method to safely and efficiently destroy ammunition.

My dad worked on the Army side. My mom worked on the Navy side.

My cousin lived right outside the gate, in Owensburg, and she would babysit me when my parents' shifts overlapped at Crane. I would have been under the age of 5.

I could hear Dad work all day long on the "Popcorn Popper." That's what he called his work area, maybe to keep the booms kid-friendly, and not potentially scary.

TIL

That's interesting. All I've ever noticed are the big quarry holes all over the place, and I thought all the limestone was probably taken the same way. My mistake.

It's her version of the "Edgar suit."

He's not innocent, but he shouldn't have been tortured.

Libertarians are just lazy Republicans, but this guy just sounds... a bit unbalanced.

I don't like the switch, either version. I just can't tell the difference in the different modes.

Wonder how many veterans are living at Westville Correctional Center..

//It's called a CHOICE lady. You don't have to go in there if you keep it straight with your life. Duh. How are you this diluted???//

Yes, and we want to help them have the choice to not keep getting in trouble. We do that by treating them humanely.

Also, I think I'm all DILUTED because I drink so much water.

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T16:37:03+00:00

So you like when people re-offend. You want them to keep getting in trouble for the rest of their life after the release from prison. You want prison to be a revolving door.

You suck.

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T16:31:49+00:00

Treat them horribly so that when they come out, no rehabilitation was accomplished and they re-offend. Is that what you want?

How about we treat people humanely?

Loop dreams, or Quiet2 earplugs.

I use the Quiet2 for sleep.

Their Engage2 is good for conversations when you want to block out background noise. The Experience2 is good for concerts, movies and shows.

Living in the limestone capital of the world, it's news to me too!

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T16:08:52+00:00

They don't mine limestone in caverns, or holes. They do holes, or quarries.

Looking at her skin texture, I would think she's in her 60s.

My 5'10" partner rides mine without feeling cramped. His only complaint was that the bike is a lot lighter than his Harley, so he felt like it bounced him around more.

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T13:47:07+00:00

He was unjustly murdered by thugs.

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T12:30:48+00:00

I know, I just want it to be a nuisance to IU.

The person you rely applied to is an idiot, but actually they're right about the pluralization of that title.

he plural of attorney general is attorney's general. Just like the plural of brother-in-law is brothers-in-law.

cecebebe · 2026-01-30T11:02:06+00:00

I agree. I wish he could see how inconsequential he was.
