I too have had the number police try and nab me at the cash!(and I have noticed that they are mostly seinors (fuck get a job if all you want to do is bitch at me I have a job kids house chores etc....) all I can say is get another cashier because the store is packed and this had the shortest line and yes I am tired stressed and didn't notice the sign either my bad!!

thanks so much for following me! ...hi Stephanie! <br /><br />thanks so much for following me! i've had my tiny little following of family members and friends (like our lovely Lena) for so long time now without that number ever changing so i'm super ecstatic to have a new addition! i'm so glad it made you laugh! <br /><br />Milk Thrower got off easy but hopefully her bags leaked and she had to go out and buy more. ;)MommyNoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146994602259978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-82671387570236757002012-02-05T23:47:07.640-05:002012-02-05T23:47:07.640-05:00hi Tammi! so happy that you enjoyed my post - and...hi Tammi! so happy that you enjoyed my post - and actually had a laugh! i've been following your blog for months now (and am also a Google+ follower) so i'm so happy that you stopped by! <br /><br />all i can say is you are way more courageous than I could ever be! i see the sign and i count my items and if i'm 1 over i'll go to another line. i'm a total wimp that way! so to have this happen - and me sitting there cavalierly with my flyers, price matching as you please. ugh. BAD! i was actually at No Frills and noticed that there express line says "NO PRICE MATCHING IN THE EXPRESS LINE." so double oops. i don't think Fresh Co. has the same policy but still - it didn't help the situation. <br /><br />next time if i'm 1 or 2 items over, i might take a cue from you and muster up some courage. it would be funny if someone called me out on being one item over! =)MommyNoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146994602259978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-26373719498360761512012-02-05T23:41:26.963-05:002012-02-05T23:41:26.963-05:00hehe thanks Neeroc. i wish i had been as succinct...hehe thanks Neeroc. i wish i had been as succinct as you at the time. my witty repartee - and namecalling - wasn't world class to be sure. lol...MommyNoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146994602259978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-17877403388304615882012-02-05T23:40:01.627-05:002012-02-05T23:40:01.627-05:00thanks for the vote of confidence. i really did f...thanks for the vote of confidence. i really did feel like a big jerk but those customers were really over the top! if i was less tired and feeling less "emotional" i'm sure i would have just kept my mouth shut and let it bother me for a long time but i'm glad i asked him what was up. even though his answer - and my reaction - was a shock! =)MommyNoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146994602259978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-34372996010093593402012-02-05T23:37:41.315-05:002012-02-05T23:37:41.315-05:00wow! you were pretty nice to that guy. how rude!...wow! you were pretty nice to that guy. how rude! what is it with the grocery aisle that makes people think they can just act whatever way they like? i try to go later in the evening to avoid the crowds but I think after hearing your "incident" i'm going to approach the grocery store line with a little more caution from now on! =)MommyNoobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146994602259978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-78699705658885688982012-02-05T23:35:22.468-05:002012-02-05T23:35:22.468-05:00Thanks so much Diana!

But if I noticed I'm over by a couple of items when I'm already in line, I don't care. We all have places to be and things to do. It's especially annoying when there are only two cashiers. What if the bar code wasn't scanning properly and the cashier had to call for a price check? That can be just as frustrating and people will hum and hah just the same. <br /><br />By the way, I'm so glad Lena told me about your blog.

However... I have blurted out, in a passive aggressive way, and mostly at the air, 'ummm isnt this the EXPRESS line?' the. Difference is, you were open to feedback, while most people would sniff and mentally flip me the bird. <br /><br />Also, once I was in longos and I was tweeting some very important messages. And this asshold yells 'Excuse me. Can you get off that goddammed phone? You're holding up all the aisles. There's no way you're THAT important.' ( no, it wasn't my husband. Just some random guy and I feel bad for his wife). So I said, ''what do you know about me? Maybe I am important.' and then I made sure to stand still and browse the anchovies right in front of his cars.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-82404738024533207682012-02-04T00:19:53.346-05:002012-02-04T00:19:53.346-05:00ha! thanks for your comments my twin! you are so r...ha! thanks for your comments my twin! you are so right about that cashier! and those customers were UNREAL. that's how i imagine an angry mob to be like (if a mob consisted of only 3 people.) they were almost foaming at the mouth! but yes, no excuse for the way i acted and certainly NOT my finest hour! and yes! i def. will look twice anytime i approach a checkout aisle from now on!

I do't even know where to begin!<br /><br />First, I absolutely can see that it was an innocent mistake - anyone could have made it, under less stressful conditions! And it was absolutely the cashier's duty to inform you that it was the express lane - by failing to do so, she doesn't become part of the problem: she creates the problem.<br /><br />And a big middle finger to the milk slammer and head shakers - if you're not going to pipe up, and be courteous about it - then retract into your shell and STFU.<br /><br />However, what the hell girl! Shouting at old people? Virtual slap on the wrist! I think it's safe to say that you learned your own lesson in humility and would likely have acted differently, if you weren't tired/hungry/crampy/cranky. Everyone deserves a hall pass and I think this one may be yours - particularly when it comes to express lane escapades. Bet you'll always look twice from now on!Lena!https://www.blogger.com/profile/08838182690290437386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-34472091389656178052011-12-07T22:26:24.569-05:002011-12-07T22:26:24.569-05:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.Tammi @ My Organized Chaoshttp://www.myorganizedchaos.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587036607483530542.post-12402539128150916712011-09-07T23:39:23.214-04:002011-09-07T23:39:23.214-04:00lol, thanks Lena! he's a silly little monkey....lol, thanks Lena! he's a silly little monkey.
