Patience of a saint

[dai dogs 1,491]

Not me I can’t wait in a queue sometimes not even for a beer the head can’t take it one of the easiest jobs in the world is them self checkout ladies that watch for a red light to come on above the customers heads notification of need assistance if I wait more than 30 seconds f**k the shopping I leave it and walk out my niece is the same ..Anyone else have this condition ?

I try and check myself, I've walked out of plenty of supermarkets, I seem to be cursed at checkouts , normally don't mind old dears who don't get out much , but middle age women who take forever and at last minute produce vouchers , then oh wait I've got these too.. fucks sake , that's or the ones that seem to have family days out in a shop chatting in isle. In a pub I only get impatient if staff are stood around yapping whilst people are waiting to be served. I think I'm fairly patient in work , I've a young lad doing summer work with me , bit of a genius on paper but somewhat above his station , after watching him trying to open the hoover for half an hour I went over opened it and remarked for a clever lad you're one thick sod . In fairness to him he's great on the maths and organised the entire workshop with scaled diagrams and labelled everything. So I'm patient and not. I wouldn't stand in a queue for an hour at museum and alike but I'll sit and watch a float all day lol

I always think to myself, what are you rushing off to do ? Lol 

I totally get the frustration with some spastic who wants to take 15 minutes to get a £1 off rich tea biscuits or the pakis that do a forensic audit of there receipt and then question £0.25p like it’s Leaman brothers……I just say “Oi, that’s enough, f**k off out of it” 

But other stuff, I’m pretty cool…..no reason to feel bad or make others feel bad.

I just think if you don’t want to stand in line then don’t go shopping ! Lol

What pisses me off is only one or two check outs open and queues up the aisles. I have gone to the next empty check out and tipped the basket out on the conveyor and f****d off out.

Cheers Arry

All I can say , is that it's your own faults .

Shopping is a feminine issue , it's a bit like periods and washing up , and a gentlemen should never involve himself in such matters.

A gentleman should only ever purchase items from , gun shops , fishing tackle shops , and public houses.

If you disagree with me , you're a homo ! .

Thing is if I go shopping I get what we need and spend about a hundred a week on food....

If she goes it's like 150 and she buys a load crap

To be honest , I'd rather my mrs spent £500 than have to go shopping myself. 

I go shopping about once every five years , and it's like supermarket sweep. I come home with all manner of odd shite.

Standing in a queue doesn’t phase me one iota,I stood in line for 12 hours and covered 10 miles to pay respects to her majesty as she lay in state.

You would like this store Mel, and they have a really nice seating area for ladies to sit and wait for a week or so while their menfolk walk around in shopping heaven chatting to blokes who are also walking around in awe at the size of the place and it's stock.

If I ever had a massive lottery win , I'd open a place just like that . It would lose a fortune in this country , but it wouldn't bother me .  I'd just wonder around it all day talking about shooting and fishing.

Edited to add.

I don't do clothes shopping . When I need clothes , it usually goes like this.

Wife. " you need some new trousers , you look like a feckin tramp! "

Me. Eh ?.

Two days later, and me being vaguely aware that something in my environment isn't quite right.

Wife . " will you put your tea down , and feckin stand still while I turn these trousers up !".

Me . Eh ?.
