I can think of worse things. Why would that be a problem for anyone?

Only rationale I can think of is that it would make the purse more difficult to steal.... so it's really not a bad idea, if you think about it.

My sister does the same thing. She had her purse stolen right out if the cart once. And I can't be there to break the jaw of the people who try all the time. It takes time to get to the purse yes, but it also deters would be thieves (and saves their asses from being beat)

My favorite is when they either refuse to read, or are unable to read the signs. There are 5 different kinds of shrimp, 2 cooked, 3 RAW, each one of them has a big sign with huge text on it describing the shrimp in detail.

Stupid people:

"I want some shrimp"

"Which kind?"

"Those ones" *Points at something I can't ****ing see on the other side of the case*

"Cooked or RAW?"

"The ones I am pointing at, pay attention!"

"I can't see what you are pointing at Ma'am"

"The small cooked ones!!"

Normal people:

" I would like a pound of the 61/70 cooked shrimp"

"Yes Ma'am"

I once was bagging for this lady with a baby in its car-seat carrier thing inside the basket and she had a $200 order and I just bagged it and set the bags off to the side because I hate putting groceries in a cart with a baby. I feel like if I set a bag on their baby's leg on accident they'll blame me and try and accuse me of hitting their child or something crazy like that.

Anyway, the lady pays and sees her bags on the belt still and she just stares at me and she goes "well? Put them in the cart." There was no room for all those groceries to fit comfortably next to her child. I just set some bags around the child and the rest on the bottom then she walks off without thanking me for taking the time to fit her groceries into her cart like a damn puzzle. Ugh. I just hate when they can't move their purses or children out of the cart so their big order can fit.

I would've just put them in the BOB cart and let the lady move the kid. Or told her that I didn't feel comfortable putting bags on top of her child. They usually understand... the normal ones at least.

Yeah and then dumbazzes proceed to just pull it the fack outta the cart and the eggs and bread and the rest of the **** just goes everywhere.

Why do customers put their purses in the bottom of the cart and then proceed to bury them in groceries?
WTF

what bugs me is getting a small cart "Oh, I didn't think I was going to buy so much"
Or, as a courtesy clerk, "They fit when I put them in there..."

My favorite is when I'm moving truck from the back into our cooler and they cut me off and/or don't move out of my way. Dont worry dumb a$$, 3000 pounds of produce stops on a dime and is ultra maneuverable around your fat as$.
