A wet chilly start, almost autumnal as we went to the bus stop. Trams were working today so we didn't have to struggle up the hill.
Work was busy, but not a bad day the usual Sunday zombies, those you speak to and they look at you as if you've crawled out from under a stone and they don't answer you. I just carry on. People are just wrapped up in their own little worlds and that is very evident when they come and shop. The one thing I don't understand is, if people who say they hate shopping and consider it a drain on their time, really hated it, surely they'd do anything so they didn't have to. Shop online for instance, or do click and collect. But when you suggest it, they say oh that's not for me, I like to see what I'm buying/getting. Well then, you don't really hate shopping then do you? You just use that as a phrase, an excuse, for you to be grumpy and awkward while you do shop. You have choices, if it's the interaction with the cashier you hate, use smart shop, or self scan... When we shop at the Castle Marina branch we dislike the cashiers there, so we use the smart shop. But if we did have to go through a checkout because its gone down etc, we wouldn't be rude or moody, even if the cashier was as they usually are there, unfriendly and "flat"...
