generic bagging
one would think that packing grocery bags is a relatively easy thing.
one would THINK.
i did.
i waited in line 25 minutes to have 15-some items bagged.
into TEN bags. count them
TEN.
BAGS.
let that sink in for a minute.
OK, 10 bags, 15 items, 25 minutes.
something doesn't add up here.
that's one thing.
another thing:
WHO THINKS TO BAG GROCERIES ACCORDING TO GENRE?
to genre?!
why, my friendly supermarketbaggers did.
cans. 7 of them. corn, canned pineapple. etc. in one. ONE. bag. heavy.
lettuce in another.
LIQUIDS, in another bag.
Orange Juice, Soy Milk, Windex, Drinkable Yogurt, Shampoo. In one bag.
and my bananas?
why, here the pattern changed.
Smooshable bananas IN WITH MY !@#$%^&*( Lysol Tub and Tile Cleaner.
No rhyme or reason.
And my blood pressure is now.
Well.
Over the boiling point.
thank you for listening.
