A comical exchange I just read:
I was at Walmart yesterday, self-scanning and bagging my almost $300 worth of groceries while an employee monitors my activities from her "podium". And then this happened...
Her - Why are you double-bagging all of your groceries?
Me - Excuse me?
Her - You are wasting our bags!
Me - If you don't like the way I'm bagging the groceries, feel free to come on over here and bag them yourself.
Her - That's not my job!
Me - Okay, then I will bag my groceries how I please if that's alright with you.
Her - Why are you using two bags?
Me - Because the bags are weak, and I don't want the handles to break or the bottoms to rip out.
Her - Well, that's because you are putting too much stuff in the bag. If you took half of that stuff out and put it in a different bag, then you wouldn't need to double bag.
(10 seconds of me just staring at her)
Me - So you want me to split these items in half and put half of them in a different bag so that I don't have to double bag.
Her - Exactly.
Me - So I would still be using two bags to hold the same number of items.
Her - No, because you wouldn't be double-bagging.
(Me pressing two fingers to my left eye in an attempt to make it stop twitching.)
Me - Okay. So here I have a jug of milk and a bottle of juice double bagged. If I take the milk out and remove the double bagging and just put the milk in the single bag and the juice in that single bag, I'm still using two bags for these two items.
Her - No, because you are not double-bagging them so it's not the same number of bags.
(Me looking around at about 10 other customers who at this point are enjoying the show.)
Me - Is this like that Common Core math stuff I keep hearing about?
Her - Never mind. You just don't get it.
And with that she went back to her little podium so she could continue texting or playing games on her phone or whatever it was she was doing before she decided to come over and critique my bagging skills.

Not going to lie, this reads like one of those reddit posts but I dont doubt the legitimacy of OPs claims.
Next time tell her to "stay in her lane"

One day the machine outside was out of Mt dew so I went in. Went to the back and grabbed one and set it on the counter. The smart alleck jerk that owned the place said, that'll be $1.25.
I asked why they were more inside than from the machine outside? This jerk didn't even answer. He said "do you want it or not?"
So I walked away. As I got to the door the asshole yelled at me. "GET BACK HERE AND PUT THAT DRINK BACK UP!"
I smiled and said, "it's worth a quarter to you, You put it back up"
Then I went a mile and a half down the road to the next gas station and got my Mt Dew.

so as I approached all the registers and noticed they were all closed and I was going to have to hand scan all those items in my cart because apparently they were trying to save money on personnel I instead very visibly walked up to the front with my cart load full of things tell somebody I wasn't going to scan them all so somebody was going to have to return them all and oh by the way they're a couple hundred dollars worth of steaks and some ice cream that'll be ruined if you don't do it quickly. needless to say they did not save money on personnel that day.

It's the industrialization and dehumanization of our entire lives!
"Women are only useful if they play the role of men."
"Men are only useful if they play the part of a machine."
"Your entire life is dispensable for means of progress."
Progress towards what? An atomized, role-confused, means to an end that nobody wants?
With no salvation in this world all there is left is vanity and death.
