Do You Have To Ask?


Its funny how some pet peeves never go away. 

It never fails.  You purchase more than a few items from a convenience store, gas station or retailer and pay for your purchase.  Clearly, unless you want to practice your juggling on the way to your car or home you are going to need something to hold all these miscellaneous items.  They have the technology.  Its been around for awhile.  It's called a bag.  It comes in paper or plastic. 

And yet...clerks seem genuinely surprised when at the end of your purchase you would like one of those bag thingies.

Some clerks do ask if you want a bag.  They too seem genuinely surprised that you want one.

Here is a thought for all the cashiers out there.  If a customer makes a purchase...there isn't a need to ask if they want it bagged...especially if there is enough items to challenge a circus juggler.  Just bag it.


There...I feel better!

Here's another one.

When the hell did people lose common decency?

I just caught the neighbor dog from three apartments down squatting in my back yard taking a dump. I couldn't get out in time to scare the leash free dog off.

So I gave it a few minutes to see if the owner planned on coming over to clean it up. They haven't. Maybe they'll find it smeared on their back door in the morning! angered.gif

We live on a property with a dog park.  This is a common occurance,

The other day I went to Taco Bell and ordered my food, they asked me if I needed any hot sauce, I said yes....now from several previous experiences I have yet to get my hot sauce even if THEY ask me. So when she handed me my bag I asked Did you put hot sauce in there? She said yes, so I figured ok finally! I drove the mile and a half to the park and opened the bag with NO FRIGGIN HOT SAUCE!!!!!! How hard can it be?? furious

Sparky, I hate it when you order an item that clearly needs a fork, and you drive off and realize there are no utensils in the bag...again...how hard can it be?
