It's not free?

My grumpyness realy comes out when on the checkout line behind someone and she waits until all the stuff is checked out and bagged to decide to open up the purse and dig out the money and search for the exact change! Do this before, It's like they think this is free and you don't need to pay. Geeez do I get the grumps!-----LOUIE

I've had people try to hold a place in line for others by standing there with 1 item. The other person then shows up with a shopping bag full of stuff. They actually think I'm going to let them get in front of me.

I embarrassed the hell out of a spanish lady and her two older daughters at walyworld .They had a shopping cart full of stuff and the daughters are on one line and the mother on the next one over with me behind her.She gets up to the front and calls the daughters over and i tell her she has nothing to buy and that you cannot be on two lines at once she gives me no speak ingles to me.Lucky for her i speak fluent Spanish i then start to get yelled at by the daughters and the mother in English the lady at the register told them to bugger off everyone on line were all smiles when they got put in the other line.I just cannot believe the ignorance of some people and i will not sit ideally by.

Or how about the grocery game with food stamps/WIC?
You can't tell me that you know enough english to apply for welfare but not enough to know what food items are excluded?
I don't knock people for needing this assistance, but when you go shopping in Gucci , Prada or DK clothing, it sure as hell looks like you DON'T need it!

Enough grumping for me, I need to get ready for tomorrow night and possibly some ice fishing this weekend.

Very excellent for you! I love the "Me no speek enrish/ingles" crowd.
