Revenge part 1


Tesco Cashier:

About two days ago I was getting some shopping in Tesco's, just a few "bits" on the way home from work, including a case of beer. I checked and double-checked the time to make sure I could get to the checkout before 11pm (licencing hours), and got there at 10:50 - plenty of time, or so I thought. The dozy cow at the till, one of only TWO which were open, spent ages serving the other customers, not by being slow but by spending more time talking than actually working.

When I got to the checkout she told me in a matter-of-fact voice that it was 11:01 and she could no longer sell me the beer. Cue call for Manager, who was very sympathetic, but of course could do nothing.

I paid for the rest of my shopping with my usual debit card, but instead of signing my real name, I signed "Mickey Mouse" in my best cursive script. Said cashier returns my card with only a cursory glance at signature and off I go, back to see the manager. He was very interested and took notes from my receipt, and promised to have words...

If you're reading this, lady from Till 28 - give me my beer or else!

Autocorrect

I have also used the Autocorrect function in MS Word on one of the computers at work. A member of staff who uses it frequently has a surname which is one letter different from a mildly rude word, well not any more. If he types his name it is automatically replaced. I cannot reveal more in case he checks the history (cannot be deleted, thanks IT dept.) and finds b3ta in there...
