This is a question Shops and Supermarkets

I used to work in a supermarket where the girl on the deli counter cut off the top of her finger in the meat slicer, but was made to finish her shift before going to hospital. You can now pay £100 to shoot zombies in the store's empty shell, haunted by poor dead nine-finger deli girl. Tell us your tales of the old retail experience, from either side of the counter

This was the days before Fabreze
A family used to wheel their decrepid and incontinent grandfather into the local Waitrose and leave him for a good two hours to do his own shopping. The stench he emitted was unbelievable and had the workers and shoppers all gagging.

This happened every weekend and as he was a paying punter, no-one could summon up the courage to ask him not to come into the store. Instead the checkout manager used to walk behind him liberally spraying a can of air freshner with no subtlety whatsoever.

As much as we hated the sight of the filthy old duffer, we couldn't begrudge his no-doubt long suffering family the chance of fresh air for a couple of hours a week.

Fresh hair is indeed a basic human right.
None of that 'stale hair' nonsense.
