Shops and SupermarketsI 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

On a visit to Oz where I now live, my sister asked about the difference between Vegimite and Marmite.
She's both gullable and also was slightly jet-lagged - like my brother-in-law who kept remarking how the sun was in the wrong direction (North rather than South).
"Well", I said, "You know that Marmite is lovingly produced by brewers with the yeast left over from making beer."
"Yes of course", she replied
"Vegimite", I continued helpfully "Is scraped from the inside of the Sydney sewers".
"Is it really" She said

Vegemite......foul stuff. A friend is a tour coach driver and he delights in telling Japanese tourists that vegemite is made by grinding up the noses of dead koalas.
