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

AsdaSeveral years ago, my local Asda tried out a self-service deli section, where a stand in the aisle contained big tubs of stuff like pasta salad, rice salad, coleslaw and so on. Each tub had its own ladle and there were various sizes of polystyrene pots with lids for people to fill up.
If the manky hand-prints on everything and spilled, congealing mayo splattered everywhere were not enough to put people off, one morning some kid went a step further. This kid was probably about eight or ten years old and was sitting up on the edge of this unit, scooping up big handfuls of these foods and stuffing them into its gob, smearing the sauce all over his face in the process. Those he didn't like, he was spitting back into the tubs.
His mother wasn't that bothered, when confronted.
