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 one occasion, a family came into the store. 2 adults, 3 kids, one a baby in a pram. Looked perfectly normal, not particularly scummy like most of the time. proceeded to wander around for half an hour or so until they approached my till with a small basket of items. I proceeded to serve them, and just after they walk off, I hear a shout from the security guard, who proceeds to empty the pram of about 100 boxes of lightbulbs that they'd surrounded the baby with...
On one occasion I had a woman come into the store 5 minutes before closing time and then purchase about 500 plants which took nearly half an hour to put through the checkout.
One of the other members of staff told me about at another of the shops stores, they were clearing out the warehouse and found a small nest one of the employees had used to skive off filled with pages and pages of hardcore porn, all with the subject of really fat women, accompanied by a sponge which had a hole burned through it from.... well you can guess.
