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

Spank the till monkey
At the checkout, I enquired "Do I need batteries for this?"
"Wot?"
"Batteries?"
"Erm..."
"You know, batteries? Little tubey things, put them inside to make it work?"
"Ohhhhh!" [dawning glimmer of understanding] "You mean bachrees."
"!?"
"No, you don't need bachrees, it's electric."
[Leaves, speechlessly]

I don't get this.
How would you pronounce 'batteries' except 'bachrees'?
Unless you did an exaggerated 'baTTeries'
