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

Back in the day...
I worked for a high street electronics retailer (think Hi-De-Hi)for my sins. The customer base was wide, from the scally kids chipping Playstations to the proper radio ham anoraks - I fit in somewhere in between ;)
Anyway on one particularly quiet day there were a couple of customers in while we were busy pissing around. Cue old bloke approaches counter to pay for his wares - he starts emptying his pockets with the stuff he was buying. None of us had noticed him filling his pockets and he could of easily just walked out. Fair play, I start putting it all into the till when I made the fatal mistake... "Anything else sir?" meaning would you perhaps like one of these mini LED keycahin lights, batteries or even a catalogue. He practically exploded "Just what are you accusing me of?"
Maybe I could have chosen my words better. Silly old git.
