I am a sad, boring git with too much spare time on my hands.

Basket Tills
I sometimes get customers with trolleys going to the basket tills (the ones with the big sign above them saying "ONE BASKET ONLY"), sometimes with the escuse "I have less than 10 items!" but more often saying nothing. I let them get on with it, and watch them pass, without them knowing that the width of the aisle is expertly set to be just a tiny bit smaller than 2 trolley widths. It is so much fun watching 2 people try and shove their trolleys through the gap at the same time!
Well the rule is there for a reason...

Supermarket Checkouts
One way of getting out of work is to deliberately sabotage the till, usually by unpluging some random cable, and spend the next 2 hours watching the checkout manager rewire and swap over every component in the till before working out what had happened. "looks a loose connection" is the usual response. Ive been doing this for 4 months now and its only recently they have started to catch on...
Another technique is to suddenly bend down and 'clean the floor of the till' whenever a customer walks past, making it look like the till is closed. Fun days...
