B*tch, people go to 7-11to get in, get their stuff and get out in a hurry. The next time someone feels the need to use the entire counter to reorganize her purse and hold the entire line up in the process, I'm gonna sneeze on her.

I wonder how many gas store robberies start out with someone wanting to pay, then getting annoyed at something and pulling a gun.
The world may never know.

It always annoys me when people continue to loiter at the register after their purchase is completed. People are waiting behind you! Pick up your bag and move out of the way! It seems like most people are totally self centered and have zero consideration for others.
Related annoyance: people who hold up the line while they engage in a conversation with the cashier that is totally unrelated to their purchase. WTF? Don't you have any friends? Do you really have to go to a store and bother the employees in order to get someone to Converse with you?

I find it very annoying at the thrift store when people wait until they are at the cashier to sort out the clothes and items they are buying. One by one they pull them from the cart and look them over several times before either laying them on the counter to buy or asking the cashier to put them back. While the rest of us wait in a line getting longer and longer.

Am I the only one here who has 7-11ophobia? Ever since they put the convenient measuring tape up at the door so the employees could more accurately describe the robbers, it freaked me out.

this reminds me of a woman who kept asking me to move up so she could start unloading her cart. it wasn't even MY turn yet. the woman in front of me hadn't paid yet. /veggieface/
oh, and years ago the woman behind me told her kids to unload my cart ... um, NO!!! i am pretty easy going (at least in public) but HELL NO - leave my groceries alone!
and i agree with you about talking to the cashier. years ago when i worked at cracker barrel restaurant, i would always get to work with this woman who talked to everyone about everything. lots of people who came through my line at the register complained about her. she chatted while i worked.

LOL, I concur. It makes me nervous when stores in bad neighborhoods have the protective glass thingy around the cashier area, too. It makes me feel like I'm on the wrong side of the protection.
My "convenience store" is actually small gourmet market on the ground floor of my apartment building. As far as I know, they've never been robbed, although I feel like I've been robbed when I shop there.

What gets me is the very elderly retired rancher hogging the register with his lottery habit. He scratches off 5 tickets, gets one $3 winner, and buys 3 more tickets. Dude should get to the back of the line for each transaction and scratch tickets somewhere else.

Seriously people are getting ruder and more stupid every year. Sometimes I hate going out because of these people, I just want to call out every moron to dumb to know how a drive through is supposed to work, parents who do not keep their kids under control, or the dumb bi-atch that treats a cashier or waitress like a slave.

I don't think so in these cases. They even try jackets and shirts on at the register. One woman gave her daughter an armload of clothes to run back and try on while we all waited.

it also irks me when there is a line and a customer in CVS wants a bunch of transaction. i can see 2, but if you are doing more go to the back of the line!

If you're still shopping, get out of the checkout line! I will insist that you step aside if you try that when I'm behind you in line.

Not to point blame, but part of the neg situations could be improved by better-trained employees who direct the customers or who have the confidence to firmly remind them of the situation (having more than 15 items in the 15 or fewer checkout, is an example. Most cashiers can tell at a glance when a customer is over the item count and could easily and pleasantly tell the customer to use a different checkout line. imo it shouldn't be up to other customers to tell that person the deal).

though they should, they probably don't want to send the person off in a temper tantrum to go leave a complaint against them...

(I can't remember the last time I went in a 7-11. I don't smoke, I don't do the lottery, I don't eat crappy hotdogs, and the ones around here don't sell alcohol. And the grocery stores are open 24x7. Why do they still exist?)

I couldn't agree more. It makes me absolutely crazy when employees refuse to confront out of control customers. Whether they're opening packages of fruit to pick through them or letting their kids run wild, they're annoying and inconveniencing everyone else. If the a*hole customers get mad and don't come back, GOOD RIDDANCE!

Because I don't want to fight for a parking space, trek all the way through to the back of the store, wait in the check out line 15 minutes...just for a 1/2 gallon of milk.
But I'm lazy that way.

No kids. We don't keep milk in the house on a regular basis because neither of us drink much milk. Occasionally, someone will want some, and the resulting Toot 'n Totem run occurs.

This is a recent trend, if you hold a door open for someone coming after you, they just walk-through without touching the door. I am not your gooddam door-man, be courteous and hold the door for the person behind you.

Since this thread seems to be all over the place I will say that we hired the 1 800 Junk people and although they did a great job overall it was really annoying that the guy who was in charge kept stopping every 15 seconds to laugh and answer a text message or phone call.
