This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Carrots Vegetable peeler Lube

[–] spamspeicher@feddit.org 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What's a peeler lube? Or is it carrots vegetable?

[–] Faresh@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 months ago

I think the comment is missing some commas. This is what I think it's supposed to be:

Carrots, Vegetable peeler, Lube

As a former cashier (grocery store not walmart admittedly, but I doubt things are that different), I dont think weird uses for the items are the way to go, the cashier is barely even going to notice or care what you're buying. what I bring to freak out the cashier, are some item that needs ID to buy, some big heavy item with the barcode removed so that it will take a bunch of lifting and turning in a hopeless effort to find it before someone eventually has to go find another one and bring it over, and a propane refill if walmart does those (at my grocery store the process to go find a full one was a pain, especially in the winter since they were outside). Further, I try to buy these items with the help of a ton of expired and unexpired coupons mixed together, several gift cards, and a stubborn half-deaf old person who wont take no for an answer.

Would it be more or less frustrating if instead of an old person, it's a middle aged person who clearly doesn't understand the language but keeps smiling and nodding as if you're on the same page and any time you try to prompt for information, they encouragingly push their items towards you or try to pay you in a currency you don't recognize?

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 1 points 3 months ago

A bit less, partly because it's easier to be sympathetic to those people, and partly because, in my experience, it can be helped by getting out google translate on one's phone, if one can figure out which language it is

How make a cashier consider on the job suicide
