My wife said to me yesterday we needed some bits from the shops, so we made a list and off I went, now I use a mobility scooter ran into my first problem immediately three young women across the path two with push chairs, would not move an inch, so had a really difficult job getting by, to I might add filthy looks, next problem three women walking along the path side by side had to ask several times before they would move to let me pass, I am very polite when asking but it makes you angry that they can treat you with such contempt, got to the shops, Iceland not too bad very helpful staff, moved on to Sainsbury's what a nightmare, kids everywhere but not with their parents, or should I say mums as there was no sign of dad's, on those scooters up and down the aisles, turns out they were Romanian, many different children of different cultures just running or skipping along the aisles, got to the self service check out, a young couple decided to race me to the machine, then out of the blue the Roumania family shot past me blocking the access to the till, finally got to the till put my stuff through when a very nice member of staff helped me to put my stuff through and pack it, so onwards to Aldi, same problem packed with Eastern Europeans, now I do not have to much of a problem with them, but it riles me when I am pushed about, walked in front of, leaned across and treated as if I am not there, and when I got to the till it is a mad rush your stuff is sent flying through the till and it is impossible for you to cope with the speed that it comes at you, so not at all happy, got out as quick as I could and shot home for a well earned cup of tea, will not go out shopping after 10am on a Friday and not at all on the last day of the month especially when the kids are off school; is it to much to expect a little respect from the younger generation??. really not a chance in reality.
