Yesterday I went to buy groceries in the night since I didn't want to go today, the weather has been pretty fucked up, how much? I just took a shower and I'm sweating, we are at 32 degrees, but it feels like 40, although we have been at 40 this week, anyway, that's not what I'm writing off.
I didn't know that the supermarkets were so full at night, it was like 9:30 when I got there, I didn't notice that there was so many people, so I got in the first line that I saw, big mistake, when I was midway I noticed that that line was a quick line, nothing more than 15 items, but the guy that was in front of me had way more than I had and I saw another one that was almost the same as I, and they attended him.
Suddenly a woman talks through the speaker saying that the line that I was was only for 15 items or less, but no one was moving, so I took the risk of staying there instead of going to another, I had already waited like 15 minutes in that line and I think I had to wait between 7 and 10 till it was my turn.
While I was waiting for my turn I was eavesdropping the other guys who were in the same line, like I said the guy who was in front of me had way more, so if they didn't say anything there shouldn't be a problem, and the guys who were behind me had even more, so it would be stupid to piss so many customers, at least that's what I thought.
When it was the turn of the guy who was in front the cashier told him something, I didn't hear it, but the guy just left everything there and go, I was thinking that I wasn't going to let it happen to me, there must be something to do, reason with her, or something. And I was going to play fool like I didn't hear anything saying that I had my headphones and that I don't wanted to way again like half an hour like I did.
So I start taking the things from my cart to the... thingy where you put your stuff... lol, I cant even remeber how it is called in Spanish, damn this sucks XD, but anyway, the cashier told me that I could only get 15, and I was ready to fight the fight, but then I just got mad and went home and I'll never buy there again...
Nah, just joking, I asked what she said, removing my headphones (I wasn't hearing music at the moment), and she repeated that I could only buy 15 items per cart... per cart.... per cart... and I just had an Idea, my brother accompanied me, he was near the exit of the store, so I said to the cashier, so only 15 items per cart?
She said yes... I yelled to my brother "Christian traite otro carro", and he came with it right away, I counted the first 15 items and paid for them, and asked my brother to take the rest, and paid for them (I had like 22 items in total).
Dammit, I felt bad for her since she was only doing her job and what her boss told her, but I felt good at the same time, I wasn't going to wait again, the lines were worse than when I started, and lets be reasonable here, given normal circumstances I wouldn't have any problem, but everyone had more than 15 items, it was full as hell, and they were trying to impose that rule?
In other stores they don't do that kind of stupid things, neither in Soriana nor in Smart, and I suppose that Walmart isn't that stupid either, the only thing that they do is piss people off, people that have been waiting half an hour in a line, should they have told us before there wouldn't be a problem, but come on, the guys who were in front of me won't be coming back in a long time, if they come back, they lost a customer there, and I didn't stay to see what happened with the ones that were behind.
I just went out like I had won a fight, I felt like a baws XD
