Rob your take on Grocery Lines are SO True
This is what I really hate though:
I find a lot of white people (men and women of all ages) who don’t BAG
Sorry I just think it’s RUDE to everyone involved – the cashier AND the line of peeps waiting as you allow some 60 year old check out lady to bag your groceries
UGH!
