"Still don't understand why half the country waits till the 23rd to do a big grocery shop & then complain that it's too busy 😂😂😂" maybe they didn't have time earlier? maybe they complain because people like to complain about everything? maybe they want to buy fresh food? maybe they planned to spend Christmas alone but suddenly their plans changed? Is it worth thinking about it at all? | |||

Is it worth thinking about it at all? When ya hear the complaint sooooo many times then yes it actually is " I agree, it's definitely worth thinking about. What I'm seeing is it's better to go at peak hours because everyone has the idea to go first thing in the morning. Christmas Eve is also better than the 23rd. It's worth listening to the complaints so that you can arrange to go at a different day/time. | |||

Some cunt waffle face came into the shop on 26th and ranted to the owners how he expected to be served a fry and now his family have nothing to eat for breakfast as the deli is closed. Owners made me open it the following year. Same cunt waffle face came in with a shit eating grin and had the cheek to ask me if I had a nice Christmas. I just gave him the look that would sour milk and replied "no, because I had to get up at 5am to serve you some sausages. Hope you're happy" He did complain about my attitude too. Not a single fuck was given. Missus | |||

Fair enough. I'll retract my remark with humility. 🫤"There is absolutely no reason to retract what you said,just because some people are being pedantic. The sentiment in your comment is what matters. I live up north now and I still call it Stephen's day and no one has ever been so petty to point out that the majority of people up here call it boxing day. And I only call it Stephen's day out of habit I don't do it to annoy anyone,the same as you didn't mean any harm. And yes fair play to all those who work in retail and hospitality at this time of year as they can quite often get so much abuse from cockwombles who do it just because they know they can't be called out on it by the worker. | |||

"Local petrol station stayed open till 8 last night It had lots of cars in it all day I was on driving duty yesterday so passed it a few times Went in for a coffee in the morning Student working behind the counter He was on double time all day Delighted with himself I couldn't understand wht people were filling their cars Why would you leave it until the one day most garages were closed Stephen's day / Boxing day Who cares what it's called Will we just change it to December 26th so as not to upset anyone " It’s becoming a society that every day will soon be the same Christmas Day whatever. Times are changing rapidly. 20 yrs ago you wouldn’t see a car on the road Christmas Day or very few even Boxing/Stephens day That has all changed Next we will see pubs open on Christmas Day like in the uk or up north. It’s becoming the new norm unfortunately. Fair play to you people who have no choice but to work on those days without choice They should be applauded and respected . Next we’ll have Santa 🎅 arriving in an E sleigh 🛷 no reindeer no more 🙈 | |||
