I can see my doctor whenever I need to face to face and normally within a day. We can use card cash or chèques here with no problem but on holiday in Holland last week most places only took card but one coffee shop had a sign saying card only but had a cash tip jar. And the tip is open to take anything I want to dump with no problems. I like life here. T | |||

"Self service tills at supermarkets; they bloody well hate me, I swear. ‘Unexpected item in bagging area.’ ‘Please wait for assistance’ etc. Bar codes not scanning….Grrrr! " Don't take anti-diarrhoea pills (or paracetamol etc) to the self service device. They are not heavvy enough to register when you put them in the bagging area and will need the intervention of the assisant, that gorgeous girl you fancy, who then finds out that you suffer from the runs! | |||

You clearly haven't worked out that all you need to do is tap the bagging area side hard when you put light items down and it registers it being there then | |||

I have what I deserve a new car that updates itself to keep the safety functions and system top notch and an older "normal" car when I fancy driving that one. Both paid for and worked for too, what a miracle in this world! | |||

Had my second falling out with ALDIs today. They want to look in the bag I had brought into the shop. I refused. They called the manager who insisted that I would have to wait to buy my stuff until they had looked at the security cam footage. I told her to fuck off and left the shop with my bag. I will never use that store again. I hate being made to feel like I am a thief. | |||

" No, it's because it's a glorified MS Forms thingy and no-one has worked out you can filter for time/date submitted. They decide they can only handle same day queries to avoid them overlooking a submission from the previous day. In a nutshell, people need to become more IT literate. | |||

They have people on the rob left, right and centre and Aldi generally refuses to pay for security guards and instead expects its store managers and deputy managers to defend stores from thieves. The managers get criticised for excessive losses due to theft and stores in the same region are pitted against each other in a league table of "success". If you have nothing to hide, why not just show them inside your bag? They don't know who you are. I'm assuming you consent to having a bag search going into a music venue or in an Airport, but I also assume you have no intentions of carrying on an explosive device. Do you object to searches of your bag in these scenarios too and if not, why not? | |||

" When it became the norm for people to nick jars of coffee, vac-packed steak, wine, nappies, laundry detergent, large blocks of cheese and anything else they fancy. Shoplifting is happening on immense scales. My brother has chased after many a regular thief. Aldi discipline their managers for the consequences of shoplifting so it's unsurprising if they might ask to look inside a bag. It happens on the regular if you manage to set off the alarms in many shops, you are expected to open your bag, show a receipt and probably head to customer service to get the electronic tag thingy taken off. The difference is this usually falls to security staff but Aldi is generally too tight to pay for security. The way they keep the prices low is to get one person to do what three might do in another supermarket brand and by expecting the managers to work miracles. Presumably, they're supposed to ward off shoplifting by the power of thought or something. Instead of telling the store staff to fuck off, the previous poster could perhaps have been more polite. The staff were doing their jobs. | |||
