Lazy Damn Coworkers!!!
   by wtfmate I work at a Safeway grocery store in Canada. It's not that bad, but some of my coworkers seriously make me want to beat each and every one of them senseless. Similar to the "supermarkets, schmupermarkets" article, The employees at my store generally appear to be either under 18, or over 50. But that's not the point. I'm one of the people that they call a "Courtesy Clerk", otherwise known as the "bagger". My job involves bagging the groceries, helping people out to their cars, putting stuff people don't want back, sweeping up the store floor, etc., etc. I could put a full list of my duties, but I don't think you want to be here all night. Anyways, back to my coworkers. It's mainly the cashiers that do this but, whenever there's something that they don't particularly want to do, they go on to the intercom and say "can I get a courtesy clerk to (insert location here)," and it usually ends up being something that would've taken only about 30-45 seconds of their time. PFFT! They also insist on calling on us to "wrap" for them. Fuck, my job description says nothing about wrapping anything. It may sound like whining, but some people are just damn lazy. So to all that work at Safeway, a big fat fucking PFFT!!! P.S. Safeway includes Vons, Pak N' Save, Genuardi's, Carrs, Randall's and Tom Thumb
