The Blog Rat is part of my split personality of student journalist Stephen Humphries.

Reading these rants can bring comedy to lifes little niggles.

These rants are mostly one sided and make rediculous generlisations of people and life.

The majority of posts are revolved around Stephen's part-time supermarket job, where he works as a cashier on a cigerette kiosk.

Be prepared for some ill punctuation and the occasional spelling error.

Enjoy

You don't even know us!

Woman comes along the other day, telling me all about the great deal we have.

'Spend £40 in store and receive a 6p off per litre of petrol at Morrisons' voucher.

Woman: Oh, I suppose you don't know anything about that yet do you? nahhhh

Me (laughing): Well, I've been driving 3 and a half years now, so I should do?

Woman: Noooo, I thought you were 16.

Quite the compliment, I thought.

WAIT FOR IT!

Woman: So what are you doing with yourself, Morrisons can't be your only ambition in life?

AND THERE IT IS!

*Little fuse in my head, snapped*

Fair enough, I get her point, but some people are genuinely happy to work in a supermarket and build their career through retail.

She didn't take much interest once I said I was at university and worked in radio.

This lady is one of many, why do they assume people have no ambition in life? You don't know us!

Maybe it's another compliment, she assumed my face wasn't meant for Morrisons?
