Stephen Humphries

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

Who do you think you are?

JOBS are few and far between these days, leaving us all with tongues bitten to avoid any disciplinary actions.

On Thursday a gentlemen came into the store and asked for 40 Regal Filter, I checked the display unit and the unit under our counter and then I replied; "We haven't got any in stock I'm afraid" as I knew Gemma I was working with had worked the delivery in the cupboard and if we did have them, then they would have been out. "Would you like me to ring the petrol station and see if they have any?" The man who was wearing some sort of tie displaying multiple ducks replied "No, they don't sell them anymore" with increased attitude.

"So you're not even going to go to the back and bother your arses to look?" as he went to storm off around the corner. At this point I was mid way though explaining "the-delivery-has-been-worked today, we don't have any."

He poked his head around the corner to say, our service wasn't good enough and then continued "You can call your manager if you have a problem with me, because believe me I have more of a problem with you than you have with me."

Now, I'm not been funny but why on earth did this man think that I would purposely go out of my way to piss him off? It's not even like we had a queue, there would have been no issue to go into the back if the cigerettes were there.

Gemma said: "You were really polite with him as well."

I know!
