    Tend to be located near many urban areas. They might live in a more rural area with only small towns and villages.

    Yes, thats true, however my comments were directed at some one who can't find any other work other than retail or accounting.

    Accountants don't tend to congregate in rural areas, neither do Tesco, Marks and Spencer or Morrisons.

    I'm sorry to say, from being threatend constantly and threats towards my girlfriend I had to develope a "Withdrawn cant be assed" attitude,

    So Tesco's customers constantly threaten staff and your employers do nothing about it?

    Again I find this hard to believe.
  • I have emailed waitrose 3 times because i found lots of bugs in the strawberries i bought from there. i keep emailing but have had no response at all from them.

    Never thought of complaining about insects in fresh fruit and veg before, normally just wash them off!

    Am quite happy when I find creatures still living in my fruit & veg. At least they haven't been blasted by pesticides.
    As above, just give 'em a rinse & pray it's not a poisonous illegal immigrant!
    Yet another good reason to buy locally produced fruit & veg! (Yes I know, can't apply this to bananas etc! Still cross because accidently bought broccoli produced in Israel the other day- it's in season here :mad: !!!)
    Worse things will have happened in the world today...

    What the hell - why are you lot sympathising with supermarket staff? What an arrogant view! "Look at the poor supermarket staff - they couldn't get a real job elsewhere but bless their hearts, they stuggle along".

    You do realise some people enjoy their jobs? Luckily for some supermarket staff, the customer part of their job isn't too large a proportion of their day so they can enjoy doing the job they're employed to do.

    My wife's a manager at Tesco and only last night someone called her a failure (she wouldn't serve someone underage, cigarettes) and that she should get a proper job. The attitude of some customers is disgusting and the irony is, the jobless chavs last night were shouting at someone who earns £30k and is actually in a very comfortable job if it weren't for the their presence!



    Edit: AND, why is the OP still shopping at Tesco?!! Tesco seems to have the highest number of customers who hate shopping there but demonstrate incredbly high loyalty! (waiting for people to claim Tesco's the only company 'left' in their town, or similar tosh!)

    I think dealing with people like that would make my day, it's a bonus not a bad part of the job,well that's how I would see it.

    They will more so than factories, even villages have Tesco Express's or some similar type of store.

    Theres another thread on the front page where I've commented on this. I hope Taxiphil comes here and says he doesn't shop at Tesco. It would be really nice to actually know there is a Tesco hater who doesn't actually keep on shopping there!

    EDIT: You've seen it then!
