    As I work long shifts I often hit the supermarket (Tesco) around 3am in the morning, which is bliss in respect of it being quiet, and I'm often the only shopper in the store, but I find the store staff are very ignorant and block the isles with their big cages and are reluctant to go and look for products that are out of stock on the shelf, even though you know damn well they are in the warehouse because they are busy stocking shelves for the next day!

    I can appreciate many of them just want to get on woth their job without disturbance, but they are still there to serve the "few" public that frequent the store during these hours. I won't tar them all with the same brush though as I've found a few to be more than helpful when I've needed something and they've gone out of their way, and often encroached onto a different department to help me :)

    the only downside of shopping at those times is there are no reduced bargains left!
