There are angry people around Adelaide and it is what I said because we have been brooding. Trouble is, it is coming out in the wrong way. There is one supermarket which needs to stop its refund if we scan at the wrong price . It is causing havoc out there for the check out operators. For starters there are a number of customers who do not understand the policy and then there are some new check out operators who are confused by it. The latter will get sorted out by the store but the customers will only be stopped if the policy is stopped. I saw a check out operator bullied into giving items free because the customers were just so unpleasant and sarcastic. The girl was probably new and could only go so fast so to cop a barrage from one customer and then have the one behind raving on about how things were going off in his basket ...because of our heat...I felt sorry for her.Even the guy who was called to help the check out operator couldn't deal with these two they were so horrible. There are some really opportunistic people around at the moment and it is what they can get away with and THEY DO NOT CARE. This isn't how we are normally but it is what I am seeing and hearing. One woman was going off in a very aggressive manner at the garage at 7 am . She was nasty, abusive...we were trying to wake up and didn't have that kind of energy in the morning. She was in full flight and it took me a little while to get the man behind the counter to calm down. I could see he was ready to burst himself and it was wrong he had copped that first thing in the morning. Then I got to work and had a rash of tetchy, aggressive calls... So I think some people around town need a few lessons in dignity and decorum...and then etiquette. It is really horrible these people are what working people have to put up with. In the heat most people are being pushed...so a bit of consideration wouldn't go astray or we'll all be out on stress.
