Those who used to work at a supermarket!

Do you plan on watching 10 Items or Less premiering tonight on TBS at 11?

I've always thought that they should make a sitcom on the supermarket life - I cant wait to watch it!

Me too! We also didn't accept credit cards either (I stopped in '93) so it was either cash or check.

I also leveled for a while. That's how I met my first boyfriend. Chat Icon

I loved leveling too. Especially the bread.

And not to sound like a total sl ut but I think I dated someone from every department of the supermarket!Chat Icon

Re: Those who used to work at a supermarket!

I just hated the leveling since the manager that usually made me level had it out for me once I became a F/E and a bookkeeper (i was only 17 - you were supposed to be 18, but none of the 'adults' wanted the extra hours/responsibility). Once I became one, I only was a cashier like 1-2x a week at most... so she would watch me like a hawk when i leveled. She'd yell at me down the aisles, and then talk to me like i was 6 if a jar was slightly off.

Ugh! I loved returns though - especially when obscure items would have me searching - and off leveling - for hours Chat Icon

Chat Icon There is now a Staples there in Hicksville/Plainview. the store is now Shoprite and moved across the street.

Sad thing is sooooo many people I worked with are still there.
