I work part time at a grocery store, but I'm in dairy...

Bagging is easy though, and you get to see so many milfs.

Just put the things in the bag, that's all there is to it. Don't put a gallon of milk on eggs or bread. Don't mix chemicals with food items, just use common sense. Also, welcome to hell.

apply for a promotion asap. I worked at a grocery store and I started bagging, but it sucked so I demanded a promotion and they gave me one and a raise. I moved into the back thats where the party is.

OMG that's what I do. Been doing it since the beginning of July. It's not really that bad. A lot of the managers at my store are really cool, especially when I used to close on Fri and Sat.

I hope I get promoted to GM soon.

Yep. You should be.

It'll be fine for a few days, maybe a week or two. But after that, you will want to commit suicide in a way where somebody will have to clean up your remains. Kind of like your last revenge for working retail. Not to mention the dumbass customers flooding the store and killing any and all creative and imaginative thought you could possibly have with their complete and utter idiocy. Good luck!

If you have cool co-workers, the back would probably be an OK job. I am such a sarcastic person by nature, I sometimes like working up front because I get to treat customers like sh** if they act up or are stupid.

yeah sarcasm is fun, but when I worked in the back we played games on the clock, like baseball, or harrass the people from customer service, or my personal favorite hide in the milk case and grab peoples arms as the reach for milk, ahh they could hear the screams in the bakery

Just bagging? I work at one and we do basically everything, even work in the meat department or sometimes the checkouts. Deliveries too. Everyone else looks like a bunch of lazy fatties compared to the stock people.

Here's what to do for bagging. Before you work, play Tetris for 6 hours. Bagging will be a cinch after wards.
