Hello, I thought I'd just start with one short story that happened awhile ago.
I used to work as an assistant manager for a medical research charity, in this shop, there used to be shelves behind the till counter where the more valuable donations would be displayed.
On this occasion I was standing there serving, when a woman decided to walk behind the till to get to these shelves. I moved and blocked her path so she couldn't get any further. The woman, very deliberately moved to place one of her feet on top of mine, and increased the weight as she tried to explain how she was always allowed to go behind the till by the volunteers. This went on for about for only 5 or 10 minutes, with me trying not to let on she was hurting my foot (I didn't know how to react to what she as doing so just tried to ignore it) and explaining I'd be happy to just place items on the counter for her to look at, and if she could please leave the area behind the till for security reasons.
She gave up eventually, but my foot was sore afterwards! I hope that drabble made sense.
