Quoth smileyeagle1021 View Postyou know, if I'm out shopping and someone asks for help, you know as one shopper to another, like the "hey, where are those (items) that you have in your cart, I couldn't find them" type thing I have no problem helping them...
"Hey, where'd you find the Doritos, I've been looking for those!"
"Oh, they're on the endcap of Aisle 12, can't miss them."
"Great, thanks!"
and:
"I want those chips! Take me to them NOW!"
"Um, I don't work here."
"Yes, you do! Now help me out or I'll tell your manager!"
If it's a question I can answer, I'll answer it. Anyone starts demanding that I do things for them, forget it.
Quoth NightWatch View PostMy friend carries a metal baseball wrapped in barbed wire in his trunk. He's never used it, it's mostly for show. When he has pulled it out, his attackers usually think "oh shit, you gotta be completely psycho to carry a barbed-wire wrapped bat", so they tend to leave him alone. I've seen the thing, it looks pretty vicious.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

Quoth mattm04 View PostOne lady, not old and senile, just the type that assumes younger people must work for whatever store they are in. She walks up to me...
SC: Go in back and get me some more *whatever*
Me: i don't work here
SC: Yes you do
Me: No I don't. Does it look like i work here? *points to shorts/polo*
SC: Yes. (in the your a retard voice) Now go get me *product*
Me: No. *i walk off, while the SC is screaming and pouting would put a 2 yo. to shame*
SC: I telling a manager and will get you fired for not helping me.
I felt sorry for the manager that had to deal with her.You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take,and statistically speaking, 99% of the shots you do take.

I've had quite a few cases where people have mistaken me for an employee in other stores; however, the clothes I was wearing in every single case were definitely impossible even for the most visually challenged SC to mistake for uniform. Particularly the battered, greying Slipknot hoodie with the mended pockets which I was wearing practically every time. XD
Regarding weaponry; when I used to go up to London to catch the coach to go visit my granny, I used to carry around with me a cigarette lighter in the shape of a gun. It was incredibly realistic; it even had removable "bullets". It was pretty heavy so could be brought down on someone's head or I could burn them. XD I also had body spray in my handbag; unlike pepper spray, perfectly legal. Not so sure about the imitation gun; especially seeing as those are no longer made round here. O.o

Quoth Leopardmadcat View PostLet me get this right: This guy followed you in his car after uttering threats against you? And he's not in jail or a shallow unmarked grave? You have more patience than I do.
At the very least I would have phoned the cops and had them pull him over, and followed that up with an utterance and stalking charges.
Good on you, AdvancedFlea. I don't think I would have the balls to say what you did to this other guy. And directing him to the other store was a stroke of genius.
I don't like shopping in Tescos anymore - its too 'rush-rush' for me. All other shoppers go around in a blind panic and seem to operate on one brain cell. Even seeing them driving into the car park as fast as they possibly can is a bit disturbing. Its a bit like Wal-Mart, from I have read. The final straw was a lot of psychological pressure as a lone shopper at the checkout once, feeling a sense of being rushed, struggling to open a plastic bag and forgetting to pick up the receipt.
I go to Morrisons now, which offers a more sedate shopping experience. The cost of shopping is about the same as Tescos too.

Quoth MattW View PostIn the UK, it takes an extremely serious crime to get the police off their asses to do anything in a situation like this as its a 'one-off'. Only at the stage that the stalker became physically violent would the police take serious notice. Police forces have been strongly criticised in the past by victims groups for not taking stalking seriously.
