So I got a real gem yesterday. I'm standing in front of my register as I have no customers (pretty common at express in the morning). And this lady walks by heading towards the bakery area and well...
Lady: "Why don't y'all put the bread up front? Y'all put every thing else up front!"
Me: *trying really hard not to laugh* "I have no idea ma'am."
Lady: *turns around the corner to get her bread*
Me: *heads to co-manager who is standing at the Booth and tells him what happened*
CM: "Well what does she expect? Even Wal Mart puts bread in the back of the store."
Me: Indeed *heads back to register as the lady comes up with her bread*
Lady: "I still don't understand why y'all put the bread in the back."
Well what do you say to that. Seriously hello! Have you also wondered why things like milk and meat are also put in the back of a store? huh? Because it forces you to walk down aisles and pass items you weren't intending on buying, so that you might buy other stuff and spend more money. In other words the layout of a grocery store is designed to encourage impulse buying. That's right we're only interested in making more money. Big Surprise!
