Went to the supermarket on the way home from work. 18:54 - Jul 29 with 17376 viewsShawsey

A woman was trying to buy bedding with some sort of food voucher from the government. The cashier rightly told he that it had to be spent on food for her children. A manager was called and she confirmed that the woman had to buy food with them. She was well p****d off and left the bedding behind. On my way out she was at the kiosk trying to but cigarettes with it. Unbelievable. I feel so sorry for her children. She certainly hadn't gone without food.

I don’t know the context, you’re right but his post was nowhere near as rude as yours. If I’ve missed something on another thread then I’ll apologise.


He called him a prick Paz. That's why Jeera told him to eff off. Sometimes you're very selective about what upsets you.

I can't be expected to remember every crap post I downvote, even if you seem to!

Look you jumped in, got it all wrong, and made a very angry plum of yourself. But it's OK, Sprucey forgives you

Oh and I've tried asking Jeera out but, gosh darn it, he's just not that into me!

The up votes given for the below post would suggest I didn't get it all wrong. Or does it depend on who the up votes are from? You seem to know how TWTD works better than me it seems so I will bow to your greater knowledge

No anger here, I can't speak for others.

It's generally an affluent place though isn't it.

Not that it's my place to suggest or guess what you may have, and I don't want nor need to know.

But if that were me witnessing something like that I'd be more tempted to wonder how I might be able to help out, even if it means giving the lady a tenner for the cigarettes if I could afford it. No reason why not is there?

A small show of kindness can have a hell of a knock-on effect you know.


Buying people cancer sticks is not a show of kindness.

My eldest niece's husband works for UPS.

He's some IT bod who is responsible for some serious logistical co ordination for goods all over the UK and the Nordics.

He has been pulling his hair out over this saying that people have no idea what the hell they are having to deal with over this. They are having to employ a lot more people to help them cope with the prospect of overwhelming red-tape etc.

As he says, costs will need to be passed on down the line. This isn't going to be free.


Indeed.

It'll put in the sort of costs and hurdles that supply chain organisations have spent hundreds of billions over the years trying to remove.

On top of that, the knock-on effect on foreign investment and indeed many UK trading companies' planning here in the UK will likely knock a few more percent off our GDP.

For a country that's already lagging a fair bit behind on productivity this looks like it could accelerate a much more serious recession.

That's not how ignore works... If you can't see his posts you've put him on ignore.

If he ignores you, he can't see your posts but you can still enjoy his.

You never told us how come you didn't get upset that Jeera was called a prick, which after all was what caused Jeera to tell the poster to eff off.

I don't put much faith in this IP address wizardry anymore after bring told for months that Grimboy wasn't Arsey, only for it to be revealed that Grimboy was indeed Arsey and he was banned.

The sad thing is it’s going to be difficult to assess the true benefits of Brexit now we have Covid. Without the virus our economy would have shot ahead of the euro zone in the medium to long term but the effects of this will muddy the waters. I firmly believe we will recover from Covid quicker than the EU because of Brexit.
Anyway, this thread isn’t about Brexit. Let them eat cake, or something
