So let’s take Sainsburys. 

Looks very much like they got rid of about 70% of their check-out-staff over the last few months. 

Whilst the remaining 30 of the 100, disabled or not are chased all over the massive floor to collect online orders, stock the shelves or jump about self check out to assist with computerised procedures and the many malfunctions of the human replacement system as if it was a fitness exercise. (Not that I’m not all in favour of being/staying physically active, but I am pretty sure that most of them chose their original job because they do have restraining ailments.)

Me on the other side I am paying almost double for my weekly shop compared to “a (not so long) while ago”…. And somehow I always feel somehow there should at least be somebody/something personal at the end of it who/that “actually” takes my money…if it is not anyway all down to card payment.  

(Not even mentioning the fact that with every in-house discount card used they are getting shitloads of insight into “MY PERSONAL HABITS”…. in return...... plus a precise recording of me going through the process, probably using the latest facial recognition technique). 

Almost sure they would if they could love to keep tabs of my vitals and bodily functions....would most certainly benefit more precise prediction and exploitation of my shopping behaviour!?

In my opinion (usually as always seem to be the only one thinking that way) that is a really unbalanced, bad deal …. though I am made to believe it is all about GOOD FOOD FOR ALL OF US???? And that is just for starters…..

Adding insult to injury….or the other way round ….I m literally doing their job for them. 

All the scanning all the typing and selecting on screen, all the packing and paying….and in the worst case I do also have to get into an endless queue to wait for my turn to do it!!!! 

Most days it feels like THEY SHOULD ACTUALLY PAY ME for it!!!!

Clearly spoken and looked at. Well then again who does still look clearly at things these days and who is still able to articulately express themselves.

As most of these self proclaimed TRUTH-SEEKERS out there are unfortunately far from being actual TRUTH-SPEAKERS. And are mostly babbling along just to have something to say to feel important about. 

As if they were two entirely seperate species, who would probably not be compatible or get along with each other too well.

In my personal experience it is more like the 1st does not normally like to hear the last. 

Tried that quite a few times usually always resulted in BOXING DAY......

So as so many times before it is probably easiest to Don't look, Don't listen, Don't linger ...get on (with it) and (figure it) out....try not to explain or complain and grab the bags and yes.... pack the BOXES .... 

(And actually just quickly and to finish this paragraph.... I think I forgot one... Have to mention that besides the seeker and the speaker there is the "truth see-er". They just simply quite uneventfully KNOW WHEN THEY KNOW.)
