As a nightstocker, I Fantasize about putting those people there...
chenoatao
them they looked surprised at the price. Asked again if they still wanted it, said yes. Found it three hours later in the bakery section.(2)
Worked in a Safeway deli, customer asked for 200g of prosciutto. Clarified that that shit's expensive. They insisted. When I handed it to(1)

This makes me insane. I used to work at a grocery store and don't understand why people are so fucking shitty and lazy
AwwstralianImgurian
Sad thing it's instantly a loss, it may have been on the shelf for 5 minutes or 5 hours.. What and absolute waste :(
SSColonelHansLanda
Some stores make you pay for the meat at the meat section, want your money back? Return the meat back to the meat section
MattDark86
I don't work in retail, but seeing this does annoy me too. Is it really that hard to put that thing back where it came from?
Demonsweat56
These are the same people that park like shitheads and cut in the deli line.
twinblackjack
I worked at Sams restocking overnight, one night I found where someone opened raw chicken and put it in a pile of clothes
GuineaPigFriend
Ugh when people put fresh food in the freezer!!
Lugh314159
...better than putting frozen food in the pharmacy section.
SnoweyTurtle
I used to work at a grocery store and someone put a container of ice cream behind a bunch of cereal and no one noticed for a long time.
It was disgusting to clean up. And we had to throw out a bunch of cereal because the boxes were all soaked in old crusty ice cream.
allginger
Used to work for that company. It's pretty true.
desertbear87

People are so lazy! Same thing with clothing...just keep it and let the checker know you don't need it!!

The back shelf of my department is barely 5 ft from a meat cooler. This. Every. Fucking. Morning.
SomethingCleverBand
There was an awful smell at the grocery store i used to work at.....finally found where it was coming from...put the chicken on top of (1/2)
(2/2) the ice chest for the bags of ice......by that point the chicken was black. It was disgusting.
DonIsMe
As Frito-Lay employee, can attest that I've found among the chips: hamburgers, chewed gum, opened peanut butter, and once a live lobster.
I'm seen Pepsi guys doing displays too... is their anything brand-name that walmart actually shelves themselves?
Nope. All major brands stock their own product in every store. Grocery stores, Wal-Mart, even your local gas station and convenience store.
dthninja2
I was at the store and someone had ripped the plastic on some chicken and flipped it over so the juices spilled all over the other chickens.

Nope... at least not while I was working there.
okay... that's actually kinda funny.

Raw chicken and ground beef left on top of baby wipes and diapers when I worked at Wal-Mart, Had to buy new work outfit and change in the

I never watched firefly, so this will go over my head
You should watch it, it's fantastic! This quote is from the episode "Our Mrs. Reynolds"
Honestly Im a "loser anime fan", Im not really into normal shows, but, you never know, some day in the future I might watch it.

As a bagger in a supermarket, what's worse is when they hide it in the magazine rack when they could have just handed it to me.
Adasoy
It is the same as doing Green Team at music festivals: "No, you are not a squirrel and stashing stuff in weird places is not "Helping" ".
Or they put it in the empty baskets near your til so you can't see it. ARGH
concaveUsurper
Went to get a drink out of one of the coolers up front, found a really gross looking pack of ground beef. I alerted the cashier but wtf!
Eatingscrambledeggfromashoe
As a checkout chick in Australia, I wish we had baggers :(
nothebees
Bilbo Bagger
WyldStallynsRule
Yup, finding packages of meat in the magazine racks was not an isolated incident for me as the closing cashier. Not by a long shot.
SuperPickle17
the store should file a report against the person for shoplifting... because there's not much difference...
marylanddd
do they have signs saying you can do that?
tizona
I make a habit of either bringing such items to a handy clerk or at least making it painfully obvious to them, so they can fix it.
TacticalChungus
I've worked in grocery stores for 9 years. This shit is real. It happens daily.
DrTadakichi
As an ex bagger of 4 years I tell people off for that shit now. Either put it back or tell the clerk you changed your fucking mind.
hearthstoneaccount3
And risk social interaction? Fuck that shit
leathersmt
Or embarrassment for changing their minds, egos are madening.
FuckFaceMcGillicutty
Almost as bad as people who leave their high beams on when they're behind someone in a drive thru
ScotsGentleman
Or driving without headlights on during the day when it is raining.
pleaseadopt
I just don't move until they behave. But be sure your doors are locked first
I always put shit back where it came from. It's just how it should be.
FartHands
Thank you. Much appreciated
futureman3000
I usually put shit into the toilet. I don't want it back where it came from.

Put that thing back where it came from or so help me!

Pom pom pom pom
And if you are too lazy to do this (with nonrefrigerated items, which must be returned to their proper place), marry someone who feels 1/?
bumurutu
You just described my wife and I perfectly. I had to explain to her why I always put the item back where I found it.
I just appreciate that my husband does it. There's no question who is the better person between us!
Washbuckethasalwayslovedyou
I worked in a walmart deli and at least twice a week people put raw chicken in the rotisserie chicken warmer. Was awful to clean, seriously.
berrieblu
That happened in my store too! Not that often tho.
iWasToldThereWouldBe
I feel sorry for all Walmart employees as it is, and worry this info will instigate intentional incidents :(
shimmernshine
There oughta be a law. Oh WAIT.
Mgmt is just like "it's only one chicken" yeah but the same person does it every week. Are you sure it isn't just a spiteful employee?
But only one chicken is all it takes to cause an outbreak.
True, but Bentonville doesn't give a crap. Insurance will cover any illness/injury claim. Does zero damage to bottom line overall.
Interesting.
Fortunately they also seem to be oblivious that Amazon has them beaten at dry goods retail, and they're catching up in grocery.
AussieBen
With meat its a dick move....Anything non perishable its a minor annoyance at best.
TheRicM
That's what she said
mthrndr01
I take it you are one of the feral humans that can't be bothered to put things back where they belong.
BrazilianThunderPanda
Ice Cream too.
dootdootfloop
just anything that goes in a fridge or freezer
TylerWarranty
Is it a major annoyance at worst?
Vectron
I swear some people do this on purpose; I often put back half a dozen items in reverse order, putting back one item leading me to the next.
kharkol13
Thrown out because once warm it is a health risk... but still thank you.
Like it's a fucking treasure hunt, without the excitement and treasure.
I want to say thank you but I really hope you don't put anything cold back. It needs to be temperature checked and is usually thrown out.
Should maybe have specified that I work in a non-food store; I wouldn't put back perishable items. 140 chars etc.
Racist AF I know, but this is invariably done by non-english speaking latinos at my local walmart. I think it's common practice in Mexico.
The Mexican grocer next door, you find crazy crap like this. One time I found an egg. A single raw egg, in the candy rack.
If mom is there shopping with 4 kids running around, the kids try to put stuff in the basket. "No" and back on the nearest shelf it goes.
Wanna downvote me for complaining about shit covered toilet paper in the trash cans because they don't realize the pipes can handle it?
NothingRhymesWithClockworkOrange
Sorry your ignorance is showing. probably should cover that up.
Uhm, likewise. Where do you live? I live in a predominantly mexican neighborhood in phoenix, AZ. I'm just sayin what I see. Not hatin.
I grew up in Los Angeles. You know what other stereotypes I noticed? Dumbasses who think they know what they're talking about.
I can't think of a more Angelino statement.
Stereotypes exist for a reason. Acting on those stereotypes without evaluating the person you're considering is prejudice.
I.E. Dude listening to ipod wearing $500 worth of NBA merch yelling about killin enemies... i'm going to dodge him. Sorry.
At the same time I will stop and share a smoke with a shady dude on his lunch break in a back alley. Danger advertises.
All Humans are stupid. There, a stereotype that is 100% accurate.
Either you're a troll or you hate your life.
And I'm not your normal troll. I'm doing this, I say these things because I want to see how imgur, specifically imgur reacts.
Por que no los dos?
TheEmeraldProphylactic
Keeping folk busy at work
cakeresurfacer
That's always my thought. Worked in a grocery store for 4 years. They pay people to put shit back all day.
Perchuuu
Except you can't tell how long its been out and its hazardous to peoples health.........
Fuck u
HeckuvaEngineer
They don't pay me enough. Minimum wage for being a bagger/janitor/cart guy/sane person? You can put your stupid crap back in its place.
RatBasil
As someone who works at a grocery store, this kind of thing is one of the reasons why we leave work hours after our scheduled times. Thanks.
I just said it keeps people busy. Personally I'm an anal bastard (both figuratively) who would never do this! I used to work in a (1/2)
SsSsSs111112232
Good to know I control your life, until now I was assuming you were responsible
Aw, I'm so glad you care. I could clock out when I feel like it and leave all the work to be done. That'd be great. However, I need my job.
Don't worry grocery stores are looking at automating self stacking soon. Won't be applied to existing stores for a long time tho sadly
Big grocery store around here is Union. You get in big trouble if you click out 5 minutes late.
Really? Wow. Our chain is big in the southeast, especially Florida. It's basically, clock out when you're done, but no overtime though.
Isuckwithnames
My store is union too, yet I get around 45 hours every week.
A lot of retail unions are worthless...the one I was part of sure as hell was.
