To piggyback on the restaurant pet peeves thread ...

I get so mad when the teenage cashier at the grocery store is unable to tell the difference between a cucumber and a zucchini squash. Does the training they receive consist of only how to run the register? I can forgive them asking me; it may be difficult to tell the difference between a jalapeno and a serrano pepper, and they shouldn't have to put stickers on everything. I assume the only vegetables these kids are fed at home are french fries and cole slaw.

I am annoyed by cashiers who look over my purchases and say things like "that looks good" or "what does that taste like?". I want to tell them it tastes foul and I only eat it to punish myself for the bad thoughts I have about killing nosy cashiers.

Yours?
