Store cashiers chewing gum

[gsdx]

If they must do so, I wish they would learn to chew with their lips closed instead of chawing away and making all those snapping noises.

Kind of puts me off all the groceries I'm buying.

It's their cud. And in my experience many of them are the size of cows!

Why would anyone chew gum other than to annoy other people?

I bet when they see you coming they start chewing that gum just to annoy you...
Hey they need some kind of entertainment.

*chews gum*

I'll take the cud-chewing any day rather than go back to the days when they stood there with a cigarette hanging out of their mouths and the ashes falling all over your merchandise. Gross!

Umm i work part-time in retail to cover my student loan bills and I chew gum a majority of the time. I am really doing to try to not offend customers.

From what I know of you here, I'm sure one of those people who chew discreetly and politely. I'm talking about the people who look like they're chewing on a piece of beef gristle the size of a golf ball.

(And, just between you and me, if you smacked your gum at me, I'd probably take it as a compliment. But don't tell anyone. )

It's even worse when the chew snuff and spit. *Ptooie*

People sniff snuff & sneeze. They chew t'baccy.

Dainty kerchief or brass spitoon, anyone?

It's the other way around with me, I hate when customers are doing it. Sometimes I wanna reach over the counter and.... you know what, peaceful place!

It' sjust rude, put it to the side or something.

I refuse to chew gum almost anytime (unless needed), because of one of my high school teachers.

He showed us research that proved when you chew gum, your 'IQ appearance' drops an average of 12 points. So that means that if you normally look like you are really smart, with gum in your mouth, you look like you're just kind of smart.

Therefore, if Mr. Phillips (my teacher) caught us chewing gum, he would remove 12 points from our last graded assignment.

I'm a gum holder, not a chewer. I chew a piece up and push it to the back of my mouth and under my tongue. This became a habbit after I got this job where we weren't allowed to chew gum because we were dealing with customers. I was a hardcore gum chewer until that job.

haha right on gsdx!! I thought I was the only one with this picky pet peeve!

What's even worse is when you're eating with somebody that does the same thing right next to you... so they're pretty much chewing right beside your ear... that snapping sound is PIERCING!

Just chew with your mouth closed!!!!

HAHA... I actually feel better now.

thanks!!

Could be they're chewing gum to conceal the belt of Vodka they took on break.
Some might need a shot to deal with some of the freak shows in line. Like the lady in hair rollers holding uo the line while she's saving mankind on her cell phone.

I say we all move to Singapore where gum chewing is illegal.

If you get caught, can I use the cane? Or do you want me to find that cat-o-nine-tails again? I'm sure I left the leather paddle at your place. (Have you looked under the cushions?)

I have your paddle hangine on the dungeon.....errrrrm.....basement wall, right next to the St. Andrews Cross. Oh, and by the way, that was your dildo you left under the cushions.

 

[gsdx]

So THAT'S where I left it!!

I wish it were illegal here. I am tired of hearing the woman in the office next to me popping gum all day. It it so loud that it sounds like she is setting off firecrackers.

Umm i work part-time in retail to cover my student loan bills and I chew gum a majority of the time. I am really doing to try to not offend customers. I usually work nights after I have worked all day at my full time job. Basically there isn't time for me to go home and brush my teeth, so I always try to freshen things up with some gum!

I'm a retail employee too who's paying for school. I have an idea, how about customers don't talk on their cell phones WHILE they're in line. How about that? And I chew gum. I mean, come on. People are in my face at work. I can't have Godzilla breath.

Or talk on their cell phones, you know the kind with the big earpiece.
