So I guess if you have time to rag on me it must mean that you
finished mowing that postage stamp sized "lawn" around your tarpaper
shack ...
Unlike you , I don't have a "faggot lover" . Max is my dog , a 70
pound Mountain Cur who probably has a higher IQ than you . That gallon
of milk will last us about 2 weeks unless I go crazy with cereal or
cookies and milk .

Same here for a lot of things. Pork especially since we have one of
the major Smithfield plants here, now converting to domestic production.
 
Those of us who scratch cook, aren't having much problem other than
swapping an item or so about.

My new favorite dip/spread. Amazing with salty round tortilla chips. Use in sandwiches in place of mayo. Roast the red peppers and of course, the walnuts. The recipe I used:

They probably can't hear the music, with your loud mouth constantly
running.

They're probably praying for the last day of the semester so they can
fly the coop. I can't believe any but John would be so rude as to
subject his boarders to his choice of music. They probably do all their
studying at the library so they can concentrate and have some peace and
quiet.

True. One would have to consume some pretty powerful drugs to be
able to listen to bitches brew.

Thanks! Our health department puts out a 'heat map' showing the cases and

Memorize produce codes??? They have stickers on most of the fruit these
days and pass them over scanners. The have booklets with lists of
produce names and the codes. In many cases they call the cashier next
too them or send someone to check,

Everything in stores these days is barcoded and scanned. I find it hard
to believe it's so different on his "rock". Cashiers don't even need to
know how to count back change when someone hands them cash.

Sometimes, when I buy an exotic fruit, the checkout chick will ask me
what it is. Not every individual achacha fruit has a barcode on it.

So true about making change. I had a number of jobs where I dealt with
cash and making change. It is second nature for me to hand a cashier a
bill larger than the total and then the right about of change to get the
least number of coins back. You have to do it before they register the
amount tendered because the machine tells them how much change is due
and it's beyond their ability to supersede the machine.

My guess is that most produce don't have codes stuck on them - for practical reasons. The labels that are stuck on there are done by the wholesalers or the suppliers - not the markets.
 
If you have to look at your code books when ringing up produce, you might be better suited for restocking the shelves or greasing shopping cart wheels duties.
 
You also have to be skilled at identifying different fruits and vegetables. For instance, you should be able to tell the difference between an Anaheim and poblano pepper. I have had cashiers ask their co-workers for a produce code/identification. The person they ask won't scan or use a lookup book. They've memorize the codes - I know that sounds positively medieval but I wouldn't worry about it. In the future the checkout will be manned by bots that see and know everything. They'll know everything that you've purchased. They'll even know how many times you've farted into the cereal boxes.
 
My son didn't have much problem memorizing the codes. His friends tell me that he has a photographic memory.

I find it easy to believe that you've never had to rely on your brains on your little rock or in life. We're talking produce here i.e., fruits and vegetables, not the stuff on the shelves.
 
Thank you for bringing up that counting change when giving back money chestnut. I'm sure we need to go through that routine yet another time. It's a classic rfc shtick! Carry on.

Months? You don't think your barber would wear a mask?

His fetish may involve fantasies about Kelly McGillis of three and a
half decades ago. I have been through a number of different Amish
communities and most of the women were chubby, pale skinned and looked
like they were all related to each other. Amish women were never on my
bucket list.

You griped upstream about makeup as well as lipstick that's why I stated
what I did.

You'd not know if she did or did not have on makeup unless you were told.

Again, you would not know if she had on makeup or not unless it was pointed
out to you. As soon as someone says 'makeup' to you you're all up in arms
scream about it. And again, I'm bringing up makeup because you griped
about the use of it earlier.

Easy to say when you're not wearing that ruddy complexion. I would
imagine she got tired of the stares and probably rude questions as well.

And then wear a Covid-19 mask or a heavy veil on the lower portion of her
face like they do in many Middle Eastern countries? Thank goodness ol'
Gary has it all figured out for us. What would we do without you sensitive
and caring attitude?

You and I must be looking at two different pictures. She ruddy complexion
girl does not have on red lipstick. Pink perhaps, but then again that might
be her natural lip color.
> attention to the lips. Why? Because they are fake looking.

But the cat has no lipstick on. But here's a shocker for you! Yes, bright
and/or bold lip color does draw attention to the lips. Ummmmmm, that the
point!

They're free at all the other grocery stores here as well. The 25¢ charge is
to ensure you will return the cart to the front of the store. It keeps them
from having someone rounding up carts from all over the parking lot.
 
I see homeless folks pushing shopping carts they've stolen full of junk quite
often. Kroger has a wheel-lock on their carts that corresponds with a buried
sensor running the perimeter of their lot. Get too close to it while unloading
your groceries and the wheels lock up. Guess how I found out? >:o(
