... a 'bad' person?
My favourite grocery store has a 'special' person as a bagger. He's special cause he's got Down Syndrome. While I have nothing against him as a person, I do have something against his habit.
Whenever he bags, he always licks his fingers to get the bags apart and then pack your groceries.
I hate, hate, HATE that! [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70400-talktohand.gif[/img]
If I see that he's the bagger for a certain checkout, I'll join another line, no matter how long it is...
Sometimes though, if he's done at his checkout, he'll come over to the one I'm at [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]
Sometimes oonuu fi si how mi quick a grab mi sitn dem a shub dem eena de bag caw mi no waa im touch dem wid im spit-up finga [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif[/img]
Dis is de ting: I know that he 'senses' something. He's always hesitant whenever my turn comes up. If he's chatty and smiling with other shoppers, as soon as I approach, his manner changes. He watches me like him tink mi a go tump im [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img] or I'm going to start cussing [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/whatever.gif[/img]
I can see him struggling with the decision to pack my bags or not.
I don't want him to get into trouble - cause he can't just be standing there and not packing.
At the same time, I don't want him packing my bags. Period. I feel if I should say so, I would be labelled and worse, it would hurt him.
