Random one I know but why do all the staff at Supermarkets park in the spaces nearest the store, meaning that 1000's of people have further to walk to t he store, a process that repeats itself once an hour on average, if the staff parked in the unused part furthest from the store all customers would have less far to walk and turnaround of shoppers would be quicker as they would get to the store quicker, and out of the car park quicker.

I worked out that this senceless laziness is costing the UK 13.2 billion a year, enough to double spedning on Education,

It really shouldn't allowed

What are your views, or is this just one of those things where I am in the minority in finding it irritating >

having worked in a supermarket for five years, the answer is simple.

The staff are normally there first, therefore get better spaces! Do you think the staff care that the customers have to walk across a car park?

Plus, they are probably running late as well.

In my experience at retail the staff are well-in with the CCTV cameras, if anything, they're after security as we worked late after the store was shut. The car was the star of CCTV, not really into the disability grabbers, usually the awful 4x4s would hog those, middle classed woman with screaming brat in tow. Nope, my colleagues wanted their motors to be alright on the night.

But they all don't sit in the canteen taking up valuable space do they, the customers use the space, surely the carpark should be the same ?

No, ah well, just being rather anally retentive again, although I have always felt I should retain said oriface, as it come in handy allot

I think retentiveness in the anus is a positive benefit. Think of the alternative.

Some sort of "solid style" dialysis machine perhaps? Speaking of which, I used to have a kidney dialysis machine........ I never got on with it, I found it quite rude in fact. It just used to sit at the end of my bed and constantly take the pi55 out of me.

I thought they did blood not piss ?

Technically yes, well it cleans the blood, and removes all the impurities (uric acid etc) which is something that the kidney should do. The kidney does this and excretes urine.

Stop spoiling my gag Boboff.... you get the idea.

Indeed, they don't call me Bob the Obscure for nothing you know, in fact they don't call me that at all.
