Nothing.

I have MUCH larger concerns than anything that can happen at the grocery store.

I choose the green bananas, that way they don't all have to be eaten in three days before going bad. Also, if you want them to turn yellow (ripen) faster, keep them in a plastic bag instead of open air.

It doesn’t make me mad, but it can be kind of inconveniencing to go to my small town grocery store, knowing damn well I can never go in and out without having to talk to 10 different people

A certain segment of society that will take up the whole isle and won’t budge if you’re trying to get by.

It’s one of the few places they have any power. Very sad to see and pathetic.

If I’m in the store I am mad.

When they don't have enough staff to man any of the checkout lanes, and I have to use self-checkout. I feel like I'm doing labor without getting paid.

Mad that Winn Dixie became Aldi. Aldi is fine if you need something basic, like a chicken breast and an onion but if whatever you are making has 5 ingredients they wont have 2 of them. I went the other day and they didnt have any potatoes. How the hell does a grocery store run out of ALL type of potatoes? No yukon, russet, red or anything.

Aldi is like grocery shopping at a Dollar General.

I had a WD 1/4 mile from my house and it was great. Now I have to travel 5-6 miles through some of the worst traffic in Tuscaloosa to get to publix.

I wish a meteor would hit every single aldi and also the building where their board of directors is meeting.

> Slow fat-asses moseying and meandering in the aisle and preventing anyone else from getting through.

> People who push their buggies down the middle of the aisle and leave no room for others to pass in a head-on meeting.

> People who stand right behind you in the checkout line.

> People who don't know how to use that little bar to separate their groceries from those of the person ahead of them.

In summary: People.

Honorable mention: Front wheels on buggies that either stick, pull to one side or the other, squeak, or rattle when they roll due to chipped rubber.

I hate that Kroger has shifted to less variety of products and more towards pimping their private selection brand/Kroger brand shite that majority of the time isn't as good in quality. It results in quality brands being frequently out of stock and their shite is worse than Great Value these days.

This in turn forces me to go to Meijers, who has the absolutely worst checkout set up of mankind.

How the middle of every aisle is filled with displays of bullshite products making it impossible to navigate other shoppers.

People who take 2 steps through the door then fully stop to situate their cart, get their list out, arrange the contest of their purse etc all the while clogging up the entrance.

One of these days imma snap and plow one of these dimwits with a cart
