20. Youre Late. Youre Rushing. Youre Stuck Behind A Slow-Walker
Great dancing Jehovah. Could anyone be more irritating? If it was legal to carry a cattle prod on your daily business, the retail workers of the world would be the number one consumer. Tempted to overtake? THINK AGAIN! The Slow-Walker will suddenly turn into your new path and stop dead still. So be late, or knock grandma flat, those are your choices.
19. The Scummy Returner
Youve just returned an item for a customer, all seemed well and harmless until OH SWEET JESUS!? IS THATIS THAT A STAIN? WHY IS IT THAT COLOUR!? Theres not enough bleach in the world to make your hands feel clean ever again.
18. Getting Bailed Out By Security
As the delightful, tracksuit-wearing gentleman youve just refused to serve on account of him being out of his mind on blue bottled cider continues to yell at you, theres nothing more tense than the wait for security to arrive. You standing there, twiddling your thumbs as he spouts all the abuse he can muster, just praying someone with a walkie-talkie will turn up to bail you out. Awkward.
17. Working With The Guard Who Has Seen Some Action
What could make that wait more awkward? How about the guard who saves the day being a shell-shocked looking dude with a spaced out look in his eyes, whose body is more protein and steroid than any human should be possible of supporting? He shuffles up, mumbles something from his ridiculously muscled lips and scoops up his target with the lift of his pinky. Impressive, and monstrous.
16. Meerkatting When The Police Catch A Shoplifter
This is the closest you get to the grown-up version of someone screaming "FIIIIIIGHT!" on the playground. Word spreads like wildfire that something's kicking off and you HAVE to see it. Cue a rush of employees appearing from behind stands, straining their necks so much it'd impress a giraffe, and stare in awe as security drag some ne'er-do-well kicking and alcohol-fueled screaming out of the store. God speed, scumbag.
