Ok. I have to compose myself before I attempt to type this.
My co worker just encountered the EW of all EW's. Their leader, perhaps.
I decided to work in our office today (instead of at home), and the office is in a fairly rough neighborhood. He decided to get a few things from Kroger across the street, as well as a latte for me since they have a Seattle's Best. Yum!

But, I digress.
He got his items and went to the self scan. He sat his items on the side and was reaching into his wallet for his Kroger Plus card. A 20-something guy came up to him and the following conversation took place:
Guy: "Hey. Do you have a Kroger card?"
CW: "Yes."
Guy: "Can I use it?"
CW: "I guess."
At his point, he STEPPED IN FRONT OF my CW, and put his can of pringles on the scanner and waited for CW to scan the card.

CW, shocked - scans the card and steps back. At this point I think he just wanted to see where this would lead.
Guy scanned the can of pringles. Pringles is currently on special for .99 cents, but you have to buy 10 to get it. If you don't get 10, you pay the regular price of $1.49.
Guy: "Hey! This is supposed to be 99 cents!"
CW: .....
Guy: .....
CW: *looks at scanner* "Yep. Not 99 cents."
At this point, they both looked around for the attendant. Neither of them realized at this point that it was part of the 'buy 10 get it for x.xx' promo.
As CW was looking around, guy takes the can of Pringles and walks to the back of the store. Without a word.
The scanner was still saying 'please place your item in the bag', thereby rendering it ineffective.
By now, another self-scan has opened up. CW took his stuff, went to that one and checked out with no further drama.
Holy shit! The nerve of some people. Forgetting your shoppers card and asking to use someone else's is one thing, but to actually *step in front of them*, fuck it up, and then *leave the scanner disabled* because it scanned higher?
That took some SERIOUS balls.
And I'm STILL laughing my ass off.
I'm surprised he managed to remain calm enough to go get my latte after that, but I'm glad he did.
