I am 14, so my choices are very slim, and this is the only job I can work at since my age, but has anyone ever worked as a bagger? how was it? do you have to deal with a bunch of bitchy people? I am filling the application for Krogers.
 
Bitchey people all the time. Just remember. Boxes with boxes. Meat with meat. Frozen with the frozen (or cold items). Don't squish the bread. Eggs always by themselves (or with the bread). Ask if they want their milk in a bag, unless you're from Canadia, then it already is!

Bagging groceries is the worlds easiest puzzle.
 
honestly i'd find other work, if you know someone working in a bike/ski shop that's a good option, you just hang out and fix shit and carry boxes or unload trucks. also if you live near a farm they hire young-uns and you get good money for sorting corn and picking apples and shit. grocery stores are little pay and asshole employees so i'd look elsewhere, the only real plus is the air-conditioning
 
thats only in the east!!!

but yeah. i wokred as a cashier, and just pack on how you would pack your own groceries and make sure tha they are same items with same items.

and your arms are gonna get REALLY tired.

yea man dont do that shit. you get so much bitching and stress from a dumb ass job like that.

just mooch off your parents till youre 16 then get a real job. or a realerr job. im 17 and i work at a restaurant and a golf course. rolling in like 5-6k during the summer with free golf and dinner!!'

advice: patience...
 
milk comes in bags? weiirddd

yea. i've been working as a cashier for the past few months just for some extra change at my local Co-op (its essentially wholefoods just not called wholefoods?and people buy $300 member numbers that don't do jack other than "support the local grocery store")

people are CRAZY. i never realized the high concentration of crazy hipster people in my town until i became a cashier. people who are regulars also seem to think you care about their problems?

ex. "i'd like my applesauce bagged in plastic then double bagged in paper"

ex. the credit/debit didn't work for 24 hours one day and a woman started freaking out at me telling me that i did it on purpose to spite her.

ex. (weird woman from out of town comes in)

"my day has been horrible. my x-bf came to stay with me for a night of bad maksex and he had fleas"

tip: wear long sleeves. paperbags are the bane of my existance at work, they papercut my arms.

now that i think about it we had mini milk bags that we stabbed with mini straws in elementary school. anyone else?

on another note: canada is officially weird in my book. don't you guys eat fries with some weird condiment too?
 
Ok I have to post yet again. You must be talking about poutine, which is the most amazing thing in the world. Don't knock it if you haven't tried it.
 
yeah man i work at walmart and i bag and do cash at the same time so honestly its really easy i can do both at once like they said keep chit seperate never mix the chemicals with anything that you ingest they get really pissed off when u put motor oil with thier brread but it just takes time to get use to, just like everything in life
 
where you boys headed?

canada. were going over the boarder to canada for some french fries and gravy sir.

poutine.

canada huh? almost made it
 
I live in Vancouver and I haven't ever seen that in my entire life.

Then again, my butler does all the milk-shopping and tea-making for me, so maybe that's why.
 
maybe its just a vancouver island thing, we are a little odd...

I know I had them as a kid, but I want to say that they've been phased out of production. I'm checking this next time at work.

 
man, ive had bagged milk forever, the grocery store doesent reallt have any other kinds, and the only place i've seen with jugs with handles is the mac's milk by school... those little 1 litre chocolate milk jugs are prime for lunch...
 
I just applied for a job too at a grocery store im 15, i get paid like 7.25 and hour so thats like 108 bucks before taxes ahhaha, but yeah im going thorugh "training" as what they call it and honestly its not that bad. I can only work a maxx. of 15 hours, but i think thats enough
 
i really hope you had Zog's poutine

DELICIOUS

its also vegetarian friendly. haha

um milk in a bag is such an eastern thing. when i was staying with friends there i asked why the milk was in a bag and i just got stared at and didnt realize it was anything different out west. haha.

but really, how is that more convienent that a jug? because they sell special jugs to put your bags of milk in?
