Tesco (or 14
things you should do ....)
Proof of what
can happen if a wife or girlfriend drags her husband or
boyfriend along shopping so the moral of this story is not to
take us shopping!
This letter was
actually sent by Tesco's Head Office to a customer in Oxford :
Dear Mrs.
Murray, Whilst we would like to thank you for your valued custom
and use of the Tesco Loyalty Card, the Manager of our store in
Banbury is considering banning you and your family from shopping
with us, unless your husband stops his antics.
Below is a list
of his actions over the past few months all verified by our
surveillance cameras:
1. June 15: Took
24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's trolleys
when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set
all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute
intervals.
3. July 7: Made
a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to feminine
products aisle.
4. July 19:
Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code
3' in housewares..... and watched what happened.
5. August 14:
Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
6. September 15:
Set up a tent in the outdoor clothing department and told
shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring sausages and a
Calorgas stove.
7. September 23:
When the Deputy Manager asked if she could help him, he began to
cry and asked, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'
8.. October 4:
Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror,
picked his nose, and ate it.
9. October 10:
While appearing to be choosing kitchen knives in the Housewares
aisle asked an assistant if he knew where the antidepressants
were.
10. November 3:
Darted around the store suspiciously, loudly humming the Mission
Impossible' theme.
11.November 6:
In the kitchenware aisle, practised the 'Madonna look' using
different size funnels.
12. November 18:
Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed, yelled' PICK
ME!' 'PICK ME!'
13. November 21:
When an announcement came over the loudspeaker, assumed the
foetal position and screamed 'NO! NO! It's those voices again.'
And; last, but not least:
14. November 23:
Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while; then
yelled, very loudly, 'There is no toilet paper in here.
SOMEONE ELSE
For any club it
is not uncommon to have a shortage of members to see events
through and the following might be of interest/use:
"We were
saddened to learn of the death of one of the committee's most
valuable members - Someone Else. His passing creates a vacancy
that will be hard to fill since Someone Else had been with the
Committee from the beginning and did far more than the normal
share of the work.
Whenever there
was a job to do, a helping hand needed or just an ear required
the words on everybody's lips were "Someone Else will do
it". Whenever there was need for volunteers everybody
assumed that "Someone Else will volunteer".
Someone Else was
a wonderful person, indeed sometimes appearing super-human. But
a person can only do so much. And, were the truth known,
everyone expected too much of Someone Else."
THINK ABOUT IT
