I love how Zelda manages to perfectly encapsulate the "white woman who doesn't understand what slang is". She doesn't even try to pronounce anything in a casual way, she makes it super clear she's reading it off a script. The way she says "slinging the bling-bling to get that paper" sounds like she has no idea what she's actually saying but says it anyway.
I'm still not sure how they did that fidget spinner trick but I think Josiah may be keeping Bren in his basement and has a sock chute to send him food from time to time.
I grew up when that slang was popular and I still cringed every time she said anything. No one who wears casual business and does their makeup like that should ever speak in that manner.
The fact that the video from 1965 had better transitions, and was less crunchy and about the same quality as the one from 2003, really says a lot about our society.
U.S. infrastructure has been the oldest it has been since like the 40's. That means in both the private and public sector people are just not getting new equipment, fixing up the buildings, or making new training resources. Companies are generally not reinvesting into themselves and just buying back stocks, raising executive wages, and paying out shareholders. So basically the 3 least relevant things to a store's success. We do not have a single pallet jack that is not broken in some way at my (Kroger) store and exactly 2 electric jacks. 1 large one Older than me (22) and 1 small one that breaks literally once a week and started on fire 2 years ago after I used it. Oh and the baler is almost as old as the store itself so it is in its 50's at least (but it still works fine and never breaks so I am cool with it.)
I step into the in-trance And grab my groceries Slinging the bling bling on that paper As the cashier starts the cash register And I leave with my crushed bread
Warning: do not watch these videos before you go to sleep unless you want a dream about these three commentating on your life and laughing at all your terrible choices. *I ‘ M S P E A K I N G F R O M P E R S O N A L E X P E R I E N C E*
my ear legitimately started bleeding while zelda scott was talking. and i dont mean like "haha cringe talk" I Mean i felt legitimate liquids in my ear so i got a paper towel and wiped it and it was actual blood. no joke, she actually made my ears bleed. i have evidence.
as a customer i take offense to this, i'm the type of customer who gets annoyed when people leave shopping carts outside of the store and i'll go out of my way just to grab every single shopping cart and take them back inside and THEN i go inside to shop, and when i come back out and inevitably see even more shopping carts i once again go out of my own way to once more grab every single one of them and then i finally leave, and occasionally i find stuff where it's not meant to be and i will take it to the aisle it's supposed to be at lol
@@montymole2As a Customer and Retail worker I feel ALL of this. I will fix things that fellow customers messed up if I know where it goes. But it was a nightmare being front counter, and the only one who could clean tables, and being yelled at during rush by coworkers amd employees because I couldn't leave the register to clean the tables XD
I will have you know, The PS2 DVD remote is genuinely helpful when you’re watching movies since you don’t have to hit the triangle button to get access to the menu, And it’s stupidly funny to try to play games with it
Zelda Scott isn't cringe because of the specific words she uses, because there was a time where those words weren't cringe. What's cringe is the way she says it, the emphasis she forces on them, and how many she uses in a single interaction. Even in a time period where the words weren't so cringe, she would still feel cringey.
If any thing you could call it a southern thing. But im sure it have spread all across the USA by now since that local slang have been around over 40 years.
Yes. The only place that gets made fun of more than Az (and specifically Tucson for some reason) is Florida. And the political Georgia memes from this last cycle are fantastic.
"Can you check in the back?" was my least favourite question working retail (even if it was for 3 months in shitty management). Like, "Yeah, let me, the only cashier right now because our second is currently stocking the back shelves, go look through our back room that's full of unmarked rolltainers crammed next to each other for your tissues, all while leaving a line of 5 people." We were usually polite with "Sorry, our back room has a lot of inventory and we don't know which your item is on. Maybe come back later and we might have some stocked."
1:06 Speaking of ytp, there is actually a pretty funny ytp made from this training video called Eccentric Severe Tumors by DaThings (just wanted to mention!)
Seeing the check made me feel unfathomable rage because I used to work at a grocery store where the check machines took literally two minutes to run and it was literal hell.
“Isn’t that just a rectangle” Why do I laugh at things like that, I laugh at the most random, and usually dark things. So I wouldn’t be surprised if I would laugh at it within 2 years
12:40 Dude, I went to Family Dollar, I checked out like 4 jugs of water and a few other items, the cashier saw this, but only bagged one of the waters, and didn't even try to bag the rest. They had plenty of bags, they were just sh*t at their job. I didn't live too far, but I was and still am, pissed off about that
"Oh you don't have (cigarettes?), can you reccomend a different kind that tastes like (cigarettes?)" Me: "No. I don't smoke" "Can I buy half this carton of eggs?" Me: *Sighs...* No.
Customer who has qlready scanned half their order at a self check out: Hey can I use cash here? Me standing next to a sign that says all self checks can't take any cash:aneurysm
Training is expensive so they avoid it but have an abysmal retention rate because of it. But hiring a new person and training is more expensive, it is a trash feedback loop. But I just adore that a bagger's first day on the job at my store goes like this: "Hey person who has been here for 3 years, show the new guy how to do carts." Then they are just told to start bagging and get no additional training.
I work at the Arizona equivilent of Kroger (owned by Kroger.) Our training for what to do with a spill was literally just an image of a stick figure standing still and staring at the spill until we can call someone to clean it up.
As someone who currently works at an Ohio Kroger (in the Clicklist department), I can confirm that all of the accusations made in this video are accurate.
0:28 No, they call it a “Service Center” because it’s not a “Service Counter” They don’t call it a “Service Counter” because it does not count services.
I hate how they push onto the cashier's to move fast,not at all putting in fact that the real thing slowing your line down is customers who don't have their shit together or will start the question game over stuff you've never heard or cared about.
