Well how very rude. Strange what having a jolly rant about your job can lead to people assuming about you, isn't it.

1. I was a student, very briefly, many years ago. I was not wealthy enough to carry on with it. I have lovely, spot-free skin, but I am a cunt ;-)

2. Passing things over the checkout means I can't see what I'm doing. I'm fine with social interaction but not fine with people getting in my way. And if YOU got in the way of doing my job, I'd tell you so. And if you kicked off, I'd simply not serve you! Good Day.

3. There's never any forgeries on my watch because I am so very anal about it!

4. Live and let live. You don't want my shrapnel, I don't want yours.
Plenty of charity boxes if you can't be bothered with it. Doesn't stop it holding the queue up.

5. Yep, I'm the till muppet. And it's my job to give customers what they need. What some people need is to get a fucking clue. I assist with this when required.

6. Again we're working on assumptions about my personality here. Which I'm afraid are all false save for the one we mentioned earlier.

7. I used to. Working in retail soon gets rid of those bad habits.

8. Actually I DO pick my own! I know I'm part of the system but then, I just accept it and get on with it instead of going on moral crusades every five fucking seconds about the environment.

Failed pharmacist? I never WAS a pharmacist. Healthcare assistant (posh till muppet!), which isn't nearly as cool. Right now, till muppet is about as hard as I need to work to pay for my lifestyle. Given that I outright own my house, have no debt and very small bills. I've never been fucking happier! Except when I have bad days triggering my initial rant. Which if you didn't like, you didn't have to read.

Anyway, what is it you do for a living?
