Never had that happen to me.

By the way, where are the teabags?

and everyone will have to keep food in a pantry

which is where you keep eggs

Surely you should keep your eggs in an eggstry and your pants in a pantry.

I wonder how many of us are thinking that the topic header should read "Apparently I look like I should work in the Co-op" ?

@Paul_C You honestly can't expect these immigrants to speak our language *that* fluently!

Would you say "Apparently I look like I should work in the B&Q".

If I wanted to sound like an eastern bloc immigrant, yes.

Depends entirely on your philosophical viewpoint

Indeed.

If your philosophical viewpoint is correct, you think the egg came first. Laid, of course, by a proto-chicken.

If, on the other hand, your philosophical viewpoint is incorrect, it doesn't matter what you think.

no, nor the Tesco or the Sainsbury's - but as it's always been known to me as "going to the Co-op" like "going to the Post Office" (because it used to be The Co-operative Society and the supermarket shop fronts now say The Co-operative  Food) I'll always say "the Co-op"

They wanted more shelf stacking and less yelling 'fuck off, you cunts' so it was mutually decided that we would both pursue different options.

Now you mention it I read somewhere that they were re-branding, but the one I bought some comestibles in this morning still said The Co-operative Food.

FX_Munkee

So they've just spent a boatload of cash rebranding to the branding they used to have?
I feel like such a mug, working for a living.
