bagger: Paper or Plastic?
me: I don't care. Just as long as it's all in one bag
bagger: Paper then. It's easier to carry.
me: Sounds good. Then I can let the fruit ripen in it when I get home.
bagger: Yeah, that's a good idea.
But what did I walk away with?
.78 lbs nectarine white
.85 lbs nectarines
.68 lbs pluots
(that's 2 pieces of each, for those of you who don't speak scale)
2 jars of Ragu Super Chunky Mushroom
and 6 (charged for 7) Dannon newly tiny yogurts (that I may feel compelled to complain about later)
...INSIDE A PAPER BAG WHICH WAS ITSELF INSIDE ANOTHER BAG !!
TWO BAGS !!
Yes, it was lovely and easy to carry, but I didn't have that far to go. One bag would have been sufficient; foolhardy or not, it was what I asked for.
Why do the baggers always think they know what's best for me? OR... Maybe they do! Maybe I should go back there and get relationship and career advice from the baggers who know best.
I think I will.
