Just stopped at the store to get last minute purchases on my list. The cashier was trying to teach me when to use my coupons and made the checkout more complicated than it had to be. She rang up a few things and had to redo my transactions. Everyone in the line were giving me dirty looks because of the cashier's mistake and she didn't even apologize. Made for a bad start for my afternoon.
