Great to see it' "network Error" "Network Error" TC Error AGAIN!
anyway..
Strange experience at the Frog Superstoe today.
They recently opened a new Frog Hypermarket near us, but sadly, it appears they did not do their little Froggy maths correctly as they seem to be short of about 5000 customers a day!
Hence, you go in the morning... no fresh bread... the freezer shelves get emptied..they don't buy any new or restock..it'll be closed in 6 months to a year!
Anyway, We go and stock up a bit for the forthcoming alchololic binge holiday, buying the usual only a bit more to tide us over.
Frogafour sells these little tins of sardines and mackerel at 8.5 baht a tin, in fact they must have ordered enough to feed the whole of Thailand for the next 100 years, the fucking things are piled up everywhere.
Anyway, as usual (being a regular) I stick ten tins in the trolley, along with a few boxes of Chang. (Last week they were shrink wrapping sardines in 10 packs...so I bought a few to feed the cats)
Now, trolley fully laden, like a Spanish Galleon, we get to the checkout.
The dopey headed fucker says "Only 3 cans of sardines per person"???
So I try the smart arse routine...well there is me...there is my wife and, there is my son. Nope she's not buying it! So, she puts aside 7 tins next to the till.
I'm getting a bit pissed off by now, almost to the point where I let here ring everything through then just tell her to go fuck and walk away..let em put it all back or in the bin!
Anyway, she stops half way through and starts babbling about the BEER!!
She reckons you cannot have beer on the same bill as the food...FFS!
So, halfway through she cashes me up with a receipt for a couple of thousand for half the food we bought. OK..I go along.
Now she starts ringing the rest of the food through, oh, and now the fucker rings in the 7 cans of sardines, of which we are "only allowed 3", I asked her, why don't you ring in the booze on a separate tab now, and that's the end of it.."Leo gohn" is the reply.
Then after ringing all the food through, she rings the beers on the same fucking tab!!! WTF!!!
Is there any logic to the way these people work...is it a Frog Virus or Disease that cripples their mind?
Can you imagine the stupid logic that has a shop "overladen" and has been for the past 3 months with tins of sardines, that then restricts the customers to 3 fucking tins...they won't clear their stock by the next fucking Ice Age at this rate, but allow the locals to come and purchase that damn palm oil without any restriction. The fucking stuff is a health hazard at the best of times..
By the look on some of the pickups leaving Frogefourre, heavy laden with oil, if there was to be a crash, it would make the Exxon Valdize look like a drop in the ocean...I can see the RSPCA, Greenpeace and the likes, fishing "distressed Thais" out of the oil pollution, and studiouslly cleaning their broken wings and hair with detergents, they would need special centres set up, and probably require more volunteers than the Tsunami, just to clean the roads!
Frogeffour needs to really rethink its business plan, if it doesn't I bet the San Patong Branch is gone before Loi Kratong!
