Simple Truths
To all supermarkets and big stores using self-checkout:
I went shopping today, filled my cart, unloaded everything, scanned it all myself, and packed it back up. Then, at the exit, I was stopped and asked to show my receipt.
I had already done the cashier’s job myself. Why should I then stand in another line to prove I paid?
If you want customers to do the scanning, packing, and checkout, then trust them to leave the store when they have paid.
I’m not a trained cashier, and I’m certainly not being paid to work for your company. I don’t get a salary or a staff discount for doing it either.
Self-checkouts may save stores money, but they also mean fewer jobs for people who actually need them.
Bring back more cashiers. Give young people the chance to work.
WE DON’T GET PAID TO DO YOUR JOB.
Apparatly - around 80% of shoppers will not use these Self Checkout methods as most want to chat to the cashier and enjoy some kind of human interaction and for many elderly people living alone, it is the only chance in a day to actually talk with someone. That's why when I walk my dog I chat to all the women walking their dogs because many - quite simply - enjoy some kind of intercource with others as otherwise, they don't chat with anyone all day and besides, it makes jobs for people and as stated above, if the supermarket expects me to be a cashier, then I want a 10% discount on my shopping. I simply refuse to use them and if the store will not open up a normal cashier post - and demands I use the self service tills, then I am out of there and will dump my trolley of stuff and just leave. If they are not willing to open up a staffed aisle for those - who like me - refuse to dio it all myself, then I will shop elsewhere.
We do have a choice.
Q: The Bible describes homosexuality as a sin, yet many Christian churches today support same-sex marriage and LGBTQ rights-how far does this change align with the original teachings?
A: The Bible also fails to denounce chattal slavery. It also prohibits the consumption of shellfish and the wearing of mixed fabrics.'- and eatng pork or rabbit, - growing more than one crop in a field and it even details how a man should trim his beard - and how you should not work on a Sunday ( Holy day ) or be put to death - and all this is ignored - totally. Do you feel as strongly about these “sins,” or just the one you find “icky?”
Humans build morality based on outcomes, and we have for tens of thousands of years. This is observable reality. Moral codes are like living things in the way they change and adapt to promote better and better outcomes and minimize harm. This is why we don't keep slaves or stone people for shaving their beard.
Sinead O'Connor,
The acclaimed Irish singer passed away yesterday on 27 July 2023. She embraced Islam in October 2018, declaring her faith on The Late Late Show.
She said: I never thought I would join a religion, but I left Islam until last because I had so much prejudice about Islam. "But then when I started reading, and I read just chapter two alone of the Quran, and I realised, 'Oh my God, I am home'. "I had been a Muslim all my life and didn't realise it."
May Allah have mercy on her soul.
Cause of Death: A death certificate and coroner's ruling confirmed she died from an exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchial asthma, and a low-grade lower respiratory tract infection (natural causes).
Location: She was found unresponsive at her home in south London.
Background & Public Context: Her death followed the tragic suicide of her 17-year-old son, Shane, eighteen months earlier in January 2022.
Burial: She was laid to rest at Deansgrange Cemetery in Augst 2023.
Cain & Abel are approximately teenagers, and Cain kills Abel. God gets mad and sends him to the Land of Nod in Gen 4:8–16. But in Gen 4:14 Cain tells god that he is afraid people in Nod will kill him without a special protective mark on his head!? Who is going to kill him if there are only 3 people on Earth and his parents aren’t going there? Instead of God just saying this to Cain, he just says okie dokie and puts some silly mark on Cain’s head. Just saying, maybe God should have put that mark on Abel’s head, but that’s a different story.
So anyhoo, Cain trots off to Nod and suddenly finds a wife!? Was she another rib woman or WTF? If not, then who were her mother and father?
If she is from Adam and Eve then she is presumably even younger than him, and what did she do to get sent out there? Anyway, I guess Cain figures that if there’s grass in the infield, play ball. The plot thickens.
But it get’s crazier. He has a son and then decides that he needs to built A CITY.
Not a hamlet or a village, mind you, but a whole damn city. For whom exactly? His wife and son? And isn’t he supposed to be wandering, since that’s what Nwd means in Hebrew?u
In 2012, a Taliban militant went up to a police checkpost and did something that baffled everyone present. He wasn't there to attack or surrender, but to collect a reward.
He was a Taliban commander named Mohammad Ashan, wanted for plotting attacks on the American and Afghan forces. To catch him, NATO forces put up wanted posters of him, offering a $100 reward to anyone who helped catch him.
Mohammad Ashan What happened next is hard to believe.
Mohammad saw one of his posters and instead of panicking or hiding, he took the poster to a police checkpoint and demanded the reward. Baffled, the local police detained him and immediately contacted the US troops, who ran a biometric scan to confirm it was really him and they were not being pranked.
Once they were sure it really was him, they asked him why he had turned himself in. Mohammad replied that he wanted the reward. When the US forces explained that this was not how it worked, he was in disbelief that he would not be getting paid. Shortly after, he was arrested.
Mohammad’s story is a true testament to one of the dumbest things a criminal has ever done.
That is one dumb shit mother fucker....
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH !
Our lads are heading across the Channel because Westminster WON'T secure our borders. New footage shows English men on the French coast slashing migrant boats. They're doing the job the government refuses to do.
The videos are exploding online, and the public has had enough of the inaction. See the shocking footage of citizens taking matters into their own hands.
After years of innaction from france and the UK Government, where illegal migrants have more rights than us Brits - and where WE are jailed if we speak against, act against or even THINK against while these illegal migrants get some place to live, food and even a mobile phone... while our own homeless gets housed for Christmas and everyone thinks they have done a good job. Come the New year they are shoved back out onto the streets to make way for a migrant.
IT'S BOLLOCKS.
HOMICIDES IN THE USA
Black on white homicide is 81%
White on black is 2%
Cop on black is1%
Black on black is 97%.
The media only talks about the 1 and 2%.
You make, and take, from the news that which you wish to see and hear. You observe what you want and comment of things that affect you personally. If you don't like something, do not read it and move on but do not shy away from what IS going on in the world of which - you are a part. World news is so easy to find these days and differing opinions not hard to find. Having an opinion is vital and being a ' don't care' person helps no one. So open your mind - open your heart - open your awareness and ALWAYS be open to new ideas and always keep a sense of humour.
