Dimwitted Tescoites

Question: How devoid of intelligence do you have to be in order to get a job at Tesco?

Answer: Very.
I recently bought a punnet of Egyptian Strawberries from the supermarket Behemoth and upon opening them I discovered, much to my horror, that one of them was furrier than a Seventies porn stars crotch. I'm not really one to complain in the real world (as opposed the virtual one where I'm getting better all the time), but I took the Strawberries back to Tesco and showed the lady at the customer service desk the overly furry nature of the Egyptian soft fruit. She seemed indifferent to my concerns but agreed to swap them for another fresher punnet. I then proceeded to buy some cigs which happens to be next to the customer service desk and overheard the woman tell one of her underlings "'Here Jason, reduce these strawberries will ya, one of them's manky".

Maybe it's just the way my brain works but surely the best place for them would be the bin?!

I'll leave up to you to decide.

Happy new Year by the way.
