And I bought some junk food (I actually need it now) and withdrew some cash... and Virginia forced me to buy some Christmas cards. I knew I should have gone to a different checkout. And while I was talking to her, she told me that a customer called her some bad words because the lady couldn't read the EFTPOS machine. Although when I went outside, I nearly walked into Gary pushing along some trolleys and he told me that Alice would give Virginia holiday break only if she sold all the Christmas cards. So she's been persuading (and forcing) customers to buy Christmas cards and she's even gotten all the other checkout operators to help her.
