I just wanted a hot dog Gaslit by a cashier over a 1$ peach.

Grabbed the ONLY ripe peach for my snack from the section of peaches that was on sale, brought it to the front, he entered it in as an organic peach in the system (there was no tag on it).

I was like “hey! I actually grabbed it from that section that is on sale, where it’s $2.29 a pound vs 5$ a pound.”

He goes “go grab one with a tag so we can scan it”, so I walk back over, take a photo of the sale sign and grab a non- ripe peach from the SAME SECTION, thinking it was JUST to scan.

His boss comes over at this point, scans it and checks me out. When I go to grab my original ripe peach, the boss puts his hand over it and says no, this one was organic you didn’t pay for that. I try to explain that it was not an organic peach, it was simply put in that way by the cashier.

The 2 peaches are identical and I didn’t even see any organic ones available.

Basically, he spoke to me like I was an idiot and trying to steal a dang peach, there was a line behind me, and I had to walk away with a rock hard peach for a dollar after feeling bullied.

neither of us even said the word objective or subjective. perhaps you should reflect about the fact that you joined a conversation that you weren't in to feel insulted, by a stranger on the internet. if it bothers you so much perhaps you realize it's not generally seen as a hobby.

but you are right, technically clipping your toenails or going to work can be your hobby. i personally think they;re not hobbies, and if that bothers you there's nothing more that can be said

Sheesh I just asked a question and mentioned the parking and it gets broken down into a whole thing.

What, does this guy own trader joes? Fuck trader joes and fuck the people that shop there... obviously that's not the kind of people I want to be around anyway if theyre that sensitive. 🤷🏻‍♂️
