My mum and step-dad are away and left no bread or veg in the house, so I just had to brave the supermarket. I quickly remembered why I hate it! People everywhere, playing bumper cars with their trolleys - just knocking into people with seemingly no regard for them whatsoever. People stopping in the middle of the aisle for a chat so no-one could get around them. Even more difficult when you have communication difficulties and aren't sure at which point to butt in and ask them politely to move out of the way. People leaning over me and getting in my personal space, loitering behind me waiting for me to move out of the way putting me off my shopping. Kids screaming and parents yelling. Bright lighting, uncomfortable to be in for too long. People walking across the front of me without so much as a backward glance, let alone any kind of apology. People just don't look where they're going! I'm so glad that experience is over and done with! Surely I can't be the only one to hate supermarkets? Does anyone actually enjoy them?? Anyway rant over! I feel better now for getting that off my chest
