You hear some pretty strange things while checking people out. If I ever held any hope for the future of mankind, well…
“Last night, the internet was down for over 30 minutes. I mean, the world could have ended and I would never have known about it.” – A 17 year old co-worker talking to another employee.
“I’m tired of being broke all the time.” She tweeted from her $2000 phone. – a twenty something wife talking to her friend while waiting in line to purchase $300 dollar shoes.
“The lines are always so long in this store and I refuse to use the self-checkout. I don’t work for this store. Next time, I’ll just order it from Amazon.” – A 60 year old woman talking to her husband.

My old mobile phone still works. It’s three years old. Now I keep being pressured at the shop to buy a new one. I said I’d keep it until it wouldn’t work any more. The young fellow said it wasn’t made to work for more that two years. And I’m supposed to be glad mine is still going strong.

I think it is the same way with most things you buy nowadays, they are only made to last a few years then they have to be replaced or updated.
