Saturday sucked balls. Because no one else was going to do it, I got to clean up not 1, nor 2, but 3 seperate pools of vomit. So I put on some gloves, a dustmask, and got a mop and paper towels and went to clean up the mess, but that wasn't the clincher.
When I got to the cosmetics section (first pool), there was some woman standing in the vomit, doing her shopping. It took me three times telling her that she was standing in a healthy amount of after-digestion before she finally realized, made a face, and got out. Then I made my way to the toy aisle where the last two pools were. There were 5 kids playing with trains, and blocks, and puzzles in the vomit with their parents standing by the side, smiling at them. It only took one saying to get these parents to move their kids out of the way, but all I got were looks as if I were the one who vomited on the floor and then mopped it with their children. I seriously hope I get some sort of reward or break for doing this. :argh!:
I don't fucking get it. I see ANY puddle of objectionable looking liquid in a store somewhere and I avoid that aisle until it's taken care of.
Did they speak English?
LOL, consumer trance.
Suu, I don't see how non-English speakers are any more likely to fail to notice that they're standing in vomit. Why would that matter?
It could explain why the first woman needed to be told more than once.

I was more or less wondering if they understood him. Nothing to do with race, though you're probably right about the consumer trance.
"Shiny things to buy!" *splat*

True. Or she could be deaf or partially deaf.
I didn't consider that.
I don't get it. You work in a nightclub that sells groceries and children's toys :?
Why so much chuck?

I suppose it's also possible that Zenpeanut's voice was all phlegmy and garbled from eating too many peanuts.

That's the guys who bought over our native ASDA. Why so much vomitus? If I saw someone spewing in a fucking food aisle that motherfucker would get the living shit kicked out of them before using their face and inhale-reflex to clean the shit up :argh!:

What happens if it was a hot pregnant woman with morning sickness?
PROTIP: do NOT "Rule 34" the above post.
As an obvious point of conflict, I will reveal that I work at Goodwill and while there are a ton of people that don't speak a word of english, but the people I had to inform were quite clearly english speaking folks.
Bleeeeh. I don't know how you do it, Zp...I'm a wimp. I sympathy-retch when I'm around the stench of someone else's yak. Only my kids' vomit can I clean up without tossin' the ol' cookies. My mom says it's because when you have them as babies, you get over it, since they yak on you anyway.
Dunno, dude, that's hardcore. Wonder why those people are so fucked up. In any culture or language, fuckin' yak is yak. Bleeeeh.

Especially then. Pregnant women piss me off. :argh!:
Two things were able to get me to clean up the mess
1: Despite having a gigantic nose, I have almost no sense of smell
2: Since I'm aiming to be a nurse, I figure I'd better get used to cleaning up stuff that comes out of people.

Stabbing the culprits in random organs would have provided much better nursing practice.
Just sayin...
