Just in case you didn't know I merchandise milk (yep the milkman). This
means that I travel between supermarket filling up fresh milk fridges.
At one of the supermarkets I was doing, there had been a rather large spill
of fresh orange juice (the stuff you'd buy from a chiller) due to a stack
that fell over (I had to go through this to get to my milk). While still
there, I put a small hole in a carton of milk so I go to a sink to empty it
out and pull out a bit of glass (which promptly cut me) from a drain.
The next supermarket was even more interesting. I watched a leaky air
conditioner drip on a couple of customers. After looking on the floor and
seeing no water I thought it was a one off. However after getting my first
load, I see a young (3-4 year old) girl slip over. Thinking they fall over
all the time I thought nothing of it. An older lady (probably around 30 or
so) then slipped on the watery patch left by the airconditioner and was
(understandably) grumpy about the whole affair.
Just before I finished filling the fridge of that supermarket I get a call
over the PA asking me to return to my car immediatly (via the numberplate #)
as someone had forgot to put their handbrake (aka emergency brake) on,
leaving a nice dent in my drivers door (so much so that I could not open the
door). Thankfully this was my bosses car.
After driving it back to my bosses place and picking up my car and having a
break, I head out to my last supermarket for the day, where pulling out a
pallet of milk, I find a bit of card that I stand and slip (landing on my
rear) which scared the people around me as the pallet was moving (I placed
my feet on the pallet so that it pushed me as opposed to running me over).
I managed to survive the day unscathed (other than the cut on my finger).
Just in case you were wondering this was easter Thursday (24th march).
