Title: blocking the aisles
Post by: Gerianne on October 30, 2015, 08:56:28 am
it's frustrating when people leave stuff in the aisles in stores.
good judgement on the stores' side to make the aisles wide and to have their employees keep a watch on that happening..
I don't go shopping in stores anymore. ....not since I got knocked down [and I use a walker]

My sister and I were at Walmart a few weeks ago and a whole display had fallen over completing blocking the aisle. But what frustrates me more is when people will not let you through. I was at Kroger and said excuse me to a lady at least 3 times and she just gave me a dirty look. People can be very rude sometimes.

It's annoying! Some people...are so inconsiderate and they only think about their needs instead of helping others. It's a shame. :(

Some stores have wide isles and some have short isles. It is rude that someone would be blocking an isle by putting stuff in your path or being straight in the middle of the isle itself

Try shopping when the stores are less crowded.

It's annoying to have a store with narrow isles. For god's sake, make them wider because some people feel the need to block the whole walkway.

It is very annoying and some people are very  rude, if I knock over something, I at least try and move out of the aisles, but the worst are those talking on their cell phones and not caring that they are blocking everyone.

Losing YOU as a customer is not really a loss.  There are plenty of others who shop there.  Not being smart but I swear I get so sick of hearing that.  OH you have lost a customer.  Big deal.  They will get 10 new ones tomorrow.  And it is not the store's fault that customers are rude.  People in general are rude.  Employees are rude, customers are rude, it is just people in general.

I was at Walmart this morning and the lady in the department I was walking thru smarted off to a woman who was standing near me.  Then I made the mistake of asking her a question and she smarted off to me as well.  I choose not to let her ruin my day.

Some people are just down right rude, and they seem to think they are the only ones who count in a store. After saying excuse me but I would like to get through a couple of times, I will push my cart right up and try to pass.  Then I get a dirty look and I just say excuse me again but I though I had enough room to squeeze around you while you are blocking the aisle.  I know it is not nice but come on either push your carts over to the shelving better and leave the aisle clear or go some where else to talk.

People don't seem to bother me, I go when I'm not in a hurry most of the time.

In this line of thought are people that seem to naturally gravitate to the smallest pathways, hang around at the top of escalators/inside doorways, or are looking at the ceiling as they wheel around grocery stores. I guarantee that if there is a display in the middle of an aisle, someone will park their cart right next to it so that no one can get through. I have my children on the lookout for it.  I have thought about taking pictures and starting a website devoted to the lack of brain cells in today's society-featuring shopping cart placement, inopportune gathering places, and those that walk around with their eyes cast skyward. I think that it goes without saying that there could be a whole site devoted to people that think they can talk on their cell phones and function.

It is frustrating when people stand in the middle of the isle and you stand right behind them and finally have to say excuse me can I get through for them to realize they are standing in the middle of the isle, what is wrong with some people.

I love to go to Dollar General but they are the worst store to try and get down the aisles. Always pallets sitting everywhere.

There's a grocery store in town (the only one) that the seniors shop at because they can walk to the store and don't need to find a way to the out of town stores. This is a smaller grocery store with aisles wide enough for 2 carts BUT the store blocks the aisles with "specials" every couple feet so it's impossible to have two carts in the same aisle at the same time without weaving in an out of the specials.

Then there are the younger people who are always in a rush and almost push their way past you because they need their soda and snacks, and the young mothers who haven't seen each other in a couple days who stop in the middle of the aisle to chat and never move even if you say "excuse me" with a smile on your face, just give you a dirty look.

Pure ignorance. I don't shop that store much any more. i can still get out of town to the larger stores with the wide aisles and nothing extra in them, and more selection anyway without running out.
