    I know a person who gets their food delivered, and uses a barcode reader to scan the items in to their cupboards, so that they can put the items in to an Access database for inventory purposes.

    I guess it must be very important to know how many tins of baked beans and prunes one has at any one time.

    Just imagine the chaos and carnage if you ran out.

      Tesco keep a record of what I have ordered and so am surprised that they haven't started emailing me telling me I've probably run out of beans.

              Not really. In the first world many providers give you discount or even free rates when calling in-network.

                      Some of us do.

                      I'm on my feet all day, so I'll gladly take any chance to have a sit for a few minutes, regardless of which "toilet operation" I need to perform.
                      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
