    How insulting

    There I am scanning the chocolate shelf at the pound shop in crawley looking for an easter egg for Mrs Dodgy. Just had a meeting with a client and I am wearing my £700 suit with my best shirt and tie (and before you lot kick off, yes I was also wearing my best shoes with the brightest buckles )

    Some fat chav wanders up and asks me where the salt & vinegar crisps are

    Do I look like a f******g shop assistant??? What has happened to the class ystem?

    Shoes with buckles?

    He probably thought you were on your way home from picking up your latest ASBO.
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

        What's a shop assistant. I've been through Next, M&S, Asda, Netto, Debenhams....still haven't found one yet. Do they wear shiny shoes with buckles?

              I think I'd be lucky if all my clothes together cost more that £70 nevermind £700...

              I am one of nature's naturally scruffy people, so it's Primark for me or if I'm feeling flush, Matalan....

              I have to do this to counteract my significant other, who looks down on Miss Sixty and think's G-Star is for chavs...

                  Thanks, DA! You've made my weekend.

                  I hope your birthday makes you as happy as you have made me.
