And so when we worthless employees try and get a little raise to offset these rising prices, they laugh in our faces, and say "But the government says that inflation is only 2%!"
So the final consumer, me and you, gets screwed, and we get it good and hard in the checkout line, and the cashier is ringing up our purchases by scanning the bar code across the scanner, all day long, pick it up and scan it, pick it up and scan it, and so it is a real crappy job, and she is plenty angry about the rotten job and the lousy pay which does not even keep up with inflation and her husband's Social Security check doesn't seem to go as far, and then she gets all testy with me like it is MY fault or something...
