15 mile round trip, lady without water for 45mins extra, late for
second job.

From now on I shall completely unpack anything I buy before I leave
the store.

Always....

I ask them to do it at the checkout before paying and check the
parts against the list inside the box.

The cost for you to go away, waste an hour and return is a great
deal more than 2-3minutes of checkout operator time....


I was at the back of a bloke who was about to do that...I told him
there's a floor assistant ask her to check the parts...this is a
payment checkout not a item chechout.

And he did.


That's up to him. If the department managers did their jobs
properly and ensured the integrity of packaging, this wouldn't arise.
As it is, unless the customer insists, it won't get done. There is no
better place than the checkout to encourage the retailer to do things
properly.


How can they check a package thats sealed in cling film? more to the point
if the package has not got a seal on the box but the rest have then this is
down to the customer to pick one that has or ask for an unopened item.
