I recently returned from a month-long stint at my boyfriends house in England. This time, when visiting, I noticed that the cashiers at their supermarkets all sit-down on the job. I questioned my boyfriend, wondering if they had won some sort of labour law battle. Turns out, its always been that way. Then I thought back to my time behind the cash at a certain mega-grocer, and realized they were slave drivers! 8 hours on your feet, in spot, only allowed to take a drink on your break? It's absolutely ridiculous. We could learn a thing or two from the european way of doing things.
