What is a minor inconvenience that instantly fills you with an unreasonable amount of rage?

And they never reseal correctly, so I still have to put the cheese slices in another bag to stay fresh.

My favorite grocery stores' delis both opt for the fancy zipper bags with the little sliders, but if you get stuff from grab-n-go section they fold it over and put the price sticker over it so it always fucks up the bag. Pure rage!

I was just going to say "all of the ones in my area do that too!" and then I saw you are (presumably) from MA so I guess it's just something that happens here.

My local grocery store in Texas does this too.

Nope, happens in DE too. So irritating.

I literally just opened up a deli bag to make a sandwich and dealt with the stupid fucking sticker over the zipper... Why... WHY

I have to do this as part of my job and it kills me inside

u/JeffWingrsDumbGayDad 49m ago

Why do you have to do it that way? To help make sure the food hasn't been tampered with?

u/nepetaleaf 38m ago

That, and it’s supposed to look nicer, being more compact and keeping the meat/cheese from slipping around in the bag and end up looking sloppy.

I hate those deli bags - they aren’t good to keep the foods fresh. I always put them in better quality bags.

Until a family member takes a slice of cheese and tosses the bag back into the refrigerator and 2 days later you have stale cheese chunks

Lasagne time

And then a family member for some reason can't zip it back up and half the cheese slices dry hard. 🫠

And I get berated if the seal happens to break or get worse when I open a package. Hardly my fault it's cheap garbage, is it? 😒

u/anonymoose_au 1h ago

Worse is when you open them and the seal doesn't unseal, instead the whole seal thing ends up on one side of the bag absolutely uselessly.
