I’ve a complaint I’d like to tell
My shopping trip went far from well
When I walked in I got no smile
Only acknowledged after a while
The things I wanted were not on the shelf
I had to bag my fruit myself
I went to the counter to get some fish
What I thought was a simple wish
When there I found I had to wait
Every minute made me irate
There was none of the bread I needed
The brown one that is triple seeded
There’s 20 types of milk in stock
But the one I want is not, no shock
I asked one staff for some yoghurt
They clearly were far from alert
And when I reached the busy tills
I found the staff lacked language skills
They barely talked, just gave a grunt
And gave my bags a careless shunt
The whole experience has been so bleak
See you all again next week
