We see them every week of our lives. We hand over billions of pounds of our hard-earned money to them every year. They handle the food we eat‚ the products we use to keep ourselves clean and many more intimate items that we are slightly embarrassed about buying. You probably know their first names if you bother to read their badges. They are the checkout staff at your local supermarket. And this is their untold story.
Written by a British journalist who has gone under cover in a leading supermarket chain this is an entertaining and gossipy insight into life as a check out girl. Having originally planned to write an expose on supermarkets chain and their policies‚ THE CHECKOUT GIRL has actually become a social commentary which explores the hidden world of the apparently anonymous helpers who are part of our everyday lives.
The author has spent 6 months working undercover at a major supermarket chain and in that time has seen pretty much everything there is to see. From the boring and mundane to the ridiculous and absurd. All human life is here.
At the moment the name of the author and the supermarket chain are being kept anonymous and will remain so until she finishes working in May.
