a) Eggs come in 6 or a dozen. Fridge has little shelf with holes for 8 eggs.

b) I always feel as if a supermarket employee is gonna get really offended, and start telling me I can't open the eggs to check they're not cracked. They won't, because they honestly couldn't give a fuck, they're just trying to get through their shift. But the feeling is there. Egganoia makes me feel as if the security cameras are zooming in, though, making sure I don't pocket an egg. "Hey, we saw video of a woman in a supermarket in Russia shoving a raw chicken up her hoo-hah! It's not impossible you might wanna pocket an egg, fella!"

Supermarket employee doesn't care. Supermarket employee also checks the eggs before buying them!

They might do spot checks when taking delivery but I doubt they have the time to check each carton.

Or did you mean at checkout before YOU buy the eggs? If so, that's not why they open each carton. They're checking to see if you hid something in there.

I think they mean when the employee is shopping for themself, they check their own eggs.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes. I'm talking about when the employee is buying their own groceries they check the eggs!

Oh, I see. Yes, probably. As any sensible person would.
