I have had the most disturbing experience at the Pick n Pay branch in Moreleta Park Pretoria last night. Usually I do not go to the shops at night... but in a panic, realising, while preparing dinner, that you are short of the essential key ingredient, changes things. The time was 19:40 when I rushed to the closest open super market (Being Pick n Pay) checkers was an extra 1km away and I figured I would play it safe. 19:46 I jumped out of my car, and as I approached the entrance I noticed the door was already closed, and there was a man standing on the other side letting people out as they have paid for their groceries. A quick glance at the trading hours confirmed that the shop only closes at 8PM.I knocked on the door asking to go in and the guy ignored me. There was also another guy standing outside waiting for the cigarettes he bought and his change. THIS is now happening outside, the customer is not even standing at the till and I don't know who he bribed to get the pack of cigarettes to him without entering the shop.! I knocked and knocked and showed the guy that it is only now 19:55 (already wasted 9 minutes) he once again looked at me and looked away.at this moment..(TBC)
