What an exaggerating miserable old farp! Ugh it is people like this who make working in retail horrible. Look at his well trained face at being miserable.

He has turned a mild inconvenience to a way overblown kerfuffle. His story has several questions as it doesn't make sense. Which as Judge Judy would say "If a story doesn't make sense, then it is probably not true"

In this blokes world, one Sunday morning he managed to find an open butchers, bought mince and was at Lidl at 10am on a hot 25c day.

The problems are glaring with this blokes story. If indeed he did have mince at that time in the morning, why did he get it first?

He then waits in the alleged heat in his car for Lidl to open, Why? Go home or drive into the shade, be productive in the predicament you are in.

How long was he in Lidl for the mince to spoil? He must have been in there for hours (even long queues wouldn't have kept him in there that long)

He mentions he saw the sign saying (opening at 11am) so he knew there was little chance of it opening before then but he still halls Lidl Head Office.

He was offered vouchers as good will gesture but still moans?

The truth is, he is an Estate Agent and doesn't like the feeling of being ripped off or losing out (ironic) so now he is making a mountain out of a molehill.

If this mince even exists, the sign, other people, and the contempt he talks about. He has no proof of any of it. He exaggerates the temperature of the day saying it was 25c when the daily average was 19c and unlikely to be that high at that time of the morning.

I am also not sure he had proof he stayed in his car, and if he did, why? He had many options but chose to sit and stew.

MY THEORY OF WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY

9-9:30 am
He buys mince (Sunday morning I assume it is not fresh)
10pm
Gets to Lidl and sees the notice, and moans to a few other people also waiting. As he is a cantankerous so-and-so he gets back to his car and waits for Lidl to open to vent his anger at the staff inside.

12pm
at the conveyor belt in the queue he moans all the way, trying to get other customers to be on his side (at least one will be as there always is) he then moans to the sales assistant or calls for the Manager to complain.

The problem is it is probably not a store manager as it is Sunday and likely to be a Duty Manager or supervisor who has been there since 8am and having this miserable time wasting whine merchant is the last thing the DM or Sup needs and just nods along to the endless circle of moan and says sorry... only for him to go on about it again and again before mentioning he has already called Head Office maybe uttering the sneer inducing "customer is always right" and other bits of law he thinks he knows.

1pm
After getting home after a good afternoons moan, whinge and other cantankerous behaviour. His wife (or whoever) who has had to listen to him gets fed up, tells him to SHUT UP! and throws the mince at him... the mince has now been spoiled and his morning wasted.

5pm 7 June 2015 to present day
Still incensed with the events on that day (his file called cantankerous complaints helps him remember) he has maintained his personal vendetta against Lidl.

If he WINS his case he will most certainly go back to that Lidl store to gloat. So there are many reasons I want the story to be thrown out.

News source was from The Mirror 10/2/16 as was pictures used on the thumbnail. I was reviewing this news and using it to give an opinion.
