Whimsical Wednesday # 124

Welcome back to Whimsical Wednesday! The day for you googled giggle that gets you over the hump that is Wednesday and sliding down into the weekend. Today's joke isn't googled, it's a cartoon I cut from a newspaper many years ago, and relevant because of what was in the news here recently. a large chain supermarket, one of the two supermarket giants, has recently been fined, again, for having out of date stock on its shelves. Again. not fresh produce, the items were pre-packaged sliced smallgoods in the dairy cabinets. Two weeks out of date. TWO WEEKS!! Their excuse was pretty pathetic, they'd had a long weekend.... Huh! Long weekends are three or four days at most, any stock that old should have been discovered before that weekend began. Not so whimsical after all.
