I thought this was a fun read.

Could do with a little more variety though i reckon.

'Every little helps'!

Phil.
I don't know what i'm doing but i do it anyway.

Nice rhythm you have going with this - seems to be your trademark!
I like it - shows the world from a stock-boy's perspective.
Would be better with more of a story - but I suppose a video would be cool!
Nice one!
Paul

Thanks phil,thanks paul for the feedback,

been called a stock boy,i'd insert a cheesy grin but i can't
fathom it out,cheers,

Sorry Tom - didn't mean to offend - it's probably the wrong word in Canada too!
My bad!

This sounds like a Chas and Dave style song to me. It's fun. I would start it something like

All you customers, you're always seen
Round the pickled eggs and half-price beans
I keep the shelves stacked and the floor real clean
For you, the valued customer, you know what I mean

Just an idea, the 'valued customer' could be a cynical view.

Put this all to one side if not suitable, I don't mind.  :)
