3. go and drop some produce on the ground and go tell the associate to clean it up and after they are done wait five more minutes and drop different produce on the ground in another place and do the same as in another place this might cause the associate not to come back after three attempts.
4. go and ask the associate some questions that has nothing to do with produce like where is the milk? then get serious with the associate and tell them why isn't this product is not in produce? why do I have to go across the the store to find this when it should be in produce? this will confuse the associate and will point fingers in every direction not knowing what or where this product is.
5.go get in those motorized carts and go slow as you can in produce and start bumping into things. go up to the associate and ask in a weary whisper while your head is down what you want. if they ask you to repeat the question then tell are you deaf or something!! I said go get those potatoes that I can't reach!! why is this a hard question? the associate will be little red in the face and might throw you the potato while instead of handing it to you.
I can't think of the other five and I will think of them later but I know produce associates are utterly useless in these situations.
