Fuck my life. You'd think these people would understand
I could become a store manager but that requires working 6 days a week, and most of those would be 6AM-5PM days. And I hate morning shifts. I don't want to do that, and I don't like being in charge of people. But on the other hand it's not like there's any other career I can follow. I've told my boss that I lost interest, but I don't know if that's the right choice.
going to post a few more feels since I feel like venting

>hear this shit at every job I've had
When I was at my first part-time job in school, I just agreed them them. Now I'm 21 and I explain to them that we all have bills to pay, your kids are not my responsibility, and if you can afford to support your kids on your contracted hours then you should find another job.
>>29611041
In my (somewhat limited) experience, the ones complaining about their lack of hours are the ones who constantly call out and show up late + leave early.
>omg why did shekelstein only schedule me 3 days next week?! totes unfair
I offer them one or two of my shifts because I sure as hell don't want to be there.
>uhhhh I'll think about it
And then they're calling out for one of those 3 days they were scheduled because they're deathly ill again or another grandmother just dropped dead.

Hey I posted that exact same story on another retailcuck thread. That's my post. Its ok though OP you can use it.
>>29611250
I've left that job now
>>29610992
I'm a store manager who only works 4 days a week. Used to be 5 but the owner asked if I could do the job in 4 and have only junior staff work the other 3 days. Was pissed at first but he agreed to raise my regular wage to cover it. It still comes out a fair bit less than I used to get but I get 3 days off a week which has turned out to be a blessing for my sanity.
>tfw have to work with that one coworker you hate
If I could kill him and get away with it I would
>>29611554
>tfw found out coworker is trying to get me fired
>>29611567
What's he been saying?
>>29611554
I had that. Guy used to drive me fucking insane but he quit.
>>29611041
Haha, if they were better at their jobs they'd be awarded the hours. Tell them to step up their game.
>>29611588
He says I'm useless basically so it's not like he can outright get me fired. He can trash talkme to the managers though.

Forgot to mention, I had a friend who had worked under newnormie at a bar/grill place, and said it sucked fucking balls. He did the same shit there that he did with us. Small world, though
>begin full on shouting at newnormie manager, don't even care anymore
"What the fuck would you know about teamwork? You've been on fries for about 8 minutes and it's the most work I've seen you do since you started."
Him: "I do more work than gm"
"Bullshit, gm actually had management experience, that's why he's always in the office. You just sit in there on your phone. I don't think you've ever managed anything in your fucking life."
Him: "You can call my references, man."
"I will, and I'm sure they'll tell me the same thing my friend did. That you fucking sucked."
>toss down tongs and walk out for a cigarette
>come back in, given a stern talking to by gm and pastor for my attitude
>calmly explain to them that I was in the right, and that they can fuck off if they disagree

I've developed a sixth sense for detecting shop lifters. You can tell who intends to steal just by how they act when you greet them, what aisles they visit and in what order, etc. But I've never had the courage to do anything about it. What should I do when I know someone is stealing?
The official policy is to approach them without getting too close, and talk about the item they're trying to steal. Like asking if they want a basket for x-item or suggesting other things that go with it. But when I know someone is stealing my heart starts beating super fast and I start shaking and I can't make myself even do that.
>>29611636
In my experience working in retail, it's always the useless cunts who think they're amazing that try and shittalk about other colleagues. Probably a combination of asslicking the manager while trying to steer their view onto other people so nobody notices how fucking shit they are at their jobs.
>>29611782

>>old fat chain smokers needing help putting their 12 cases of Coke and Dr Pepper into their car
I never understood this. If you can't put it into your car on your own, how do you expect to get it into your house? If they have someone to help get it inside the house, why isn't that person helping shop for food?

And then you say that the manager wants me to do something and I don't believe you because your fucking dumb-ass has cried wolf so many times with your fucking shit-tier jokes, and then the manager comes to me asking me why I didn't do that thing.

Not >>29612757 but I understand why no one goes to the store to help.
At least in my case, my mom goes early in the morning on a weekend to the store and neither me, my brother nor my dad want to get up and go out to the store. However, when my mom gets home we're all there to help carry and put away groceries. My mom doesn't ask for help though because she's not a bitch.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
If my schedule says I'm supposed to leave at X time, but my boss turns around and says I can't leave until everything is complete, what's the rule on that? I've looked through the handbook and SOP manual and it doesn't really say anything on this.
>>29613912
But I'd still be punished for working 9 hours instead of 8.
>>29613925
The standard phrase is "I can't stay, i need to drive my granne to the hospital/feed my binturong/get to there liquorstore before it closes". Basically, have a legit excuse if you don't want to stay.
>>29613925
>>29613980
some jobs you stay until the work is done
if you leave early you may be screwing your coworkers / boss
>>29613914
Happened to us once. Lucky it was late at night so no one was around when it was shot.
>>29614042
Is it better to be screwed yourself then by your manager/co-workers?
Of course, if it's a restaurant or something where you're expected to stay until everythings washy its one thing, but if your retailmanager comes up an hour before you close and says you need to stay and finish unpacking and stocking he can shove it.
>>29614099
you clean & stock at night before leaving so the store is prepared to open morning
if you don't clean & stock before leaving you fuck the opener's shit up senpai
then he cleans & stocks before HE leaves so the mid / late shift doesn't come on to find a mess
i mean you can skip it if you want but don't expect to keep your job long if you do
>>29614099
Depends on the workplace as well. At my job any overtime is paid at time and a half so I really wouldn't mind.

>manager refuses to fix the sluice out to the loading dock

I mean sure, when it's just a small brown bird that's terrified you just have to wait for nightfall to shoot it, but when a giga-magpie flies in and dive-attacks customers, shit everywhere and picks through a hundred bucks worth of seeds and bread in an hour, the hunters can't come fast enough.

We also had a woman develop nude photos of an obese black woman on Christmas Eve for her daughter, and had someone put a screenshot of their IMVU avatar on a $50 canvas. Photo lab was the most interesting job I ever had.
I might even have a picture of that canvas lying around. Let me check.

Sounds like a shit system. Better to ask the morning staff if they can start earlier, or if they want to work longer.Or tell him to pick up the pace. Or manage the schedule better.

I worked at Kroger for a while. At some point I just stopped caring and acted stoic around people period. The few people who weren't shitty or annoying got good service. Currently working at a Pizza Hut as a dishwasher. While the pay isn't anything to talk of, I don't have to talk to customers and I have some acknowledgment from management on my work.Seriously, how the fuck can you not wash dishes correctly? And why am I the only one that knows how to do so? Apparently they were staying overnight washing dishes and I get them out around thirty minutes or so after closing.

Does anybody know anything about patent agents? It sounds like a pretty comfy gig. You need a bachelors in science, and then need to pass this arduous legal exam (like the BAR I think, but not exactly)

Are fast food jobs really as bad as people make them out to be? Everyone I've spoken to has said they'd rather kill themselves than work at bking or mcds.
Worked 10 years in restaurants
First job, bunch of lazy fucks restaurant closed down
Second job summer job, was good worked in the pool area of a hotel, lots of forefinger in bikinis (i miss that job)
Third job, worked at a successful italian resturant for 3 years, everyone looked for a way to step on other co-workers, everyone kissed the bosses ass to get ahead instead of doing a good job, always kept to myself because gossip ran rampant in this job. Everyone assumed i was a shy loser, reality i didnt want my dirty laundry in everyone's ears, it was backstab after backstab with everyone to just have a comfy position where they didn't have to work much. Developed a nasty drinking habit, quit job
4th job hotel where i had to work with the guest, mostly breakfast, alot of faggots asking dumb questions and being assholes about omeletes and holding up the buffet lines
5th job hotel again, work by myself, hardly have to interact with guest or co-workers. Just do my job in my little cave islolated from the rest of the hotel
>>29615903
>forefingers
Meant foreigners
Thanks spell check
It happened today, for the first time ever.
The barcode wouldn't scan, and the customer said "LOL MUS B FREE DEN"
I thought this was a meme. Nobody could be that terrible. I thought. That inane.

I work in a call center for lost and found pets with microchips. It's extremely easy work so it's boring and depressing. Generally people are nice but a lot of them are annoying and stupid. I've noticed people don't listen well on the phone, they just kind of say "ok" unless you ask a direct question. Also i hate that it's always loud. Even if you're not talking to someone, you're surrounded by people who are or your desk neighbor will type stupidly and smash the keyboard

Work at a "resort", same thing here. Its high school all over again. Every guy is trying to one up each other, every guy is trying to fuck all the girls that work here (they're in relationships outside of work but I know for a fact they fuck around with my co workers), then there is just me. The guy that just shows up to work and then clock out and get the hell out. Not trying to gossip, don't give a fuck what my co workers do outside of work, just trying to make some money and move on with my life. Foreign girls by the pool in bikinis? That shit never gets old man, there's a new set of them every week.

Ugh its terrible.
At Italian restaurant the boss managed to open a new one across state he wanted to put trainers on it. Put a lazy nigger who kisses his ass and is slower than most of us but always does a fast performance when the boss is around.
He got sent to do training and got paid well for it.
Cheated on his baby momma
Got a sexual harassment suit for hounding a waitress
Got into alot of shit for both those things
For some reason the baby momma stayed with him
Knocked her up

Lots of repetition and people too fucking lazy to do things with easier, time-saving self service options. Or complaining about their bill.

there's so much to take in. i'm 100% a hands-on learner so I feel a bit flooded with specifics sometimes.
there's so many fucking abbreviations n logs n checklists
but honestly, I may be alone here in saying I actually don't mind retail. I like being helpful and I've always had good colleagues (besides final 2 months at first retail job)

Not going out of my way to save my kike boss some shekels
I'm a bagger/backup cashier/ delivery driver for a grocery store
My favorite type of people is the type that come in on a holiday weekend and get mad that they can't get in and get out.
It's a fucking grocery store
>customer comes in trying to scam me with price match/coupon bullshit
>for example, Trying to tell me a $130 cook set is on the walmart website for $15
>pull up the website and tell them no it's not
>"YOU ALL ALWAYS GIVE ME SHIT FOR THIS I'M GOING TO ANOTHER STORE"
>Bye.
>customer wonders where a food item is
>Show her the spot, unfortunately we're all out
>"This is unbelievable, I was here yesterday as well and you didn't have it then either!"
>Explain to her that frozen goods aren't delivered as often as dry goods, and that we didn't recieve any frozen wares yesterday and todays delivery hasn't arrived yet
>She could have asked when we'd recieve more yesterday
>She is piss
>Angrily demands that I pricematch the other kind we have (50% more expensive)
>I don't have any problem pricematching stuff if it's on sale and we're supposed to have 'em if I'm the one offering to do it, but if some random item is out of stock I won't.
>She gets furious and storms off, muttering about how she'll go shop somewhere else and what shitty service we have
>Realize that she's such a jew that she'll come back since were the cheapest store in town
Jesus, middleaged women are a pain in the ass.
>work in pub
>pour the spillage in drip trays under the taps into pint glasses, filling each glass about half way

Sometimes clients asked me If I want to live lots of years, because I am so slowly doing my work. I used to reply in that cases, invite me to your burial.
>>29615672
Love that feeling
Cutting my hours then sending me home early?
Get fucked
>work at a UPS store
Lady is short on cash for her shipment, and bribes me with granola bars and not sex FML

Middle aged white women are worse than niggers.
All the black people i've seen at the grocery store I work at are extremely friendly and laid back when it comes to their orders.
It's always old white women or rich white people alltogether that get the most demanding
>work at a coffee shop
>all of the male regulars flirt with the young women that work there
>they literally come in after 5 pm and start flirting for about 30 min
>they leave 5 cent tips
>they're annoying
>every time i see them at the till i make my Chad coworker go serve them because i don't want to hear them rant about how hot my Stacey coworker is
I thought working in fastfood would make me feel like pic related. Instead it makes me feel even more pathetic desu.
>>29617937
Im polite and treat staff like human beings but i still fear that something like this will happen to me. I also almost always order sandwiches and burgers without the vegetables and a little extra sauce. How likely do you think it is for someone to tamper with my food?
>>29617664
I treat everyone like shit, especially women
>>29618233
I've only had one black woman be a terrible customer.
>told me to price match shit for ridiculous prices
>told her I won't do that
>Well then let me talk to your manager. The customer is always right
>mfw the manager actually tells me to give her the bullshit 70% off for the items we discussed
>customer continues to tell me to price match bullshit
>fuck it not my money I just want you out of my face
>>29618245
If you're that worried about it, stick to home cooking. Never can be 100% sure about it unless you personally know the people working on it and get along with them.
>>29618245
>I also almost always order sandwiches and burgers without the vegetables and a little extra sauce
That's nothing, don't worry.
It's people that come in and complain that we don't do it like some other restaurant does it, or not smiling enough at them, etc.
Those people get an extra helping of protein of you catch my drift
>>29618245
dude you're ordering food without stuff. less stuff is less effort for the chef, nearly always. they probs love you
>>29613564
Justice boner
>customers/coworkers trying to share with me whatever bullshit I'm not involved in
>just say "yeah" and go on with my work
I do not care about your day. I have no control over what happens in the store.
>>29616745
Can't you refuse service to him the next time?
>>29610929
Dude fuck that you're entitled to 30 minutes a day and get fucked to any cunt who wants that off of you. You say:
"Sorry mate I'm just on me break"
And if they don't understand that you've been working all day and will be working again all day after this brief moment of rest then they're a fucking base grade cunt who can absolutely get fucked.
Don't take that shit anon.
>those handful of customers that come in 5 minutes before we close the store because they want to be the last one out so they can talk with the cashier for 10 minutes
It's both sad and infuriating at the same time. Especially the one guy that's so fucking obnoxious and impossible to talk to that it's clear he's never even had a friend to practice conversation with like a normal person
On the other hand, I heard the staff in the other big store in town have been explicitly forbidden to be nice to him, since he'll start stalking them, waiting outside when they close the store and follow them home in his car. Yeah, fuck that guy.
I will change garbages, wipe the staff and customer toilets/washrooms, go to the bathroom myselfI'm a girl by the way, cough, pick my nose, sneeze, etc and then touch the rims of coffee cups/lids, make sandwiches while only wearing one glove, etc etc.
I don't think I've washed my hands once at work.
I just hate my job.
>>29618240
How do the girls react? Or is the chad that works there fucking them all in front of you?
>>29610210
Does it make you sad that you're looking into your future?
Are you me?
>Work at Kroger gas station
>Customers are pants on head retarded and all say the same dumb shit
>Have to know everything about stupid fuel point system
>NOTHING about it covered in training
At least I can text and shit on the clock
>>29618418
You're a fucking disgrace.
I'll tell you guys this, having ultra chad co workers was the final nail in the coffin as far as my sanity goes. Seeing how our female co workers and female customers treat them, and how they treat me took the last hope I had for my life and stepped on it. At first I dealt with it by coming home and just drinking my sorrows away every night, now I've come to just accept it for what it is. Nature is a cruel bitch, nothing I can do about it. I have stories if anyone is interested.
>>29618490
Unload, anon, unload.
>>29618425
Two of the Staceys I work with are spics and their english is really bad, they just talk amongst themselves and giggle but feel really awkward.
My boss Stacey remains nice to the regulars that creepily flirt with her but will talk shit about them to us when they leave, she's pretty based.
Fat Stacey gets hit on sometimes and she'll obnoxiously tell me about it and I have to pretend to be concerned. I mean I can understand because it does seem very annoying after a while.
No the Chad that works there is like an 18 year old and I think he has autism or something, or he's just really shy. All of my female coworkers are 25+.I work the afternoon shift, thank god.
>>29618472
When I change the garbages I'll get in there really really really deep, wipe it all with a cloth no gloves. Sometimes it's disgusting and I'll wipe my hands down with a wet cloth, but I never bother washing themuntil I get home and shower completely.Then I go back to pouring coffee and grabbing lids and making smoothies, and grabbing muffins with my bare hands.
>>29613445
>*raises paw*
gargle battery acid faggot
>One minute before closing time
>Customer walks in and wants to dine in
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE FUCK YOU! IM TRYING TO GO HOME!
>>29618553
Protip: Tell them to get the fuck out, you're closing.
>>29618585
This. Just do it. You won't get fired for it. And if you did, the fuck are you working there for.
>>29618585
Then your manager sees you and you just lost your job
>>29615672
>This happens
>Manager begins to look for you
>There are multiple ways out of the building
Real life metal gear solid
>>29618490
I'm >>29618530 >>29618240 and yeah. I don't even have "ultra Stacey" coworkers, they're mostly just average women who look cute sometimes, but seeing how guys treat them makes me feel kind of funny. I mean, guys are really nice to them and stuff and I wonder what it must feel like to constantly get positive affirmation. Instead I usually just get talked down to or ignored.
My coworkers treat the Staceys better too, they get better shifts and better roles than I do. Fuck, I almost wanted to kill myself a couple nights ago when I was at work and I had literally nothing to do because I was placed storefront by my failedchad Supervisor, and everyone else (cute girls) was placed drive-thru. I think I had one person come through the entire time, whereas drivethru is really busy. Usually I would take that time to clean but the Supervisor said that Stacey 1+2 should mop the floors/dishes/etc... I was literally standing there awkwardly for 4 hours trying to find "little" things to do (the hardest part of the job imo) and then the manager cut my shift early and told me to go home. I thought I was going to shoot up the place I was so livid. My time/energy/money should be just as important as everyone else's... even if I don't look like a bimbo Stacey.He even spent the entire time flirting with them... even though he's married. Yuck.
>>29618607
>the manager cares enough about a single customer acting like a cunt
>it's not more work to train some other schmuck to do your work, and your manager can be arsed
>the shop doesn't actually lose money on this customer anyways
>>29616260
Somehow i don't think that guy was a normie. Nice meme though.

Somewhat related from my dishwashing job last summer
>Work as dishwasher at bbq place
>when I started this 50 year old puerto rican fellow comes and helps me dishwash since there was a lot
>"oh he seems like a nice guy"
>he tells me about how much he hates guns and gangs and how bruce lee is a great philosopher
>as the summer goes on he starts coming in angrier and angrier
>constantly bitched about the "youth of today" and how spoiled we are and how our parents are spoiling us because they don't literally beat the shit out of us like his dad did to him. (he even made a comment once when he saw a guy hug his dad on how that was spoiling them)
>He was a mega bootstrap who'd always complain about "work ethic" and how everything should be perfect for a business. Made a whole ordeal when we wanted to start washing the grill racks outside on mondays with all the other smoking equipment about how that was bad work ethic. (these grill racks halted everything being done in the basement and made a giant mess)
>couldn't tell anything to him, he'd blab it to all the coworkers
Example
>One day this kid they hired as another dishwasher called off for about the 1000th time (the kid didn't get fired until about a month or two after I quit for college)
>Angrily say that "Why should I have to work two shifts for this kid so that he can go do drugs"'
>Weeks later
>Boss comes down and kindly asks if I want to work a double because this punk kid called off
>Say nah, I can't today (I was really tired and had a headache)
>go upstairs because nothing was going on
>Puerto rican says "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DON'T WANT TO WORK BECAUSE THAT KID DOES DRUGS"
>wat
>I go home that day and come back the next and he's told everyone about how i refused to take another shift because some asshole kid did drugs when that wasn't even the reason. (He didn't even like the kid)
God that guy was an ass.

>work Safeway, get promoted to Starbucks barista
>pretty chill, I would stand in a kiosk by myself making drinks for customers

>clock into shift and notice a huge line from Starbucks kiosk to the deli.
>Go talk to assistant manager about the situation.says "just do your best."

>customers start screaming there order to me when I'm just looking over what needs to be done.
