>>29466797
I worked cleaning carpets 3~ years ago, I had a customer go apeshit because he got a discount and wasn't told about it.
We quoted him for $xxx, when we arrived and actually did the work we charged him $xxx - ($50). He stood there and screamed at us, calling us crooks and thieves, tax evading lowlifes etc etc.
We ended up taking off the discount and charging him in full, he was happy then.
>>29466866
Quotes are expected to be an accurate statement of how much it will cost for this amount of work.
>>29466893
Which is why we never went OVER an estimate, I worked that job for a year and a half, and that was the only person I've seen be unhappy to have to pay less than what they should have.

>>29467237
I work in the dairy/frozen section of a grocery store atm. Im pretty sure its the job of someone else to move pallets and shit.
My duties are
>get shit from pile of shit that needs to be stocked that day, put the shit on a cart
>take cart and put shit on the shelves that it needs to go
>around closing move any products pushed to the back up to the front
And thats literally all I do. I just have a pile of shit that needs to go places at the start of my shift and my only duty is to make sure it goes where it needs to by the end. Nobody even talks to me ever unless its a customer that needs help with something.
>>29467263
I used to be a NEET and I would rather work a shitty job then be on my computer from when I wake up to when I sleep and not be able to buy anything besides basic necessities. I was more depresessed as NEET than as a wagecuck.

I worked in call center for 2 months, 1 month of which was training in a classroom. I quit 3 weeks into taking live calls on my own. I don't understand how people can work at a call center for years and years instead of just blowing their fucking brains out. I was sitting next to a guy who had been working in that department for 7 years. What the fuck, how do the normies do it?

How do the most autistic hateful people always get hired as managers of fast food restaraunts
about a month ago there was a cashier girl at the supermarket that was extremely unpolite to me for no reason (I guess she routinely gets harassed for being a girl and lashed out at me??)

how do I get back at her?

I once won $10 in store credit during a morning rally. The damn thing was more like a 50% off coupon, though, in that you had to spend at least $20 to get the discount. Why would someone act like such a Jew over a $10 reward to your employee?
>>29467775
That manager is actually a total lad for the most part. I guess he was just having a bad day or something cus he's usually one for some banter.
All of the managers at my BK are pretty nice desu, one was a cunt but he stopped turning up to work and got fired.

All jobs are different. I used to work as an usher and the turnover rate was ridiculous, mostly because they hired the dumbest high schoolers (like me)and mexicans. They let me stay on for years even though I wasn't doing that great a job, and even got kicked off of cashiering because I kept fucking up the register.
I hated concessioning. I tried to do anything else they needed back there rather than cashiering because I knew I'd fuck it up somehow.
As usher I had a schedule and a dustpan. It was basically me walking the entire place for eight hours. I am and was a fat bastard so that shit could wear me the fuck down though, maybe thats normal.

Oh and last call I took before I quit I billed the guy $650 because he was being an entitled prick

When I worked at Macy's, one morning we "celebrated" some woman having worked there for 50 years. Fifty. More than double the amount of time I had been alive, at the time. And her lot in life? Just signing and stocking displays in the morning. Either, as she aged, she opted for less work, or never attained anything more than that.
I worked at Zaxby's. It was stressful when busy but not too bad. Really the worst part was washing dishes. That was fucking torture. TONS of disgusting dishes piled up in a hot, humid room and I have to wash them at the speed of light in a sink that's too small.

WHO /RETAIL MADE ME RACIST/ HERE?
>It's a black families buy shitloads of food at the movie theater episode
>>29466128
I work retail, blacks are the absolute worst in almost every that's.
All the blacks that I have to work with are stupid lazy asshole that just play their shit rap music over the warehouse radio and would rather stand around and talk about sports or stupid bullshit instead of work.
A supermajority of black customers don't actually ever buy anything. They just waltz in the store and roam around touching shit and taking up space and blocking stuff for people actually interested in buying. They're the most annoying people to deal with especially when they ask for help because they're usually really rude on top of not speaking any form of English that I can understand on a regular basis (I've run into my fair share of latinos and even Arabs that don't speak English but at least they're humble about it and aren't rude assholes).
The ones that do buy stuff also never never bother actually looking for what they want. They walk in then demand to be told where the thing they want is despite there being giant signs plastered all over the store (all visible from the entrance) telling you where everything is. Sometimes it's even right in front of them but they don't see it because they can't be assed to look for it themselves. One time we had this idiot dindu buy a fucking GPS then he angrily returned it the next day because he as to fucking stupid to work it (I tested it, it was fully functional). The worst ones are the ones with kids. They keep almost zero tabs on their children and let them roam around touching fucking everything they can get their grubby little fingers on. Then when they get ready to leave they start screaming across the store for their kids like idiots.
The only decent nigs that I had an encounter with were clearly mixed.
I fucking hate retail.

I worked in a center doing tech "support" for an ISP for about 2 years. It's pretty miserable but after a while I got used to it and just muted my mic and laughed when people were retarded. The shittiest part was working 7 am shifts. Getting on the phone with a retard/drunk guy at 7 am and having to fix their problem is the worst feeling in the world.
At least when I got laid off I was able to go through the list of accounts that wronged me and fuck their internet up.

I work in a discount retail store that has mostly Indians and Spanish people who shop in it.
It's weird since the housing in this area is mostly white.
I've started to get annoyed with how they treat merchandise and then complain if it's dirty.
You literally just dragged a dress on the floor what do you expect?
I also just started working at Starbucks and I like it here a lot more because I guess I see less minorities and the customers actually speak English.
>>29466128

Grocery, to me, seems like retail and foodservice combined. Also, you probably get the worst customers because terrible people don't need fancy clothes but they need food.
I would never do grocery 2bh. Then again, my ultimate goal is to stay out of both retail and foodservice for as long as possible
>>29469938
they won't fire you. Managment creates a sense of dread and paranoia. You think you'll get fired, but really you won't. The only way you get fired is if you tell a customer "fuck you," or some other insult or hang up on them. The other way to get fired is just to call in sick a lot, be late regularly. Eventually they will fire you because their #'s are down, they won't get their bonus (they get those for good #'s usually), so you'll be fired and promptly replaced soon as possible.

One of my old co-workers had actually been working as a stocker at the store for 21 years, despite having two Master's degrees. No one who worked there wanted to be there (aside from one older guy who just worked because he liked having something to do while living off his retirement money). When I told my co-workers I was leaving for a salaried job, everyone lit up like crazy and got so happy, because it meant they had a chance to escape too.

Neither retail nor fast-food, but one of my best wagecuck jobs was being a lunch-tray lady at a dying shopping mall's food court. I'm not actually a lady but had to wear an apron and the other person that wasn't my supervisor was some 65 year old single lady with no children or friends of her own and wore too much make-up.
Anyways my job was exactly just that, collecting dirty plastic trays from tables, cleaning the tables, cleaning the trays, handing the trays back to the fast food places, sweep the floors and sometimes mop up a spilled drink or something.
Didn't have to deal with soccer moms and their screaming babies who were asking to see me manager because I wouldn't let them combine expired coupons, didn't have to worry about shoplifters, didn't even have to walk to anyone.
Easily the best job I had, I want to go back now... ideally at a different shopping mall though.
The one negative aspect, beside working with a couple of 65 year olds that I had nothing in common with, was that I sometimes had to clean the women's washroom. Not the toilets or anything but just the mirror and sinks and floors, which was really awkward when I was walking in on some 10 year old girl taking a shit.
>>29469196
I want to personally thank you and every other person who asks me to see if we have more of some item in the back. You're basically authorizing me to go to the back and take a five minute break to dick around on my phone or talk to my coworkers.
>Fuck coupons
Fuck coupons
I work at a department store that loves to spam coupons that have a ton of restrictions every time and the customers get pissy as hell because they NEVER read.
>Why do you send out coupons that never work???
First of all, they do, you're just too lazy to take ten seconds to read before you decide to walk in.
Second of all, we're not in control of that in the least. Stop bitching to the cashiers. Stop blaming the cashiers. Stop trying to get the cashiers to break rules, company policy, and basic arithmetic to get the price you want.
Thirdly, if you haven't figured out that coupons are nothing more than glorified ads to get you to come in to the store, you're retarded.
Fourth, you don't need this shit in the first place. Stop having a fucking breakdown when it costs a lot. You chose to come in here, you can choose to buy absolutely nothing. Better yet, you can choose to take your persecution complex somewhere else.
>I'm never coming in here again!
PLEASE don't. Thank you and have a GREAT day! :)

Grocery is definitely better than fast food.
Fast food brings in the worst types of people, and even normal people can be at their worst. It's just the mentality, people are in a hurry and they're hungry and they're expecting a cheap deal so they're going to be in a bad mood on so many levels.
Also fast food is the go-to place for stoners and drunk people and Chads and roody-poos and a group of 6 Staceys who all come in a little cluster and giggle the entire time. Not so much a grocery store, it's almost always just regular people buying groceries.
Also depending on your job, you often have very little contact with customers, if even at all.
I haven't worked retail, but I imagine it has to be better than fast food but worse than grocery.
>>29470586
I don't mind actual couponers who take advantage of them, good for them. It's the entitled brats who fall for marketing tricks and blame it on the cashiers who I despise.
>>29470640

Indians. Fucking Indians. I don't think they own knives, because we ALWAYS have to cut/skin chickens and shit for them.
>>29470672
Some Indian bitch was whining that we charged her too much for her product and I told her "No, it's the right price" and then ignored her, went to the next customer (I was at the help desk). She walked away muttering "they don't care they don't care". I hope she got hit by a fucking car on the way out. I can't stand these people. I actually get so angry I get heart burn. I don't know how to deal with this. I hate Indians so much. I wasn't racist before this job. Everytime I see an Indian I get so angry I start shaking. How the hell do you people deal with this?

>>29470642
I see. When I picture grocery I just think of cashiers (who are often also bagging thanks to being chronically understaffed) scanning soccer moms who bought half the store for their obese kids, who are often with them grabbing candy off the shelf. Meanwhile, the lines are long and there's a literal conveyor belt of stuff coming at you. I feel like it would make me pretty anxious.
>>29469982
God I fucking hate old people. Like theres a few (A FEW) are cool and just want to talk about cool shit they've done, but the majority are bitter, cranky fucks that don't give a shit how they act because they are about to die and probably lived a shitty life. They're the ones that use checks (FUCKING CHECKS), complain about not getting a 10 cent discount, the most likely to sue over their own raggedy ass legs failing to overcome a six inch curb and will make sure to complain to every available outlet with all their free time. Normal people don't have time to write a letter to every fucking corporate headquarter to complain about anon not listening to them bitch about their ulcers, but the elderly do.
Seriously, if they fail the cool old person test then they should be shipped off to a retirement home where they can only bother nurses and orderlies.
>>29470529
I knot that feel bro, I worked a local fast food place and customers would A L W A Y S try to combine coupons together or a coupon with some in-store promotion or something and we'd always have to go back to "it says on the fine print that you can't combine offers".
Then again it wasn't just the customers that were dumb when it came to coupons, the owners and management had a few screws loose as well.
I would work evening shifts, just weekdays, leave on Friday and come back on Monday. Come Monday there's two new coupons that I was never told about as well as three new in-store specials that I was also never warned about as well and of course I wasn't told how to process those into the cash or anything. That fucking cash that ran on Windows ME or some shit used to give me panic attacks.
>>29470698
Bro I know that shit. There's a small gated community next to my work and they all buy the same thing. A whole chicken, skinned, deboned, cut into small pieces. I've got so good at it it doesn't bother me to do it but I can guess what they want as soon as they walk up to me with a whole body. Are you a meat cutter?

>1:00 AM
>about to go on lunch break, just needed to finish unloading my pallet of ramen
>maintenance had been waxing floors over by the milk so they put barriers to keep customers from accessing the area
>they had big fans plugged in to make it dry faster

>customer angrily proceeds to go and unplug the fan
>customer then walks up to me as I was stocking and yells "FUCK YOU ASSHOLE, IM SICK OF YOUR SHIT"
>he then leaves
Was pretty weird. There was also a drunk guy that showed up every Thursday night looking for things like Quinoa, couscous, tabbouleh, etc. It was usually hilarious because he couldn't pronounce any of those dishes to save his life.
honestly we should ban all old white people from stores.
If they try to come in their punishment should be being publically shamed over the intercom

>>29470758
I used to work as a bag boy and cashiers would only be bagging if there wasn't a line-up. Cashiers would just scan the items and it was entirely up to us to bag the items as fast or quicker than they could send them rolling our way to make sure that some old lady's eggs wasn't crushed by watermelons. It was often one bag-boy for two or more cashiers since the other one or others was either collecting carts outside, collecting those little hand baskets inside the store, or emptying out the machine that collects & crushes soda cans.
People who worked various sections, like fruits & veggies, frozen shit in the back or the meat counter and whatever else seemed to have it pretty good. I had a friend who stocked shelves at night and while that was also fast-paced there was no bullshit involved at least.
>>29470825
>De-boned
Christ, I didn't even know about that. Thankfully we just have to skin it and cut it into like 20+ pieces.
Yeah meat cutter. Usually just chicken, sometimes tenderloin or ribeyes or something. I guess you are too?

Retail made me significantly less racist against Hispanics: they often didn't/barely spoke English, but they'd come in, still in their service industry uniforms covered in stains, their eyes bleary and bloodshot, and it'd be clear that they were working very hard, which made it understandable to me that they might not have the time to learn. I also had Hispanic co-workers who were working two jobs to make ends meet. Aside from the language barrier, they were generally nice and polite.
On the other hand, retail made me a hell of a lot more racist against Indians. They're the most annoying and oblivious group of people I've ever encountered: I've met more diagnosed autistic people than I can count with more situational awareness than your average Indian. And they're entitled as hell, too. No matter how busy you are, they'll always ask for you to go out of your way for every little thing. Sometimes they'd even ask me to GET THEIR SHIT FROM THE SHELVES FOR THEM, like they can't do anything on their own. I don't know what it is about Indians specifically, either.
>>29471166
It doesn't weed out the lazy and idiotic, it selects for the dishonest and manipulative. Very positive traits but you run into ethics problems when you put that on the job listing. This way allows the company plausible deniability in case something bad comes from an employee.
It's understandable why a naive person would be discouraged from seeing a listing they can't fulfill. Not wanting their own time wasted they don't waste others' time either. I often have trouble reading into things too. I either take things as literal when I shouldn't or I get tripped up looking for the secret message hidden in straightforward communication. It is a skill autists can grind but it's an uphill battle when you don't have the low level telepathy most neurotypicals possess.
Personally I think the tradeoff is worth it for the excellent critical thinking and analytical skills. Care has to taken to acknowledge the audience's competence but once you find your niche any good director will put you in charge of a mostly self directed thing and any meetings will either be with peers or people who it would be advantageous to intimidate by speaking above their heads. Many of the busy bodies mistake focus and competence as laziness and try to bog down projects with irrelevant bullshit and it makes the directors job easier if you put the others down and make them feel stupid. Take the wind out of their sails so to speak. Retail and food service are bad fits for autists though. I'm a data analyst with no degree but I'm indispensable because no one else has my skills. Elementary statistics, some scripting and familiarity with databases and and high level of spreadsheet wizardry is all it takes. The EVE memes are real. My job experience/portfolio came from working on a fansite as a hobby. Before that I would do latex formatting. People pay for it because they're intimidated by it. It's easy but you do need to know what you're doing.
Autists like computers, right? Do that.
Worked at the only convenience store in Morrison, Colorado, which is where Red Rocks Amphitheater and Bandemere speed way are. Whenever either had a big event, the store would get fucking swamped, i'm talking lines just to get into the store, then lines snaking the entirety of the medium sized gas station so people could buy their snacks and 3.2% abv beer they couldn't even take into the venues. It was nonstop, super stressful overloads on those days.
The racecar hicks were bad, but the hippies that congregated for whatever big jam band festival were the absolute worst. They would smoke pot fucking everywhere (this was in 2005-2006); in the bathroom, in the parking lot, in the middle of the store. They would steal shit and usually be dicks even though they're "hippies".
One day someone drank too much or took too many drugs and puked everywhere in the restroom but the toilet. Filled the sink the entire way up. Nobody in the store wanted to clean it, I certainly wasn't going to for minimum wage, but one of the senior CSRs finally went and did it, almost puked himself.
I quit after three months, it was a long drive and way too stressful to endure.
>>29471500
When I said that you don't have to follow their standards I meant that you don't have to lie about your experience, instead provide actual arguments why you think you deserve the job/can handle it without their bullshit requirements in a succinct way while being confident in the fact that you can handle sitting behind a desk all day and doing repetitive and fairly simple tasks well (especially if you have years of experience on 4chan) that even monkey could do if you trained him long enough.
>>29471357
Same. Did retail and catering. Don't give a shit if it was grocery or a rich kid quincenera the Hispanics didn't treat me like horseshit.
>>29471616
I see what you mean now, so we're talking an equivalence type deal here. That's something I hadn't considered. I guess I'm reading too much macho ravioli. Depending if he's the more assertive autist or not would make the difference there. I'm very much the edgy intj-a stereotype so I'm great at talking to people. I have a very strong conviction. Talking with people is the hard part. That's why I hate female hiring managers, or female 'professionals' in general. As long as I can lead the interview I usually got called back when hunting. Women always try to play games and engage in lots of trickery. They're so stupid they can't tell the difference between bullshit and profound understanding so they focus on the non issues and try to hog the interview. To them work is fun instead of about building shit and making money. I can't get through to such people.

Working in shitty restaurants made me appreciate first-generation immigrants, especially Africans.
There was this one breakfast place I worked at and this African dude named Adwin who would come in and wash dishes still wearing his gas station uniform where he would work overnight.
I'm grumpy because I stayed up late playing video games and only got to sleep for 7 hours and this guy has been awake for probably 29 hours or something.
This one time I asked him if he just sleeps for 24 hours one day of the week to catch up or ever take a break or something and with his face nearly in the dish-dryer machine he like wiffs the hot air towards his face and breathes and goes NO MY FRIEND I GET ENERGY FROM DA STEEEAAAM, IT GIVES ME GREAT POWAH!

I'm a good old southern boy so I'm genetically predisposed to hating niggers but I'll readily admit Indians are worse. At least most niggers know they're shit and are openly being themselves. I hate them but it's an honest kind of shittiness. Indians act exactly the same but not only think they aren't subhuman pieces of shit, they sometimes act as if they're above me. I was visiting a family member at their little cafe. I'm behind the counter talking and this shitskin walked up and said something in their thick slurpy accent. I can't even remember what it was but it pissed me the fuck off. It's one thing to ask politely and I either say I don't work here, or more likely just do it if it's something small, but they have no manners. I know nigger is a common suffix for pejorative neologisms but I think it'd be more accurate to use Indian. Instead of sandnigger say sandindian. It's not as catchy but fuck Indians.

How much is an extra patty? I love mcdoubles, diet coke and all but wish they had three patties because I still have /fit/ autism and muh macros. Bitch told me it'd be $1.50 but seemed unsure. I order three and just toss the buns from one of them. Extra delicious pickles and onions for the same quote she gave me, and fucktards always stack it wrong anyway so it's no extra work for me. They need a mctriple though because the quarter pounder tastes like ass, I just like the mustard, the actual patty almost tastes like something burger King would serve.
>>29470580
your total would be the same you imbecile. I'm a cashier and I do this literally every day. Please kill yourself.
>>29472557
If you ever worked fast food, you'd realize half the people there don't care if your burger isn't stacked right.
If you bitch and moan enough, you just might get someone that cares enough to fix it to suit your autism.
Why don't you just, ya know, go get your own ingredients and make it yourself? Way healthier and taste better, obviously.

I worked at a dollar theater for five years and had the time of my life. Great coworkers, friendly and relaxed regulars, and free stuff out the ass. Made some very good friends there.
Anyone work at a paint store? I've been at Sherwin Williams for three years now and it's a cool job. I'm one of four employees so I don't feel like a worthless cog in the paint machine and most of our regulars are nice guys who are easy to get along with. I don't give two shits about paint though so the feeling that II'm wasting my time is always in the back of my mind.
>>29472920
Its a mild annoyance but it's a <$2 burger so I don't expect surgical precision. That's why I'm not bothered by making my own mctriples. I'm asking more because if it's cheaper I'd rather less waste to dispose of.
Making my own is not any healthier really, it would just taste better. Healthy is another thing that triggers my autism because it's used to mean 'I like it but somehow have a moral conviction behind my culinary preference' . If it is food it is sustaining, it continues metabolism so it's healthy. If you pushed me I'd go by macronutrients because while rocks can provide trace elements it's not going to keep you alive for long.
Mcdonald's breakfast is terrible so I make my own but I eat out for convenience and burgers are hard to store. It's like if I'm going to all the trouble I might as well just make it a proper meal. I do like that Kroger sells individual rolls now. It's hard to make a burger better than mcdonald's while on lunch break though. Pulled pork or beef freezes well though, it just needs fresh bread and it's done. Sloppy joes even some pasha dishes freeze. Burgers don't though,not unless you like shitty dry lean unhealthy garbage.

>>29474119
The highest up is the owner and dad of the stoner kid, he told my boss to pair us up every day. My boss is sympathetic and gives me one day a week without him.
Each worker has a commission percentage. We work jobs that are pre priced by the company and each worker gets his percent of the price for the jobs they do. So say he and I get a job that charges the customer $650. I do 90% of the work. He and I each get our % of the $650.

say my % is 13%. If I do 90% of the work or 50%, my pay for the job is the same. If I work with someone who actually does work, then we can get more jobs done, and make more money.
With the stoner (we) do about $800 of jobs a day, making me $104
With any other employee we can complete about $1400 of jobs a day, making me $182
an extra $78 a day working just the same.

Different anon, but just don't look suspicious. Employees generally don't bug the same person twice, so once one asks you if they can help, deny, and continue browsing for a good 2 minutes like you're looking for something then casually either remove it from it's packaging or remove the barcode. You can also take an electronics item of low value to another, less frequented department and do it there.
Another thing to note is if you're ever caught, drop everything you're trying to steal and run. Excuses won't work at that point and if they get a good luck at your face, you'd be lucky to go back there again if you needed to.
Try not having anything suspicious on like a jacket in the summer or a backpack for jogging in the winter or something. Dress like a normie and you'll fit right in. Don't make yourself recognizable and don't wear a hood or shades indoors unless you're making an impromptu exit. Plan your exits in advance and if it's in a mall, don't risk it. Leave the mall for a couple of weeks, maybe a month or two.
Know what you want to steal and understand the packaging ahead of time. When you try to steal it, work fast but careful. If you have any friends you can count on, that'll help. And most importantly, do it for a reason. Make what you steal worth it.

Not him, but read the post
>I never go to the same store more than twice in a year.
Never get greedy. Just take a piece here and there. You can almost never be caught the first time because, unless someone is specifically following you (like a security guard) they will not pick up on it and it will cost them more to find you than it would cost to replace the items.
Some guy once stole $500 of panadol off a very visible shelf in our store without anyone noticing. There were about 10 employees on the floor at the time. He was caught because like a dumb piece of shit he came back two days later and someone recognised him from the security footage.

tbqh I will make an attempt to follow a nice ass when I'm dust mopping.
There's always something small to clean pretty much everywhere, so if they happen to stop and notice me, I can always look away before they make eye contact, and begin sweeping/mopping something nearby. Completely inconspicuous.

This guy prob has a register that counts when it's been opened and reopened. It the open isn't recorded with a transaction you could get in trouble. That's how my old place was
>>29466713
I've been cashier training for two weeks. I was a nervous fuck on my first day working the register but now I am getting quite used to it. You'll deal with all kinds of customers so be prepared for that. The best way I learn is through hands on and I've gotten it down for the most part through this way. Make sure you are always friendly with customers. I still have things to learn but I am doing better now. I struggle with social anxiety and so this job is good practice for me to face this disorder.

>>can't do anything because I already entered in that she gave me a $20

It seems like he was going by the book. Why not take the coins and giver her the dollar? It squares out at the end, I dont see the problem here. I have done it before, have had it done to me before, and will do it again.
I dont see his problem.

nah man they're not some 35 year old manager with "problem glasses", they're not going to be angry and yell at you to do your job. They see work like a race, if the guy running next to them isn't running as fast as they can that's not their worry, they just focus on the finish line.

Most African Immigrants(Male) I have met at work are so friendly. A Nigerian named Oljemi(?) invited me to a bloody cook out he was shopping for and brought me a pound of curry goat the next day because I said I had to work.
Our local stock could learn a lot from them.

>>29466713
As the guy said, stressful as fuck at first. The important thing to remember is that it isn't worth your time to worry about anything except what falls reasonably within your time at work and your job description.
Also the anxiety of working checkout will fade to boredom because waiting for and talking to customers is like slow suicide.

Good point. The women on the other hand, have EXTREME amounts of attitude and sass. Mostly because they all end up working the shittiest jobs on earth: orderlies in retirement homes.

Depends on the place. Smaller grocery stores and independent stores do use them to restock those shopping carts when there are no costumers.
>>29471357
The caste system in their shitty country. Everything is about status with them and they treat anyone below their caste like shit. If you are CSR, cashier, whatever entry level job in India you are from a shit caste and you are looked down upon and only exist to serve people of higher castes.
In America (rest of the world?), entry level jobs are for people in school or trying to work their way up, its just a job in between what theyre probably in training for. Indians don't move up or down, once a cashier always a cashier. They are mere servants that are at the command of doctors and engineers.

AHHHHHHH
I have a million other things that pissed me off but thankfully I no longer work in a grocery store and I'd not want to relive it too much.
Worst things at self-checkout:
>Fuckers slamming the "Place item in bag" button and putting the item on the bagscale.
It WILL FREEZE, fuckwit. Read the words.
>Niggers trying to buy Visa gift cards with stolen credit cards.
I can see EXACTLY what you're ringing up. It's not hidden behind the Cheetos and Coke, you fucker.
>People who only want a pack of cigarettes and come from the wrong way to ask for them.
Go to a fucking gas station. I'm running six registers of morons here, and you're JONESING for some Camel Blues? Fuck off.
It's really not that bad, especially compared to a real register. I can move around a lot, and talk to a lot of coworkers and customers without the supervisor breathing down my neck.
>>29476153
>there's a second bag of apples, some of which are the same kind as ones in the first bag
>>29470828
not my payscale
I find customers without a basket or cart, so I ask them if they'd like one, and every single one says no. But the manual says I should do this, and that they'll take it and be happy! Take my fucking baskets!

Been NEET since high school, what do I put on my resume? Just want a job flipping burgers.
Is there any worse nightmare mode working cashier at grocery than having to enter WIC? It was always ornery moms with their three screaming infants who would always be surprised the sugary cereal they picked up was a nonWIC item. And then if on the fruit/veg they went over the limit they would pay you in the smallest change they could find. And the whole process of entering te WIC check took fucking forever.

>>29476554
It took me like a week total getting a job flipping burgers at Sonic, from applying, to calling the store, to getting a 4 minute interview the following day, to working the day after that
Ive been here a year a week from now (longer than any cook, 2nd longest in the store) and it's a shitty job but I honestly really like most of the people I work with, especially my fellow cooks. It's only truly shit when it's really busy and the managers are busting your balls despite not scheduling enough people to work and help out. Also closing sucks (Ive closed about 95% of my says there) because I get home at 1am soaking wet from doing the floors.
I'm leaving soon, but in retrospect, it wasn't a terrible first job. Can't say you'll share the same experience though, as I cook exclusively and have had maybe 5 total customer interactions. Never did any cashiering.
Last night when I went to a drive through after I placed my order the server asked if wanted to add a chocolate pie for 1.50, I was agreeable, when I get to the windows to pay she seemed genuinely excited an explained that I had been the only person to accept her up sell all day.
She was quite adorable

>'ooohhhh you can't lift Mr Quaker Oat can you even lift a post it note?'
>they laugh some more
>pretend to find it funny
Just fuck this. It happens all the time as well as there are so many customers who think they are hilarious, especially old men and young niggers although the above example was neither.
