They do that to me as well.
My favorite is when they ask if we have a product in stock in back, like I, a front end person would know.
stupid ass people
What do people think they're accomplishing by bitching to me about gas prices or how we don't loan out tire gauges or whatever
I just work here you faggots Jesus fucking Christ
I am a cashier in KFC. What really bugs me is that most people I interact with probably have decent jobs and function in society way better than I do.
Why is talking to them like talking to retarded kids then?
>>29707270
People love to feel that they're important and that they deserve the absolute best gourmet service possible even in a fast food restaurant or grocery store.
tldr: they're ignorant
>>29707373
That is an issue too, but that I don't really mind. What annoys me is they don't fucking use their brains. It's like they switch to retarded autist mode the moment they come to the counter. Half of the questions I wouldn't have to answer if they only used their fucking brains.
Also, the typical lines:
>do you wanna eat here or takeaway?
>yes
>do you wanna eat here or takeaway?
>no, that's all
>i want to get [this] and a drink
1 minute later
>why did I pay x when the menuboard says y?
BECAUSE YOU WANTED A FUCKING DRINK THAT COSTS MONEY YOU FUCKING RETARD
I used to work at store putting items to shelfs but got a factory job after. Pay is better and don't have to socialize with idiot customers.
>is the dip free?
>nope, it's extra
>WHY?
I have no idea, if I decided the prices I probably wouldn't be working as a fucking cashier

There is a fucking picture clearly showing bacon you fucking idiot, also if your imaginary friend doesn't want you to eat bacon it's your fucking business and you should ask about it before paying
Pic related, it's not hard to notice bacon
>it's a "black customer angry that their card was declined" episode

>he comes back and spills a huge pile of change onto the counter
Also customers from Italy - particularly Italy, don't know why - tend to not understand the concept of standing in lines.
Also old people who probably feel lonely because they come to KFC and only make problems because they can.
God, if you old farts are bored just learn to use the internet.
>work in Indiana where the sale of alcohol is not allowed on sundays

I don't like the law either but it's not the fucking grocery stores fault.
Blame the fucking christfags like Governor Pence for keeping a prohibition era law
>>29707696
people who pay with change should be killed slowly and violently

Still KFC fag here, most of the posts above are mine
>I want coke, some bigger one
>Err, actually, we only have one size
>I think you do have a bigger one
(I am here for eight hours almost everyday and I think we fucking don't)
>No, really, we only have one size. That's because are drinks are free refill
>I WORK IN A SHOP DOWNSTAIRS AND I WON'T BE RUNNING UP HERE TO GET COKE EVERY FIVE MINUTES
What's your fucking problem? Go to a supermarket downstairs (my restaurant is in the food court of a shopping centre) and buy a big fucking bottle of coke. They have a discount on them just now.
Ah wagecucks free yourselves from his slavery.
Also I meet a lot of people who shamelessly beg. Mostly old farts
>i'll have five wings, that's all
>do you want some fries or a drink? Or maybe a dip?
>no, I said that's all and pick me some bigger ones
Don't give a fuck about him, give him five random wings
>you din't pick me the big ones
I don't have to. There is a minimal weight for all the items we sell and I'm pretty sure those are enough. If you want more food, WHY DON'T YOU FUCKING BUY MORE FOOD
I am as poor as you'd expect from a fast food worker and I'm ashamed for it. I don't get how these people can display their poverty so shamelessly like that

Another interesting experience. Here's a little note - at the beginning of the shift I get 3000 czk in change and small banknotes to give change.
>a middle aged entitled woman comes in, my first customer this day
>buys literally the smallest shit she can buy
>hands me a 2000 czk bill
>"I'm sorry ma'am, have you got anything smaller"
>"NOPE"
>k
>I hand her 1960 czk in 100 czk bills because that's the biggest bills I have in the register
>"DON'T YOU HAVE ANYTHING BIGGER I DON'T WANT 2000 IN HUNDREDS"
>"No, I don't, that's why I asked you if you had any smaller ones"
>"I DON'T WANT THAT WHY DID YOU GIVE ME THIS"
Because it's fucking money you dumb bitch. You know, you could exchange this for goods and services
>"I'm sorry, I don't have any other bills, you're my first customer today"
>"I WANT BIGGER BILLS"
>finally I get the manager to break a bill so I could give her change the way she wants
>"WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG"
>"That's because the safe has a timelock for safety reasons, it opens after five minutes, which actually is not much time"
>"THAT'S THE LAST TIME I VISIT HERE"
>I finally get tired of her and allow myself a little honesty
>"Thanks"
>my manager actually laughs out loud at my response and pats my back right in front of her, what a fucking champ
tl;dr version
>come to a restaurant literally only to break a bill
>complain about the way you get your bill broken
>tfw work in a grocery store
Where all my grocerycucks at? Is there a bigger hell than this?
>>29707742
You should tap that anon.
>>29708258
you can refuse to to serve people anon, you know that right? i've gotten customers arrested before for stealing after i refused to sell to them.
>>29708043
I'd just tell them to fuck off, Even an actual retard I hired could count out 3 rows of 5 flats and 3 rows of 5 drums.
I had to fire him for eating the customers food on the way there but thats beside the point.
>tfw just got a job and might be forced to learn and use the register
>afraid of fucking up badly, getting fired, and being embarrassed since a few of my peers from school work there

>bakery workers dont come in until 7am. nothing i can do.
>"there's nothing i can do until the bakery opens at 7am. im sorry"
>loses her shit. "i need to see a manager now."
>call over manager. he explains the same thing.
>she leaves threatening to call corporate
that was like a year ago, and we're still here, so corporate probably didnt care.
I finally got promoted to assistant manager, which I thought was great, and I do enjoy the pay. However, now I have to deal with this shit all the time:
>be me
>be 18 years old
>work at sonic drive in
>have to teach new carhops how to not be retarded and use the order boards correctly
>"anon, this customer is upset and wants to speak to a manager"
>fuckme.jpg

>incoherent mumbling
>I go outside to talk to the guy
>"All I want is a cheeseburger with only mayo and ketchup. You guys have messed up my order 3 times and I'm sick of it."
>go inside
>make burger with bread, meat, cheese, mayo, and ketchup
>bring it out to customer, " sorry about the inconvenience, sir"
>3 minutes later
>"I'M DONE FUCKING PLAYING GAMES!"
>customer gets in my face

>customer is 6'4", about 240lb
>stare him down while screaming in my face
>mfw having abusive father has its benefits
>turns out the guy just wanted lettuce, tomato, pickle and onion on his burger with the mayo and ketchup
>"I WANT A REFUND!"
>"not with the way you've been acting, sir"

Seriously though, who the fuck gets that upset over a goddamn cheeseburger?
>>29708025
Oh dear lord I'm cracking up it's 2am over here and I'm sure I've woken someone up, but man what a fucking green text story.

Well, technically, I handed her legally accepted money so she had no right to complain about anything
>>29708371
One interesting thing I learned in KFC is counting 15 and 30 while talking to people, singing in my head and with literally anything going on around me. I could pack 15 Hot Wings with nuclear explosions all around me and I'd still know there is fifteen
>>29708421
How long did you work at Sonic before getting promoted to assistant manager?
>Can you please use the chip reader
I SAY THIS TO PEOPLE ATLEAST A 100 TIMES A DAY ITS NOT FUCKING HARD PUT THE CHIP IN YOU DUMBASS
>>29707990
how bout them fuckers who come in asking what vegetarian options you got? Like holy shit m8, it's a pick your toppings pizza for a reason.

About a year. Should've taken less time but my gm is retarded.
>>29708478
I worked at popeyes I know that feel why is it that niggers and spics only get spicy wings swear on my life its the only chicken they order
>>29707742
But anon, change is still currency.
I used to buy cigarettes with coins when I needed to, why do you hate us?
>>29708474
I was a little more concerned with whether or not this dude was going to punch me. Fortunately, I'm on a couple of the gangbangers I work with good side so I'm pretty sure they would have stabbed him if he did.
Seriously tho, I kinda like working in KFC. Maybe it's stockholm syndrome, but I kinda enjoy interacting with customers, watching and analyzing their behaviour and reactions.
Also, while the job is shit, the people I work with are total bros
>customer complaining about pickles being on her burger
>i snap and say "well maybe you could open the fucking burger and take the pickles off, or are you too stupid to do that?"
>get fired
this totally happened
>>29708550
if it's the last money you can find that's one thing
when you're counting out 18.76 in change and i can see the 20 just sitting there in your wallet while the line grows behind you, that's another thing
>oh, i was sure i had a penny somewhere!
JUST let this end
>>29708133
>not wanting a nice, sharp knife.
>>29708586
>the stare people give you when a customer is taking too long at the register
what do they want me to do
>>29708562
Also, interesting fact - complaints written by customers don't work unless there is a lot of complaints about one specific cashier.
I was rude to a customer once, like literally rude - it was an extremely hard day when nothing worked like it should, customers were fucking obnoxious and this one guy just made me snap.
Two days later a complaint comes, GM asks me about that. I deny everything, tell her the dude probably got annoyed and wanted to take shit on me.
>yeah anon, I thought so, I never seen you acting that way so I thought it was weird
Literally nothing happens.
>>29708654
Break that old woman's neck counting out her $18.70 in dimes so that the rest of can continue our meaningless lives. That's what we want you to do, anon.
>>29708586
We never have enough change on the restaurant, so I'm always glad for any.
>>29708550
You won't let me (professional money handler) count it myself (very fast) because you are a broke fuck and you are suspicious I might steal 25 cents from you. You dump it onto the flat counter and slowly sort through and add up s l o w l y one at a time before slowly picking them up one at a time from the flat surface with great difficulty to hand them to me. The whole time a line is forming behind and backing up with customers. After, I'm left with a drawer full of coins that I don't want. I have to roll them, which YOU should have done for me fucker. I have to count them when I'm closing my drawer to determine the balance. They're an annoying pain in the ass. Nobody likes having a pocket full of coins. Better yet use a credit card like a normal person.
>>29708025
Hello fellow stocker. It hurts how accurate this is.
If my parents owned a grocery store and I worked for them I'd be mean to all the bad customers.
I'd make old women walk to the car with their heavy groceries all by themselves and use the intercom to humiliate them by doing so.
I really don't like people
>>29707629
This makes me so angry. Fucking idiots. Are there ever any menu items with bacon that don't have some form of the word "bacon" in the name? Fuck.
>work at Dairy Queen
>customer shoves blizzard in my hand
>"um excuse me? There's not enough Oreo in this"
>the cup is mostly empty and entirely melted

>explain this to customer
>"well I still deserve more Oreo in this"
>literally wants me to shove her half-eaten, backwashed blizzard into our machine
happens at least once a day
I used to work for kwik shop a few years ago. Damn did I love refusing to break large bills. You can kindly go fuck yourself with your 1 stick of gum and 100 dollar bill. Why yes, those are two police officers coming inside who love the shit out of me for the free drinks and hotdogs I give them. Have a nice day fuck head. Take this card with corporate number on it as you leave to, see if I give a single fuck.
>that one guy who got a cart full of 20oz sodas just because it was on sale for 50c less.
>that one lady who filled 4 carts full of sale items, and the cashier spent 40 minutes scanning her stuff
people really go out of their way to just save a few dollars.
>>29708733
>"there's no bacon, right?"
This takes less than a second. And that's literally one of the reasons why I'm there.
Sadly, because there is a word "chicken" in our name we're the first choice for sandniggers.

Most supermarkets in my country have a limit on discount items. When there is a really good discount, there also is "max 12 items per person per day" or something like that
these stories happened this weekend
>egg delivery truck caught on fire
>we haven't had eggs in all week
>had signs up at both entrances/exits
>also had eggs on the egg cooler
>every second customer ask "herpdederpdederp you got any eggs?
>finally get egg shipment in yesterday
>the 1.5 pallets we have come in sold out before i left this evening
>put up sign about it
>still asking if we have any eggs... AFTER READING THE "SORRY WE HAVE NO EGGS" SIGN
the only good thing about this is that asking "do you have any eggs out back?" has turned into a meme between a couple coworkers and i.
>usually a floorperson/stockboy on weekends
>also usually have to put a cash in, just in case it gets busy
>get called up to go on cash this evening
>a middle aged woman and her mom are the first people i served
>they have a cart of stuff each
>finish the older woman first
>the middle aged woman just stops and looks at her mom's receipt for the longest time (like, 30 or 40 seconds) without budging
>she doesn't ask me anything about it. she's just studying the receipt like she's trying to learn the times tables
>the line is getting longer, so i politely ask if she could put her stuff up, because of the line
>she huffs, puts her shit on the cash
>finish transaction
>wish her a good day, and she grunts a "yuh" at me.
>she proceeds to talk to someone she knows
fucking customers, man.
>>29706829
they do this to me when i'm phoning my ride. i'm also wearing my hoodie and holding my lunch containers. i just walk past. i'm not being paid to look for Pepsi or eggs out back, so fuck off..
>>29708806
You obviously don't know my parents.
Also no good family member fires their kid. Only niggers and white trash do shit like that.
>>29708835

Even for /r9k/, you seem a little out of touch with reality. Business is business, and if you're losing your family money by being a little shitpig, I promise you they wouldn't hesitate to kick your sorry ass to the curb. >>29708730
Seriously? I don't like people when they're being assholes to me. But what you would do, just being a prick to people for the sole purpose of being a prick? That is some low-life shit, you are what's wrong with society and should be ashamed of yourself.
>>29706255
All day breakfast is the worst thing to happen to me as a crewmember of McDonald's at my location
>>29708857
Yep, the reason is mostly because chinese/vietnamese guys would buy millions of those, wait till the discount ends and then resell it. They make profit, and still sell for less than regural supermarket price.

That's what A LOT of fast food customers do.
I don't know why, is it some kind of a trend in the recent years? Do people think being a dick makes them cool?
I think it kinda started when House MD got big
>>29708379
I've worked register for 2 years to get through school anon, and I can tell you that it's really not hard. At all. The computer does all the work for you, and the worst thing that could happen to you is you forget a specific code or something, in which case you could just ask somebody. You're expected to ask questions.
>>29708796
the store where i work set limits for similar reasons - the limits are eight 2L sodas, four dozen eggs (two at sale price, two at 20 cents more), 12 cans of condensed milk, etc.
it has been since i started working there. we had a lot of Chinese people buying dozens and dozens of eggs for their restaurants, people buying soda for their stores, whatever.
customers are still bitching about the limits. i still don't understand

Top laffo
>>29708973
the chinese people here own restaurants. they'd buy dozens of eggs, then get dozens of meal out of one carton.
i mean, it's a brilliant business decision (people around here love their chinese food, so they can put it in a lot of fried rice or whatever). it's annoying trying to tell a dude that can barely speak English that they can only buy four eggs.
>>29708845
or, y'know, people who realize that their children are little shits.
>>29708845
Even if they wouldn't fire you, they'd stick you in the back somewhere you wouldn't interact with customers.
seriously, does anyone here know how to work a fucking cash register?

>>29708997
Alright, cool. Thanks for easing my mind!
>>29709108
Most places dont even have "registers" any more. Its a point of sale system (POS) and is mostly software driven.
>>29709130
no, i want to know first hand experience from spergs like you. not some cracked article.
>>29709143
how the fuck d0es that work?
>>29708654
They want you to work faster you dumb lazy shit. HURRY UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>29709143
In KFC we have a touchscreen with all the menu items. You just touch the item customer works, the guys in the back see the order on the display and the register knows the prices already.
Is it what do we call POS?

My sister had it worse in Subway. Muslim customers would made her toss her plastic handgloves and wear new ones because of the possibility of having touched filthy bacon before hand.
I remember seeing once some muslim father berating a chinese vendor for some bubbly tea, making him go to the storage room and read the ingredients of the can out loud to be really sure there was no pig on the beverage.
Fair enough, the vendor took inmediately the tea drink out of the menu.

I never had coin rollers, but I always pre-counted my coins before i bought my cigarettes. Usually I'd show up with a cellophane from my last pack filled with the exact amount of money to buy a new pack burned shut, I'd open it and quickly count out the roughly four dollars because the people behind the counter never seemed to want to count it themselves. It was more of a "see, I'm not trying to get 10 cents off a pack, this is exactly the price" thing, it was never a "You're trying to steal a quarter from me!" thing.
I'm s-s-sorry.

You should have been trained. If you weren't, you have an extremely shitty job and may want to reconsider.

a similar thing happened at my store
i work at a Shoppers Drug Mart in a 50ish year old, run down mall. one Friday before a two-day weekend sale, an overhead water pipe bursts. we were forced to evacuate. that evening, we had our exit door opened, to let the water flow out. (the pipe that burst happened to be near the exit door.) we had a couple signs made up to say we were closed until further notice, but customers still asked if we were opened.
this continued for the two days it took to clean it up. make the best of it, it damaged literally all of our feminine hygiene products - literally all of our tampons had to be replaced, so we lost a few thousand dollars on that. we had customers bitching about that, bitching about whether or not we'd honour the two day sale prices (we were closed during the sale, which was nothing spectacular btw).

My dad went off on a Sonic manager once. He didn't get out of the car, but called the women a fat cunt, which she was. They didn't put any ketchup in the bag and we waited for 20 mins before someone finally bothered to give us some ketchup. When she came out SHE was upset and said;
>if you wanted ketchup you should've asked for some when you ordered, we don't have time to bring everyone ketchup
she was a fat cunt
>tfw customers complain to you about something you have literally nothing to do with and have no control over
I'm a personal shopper and customers have absolutely no idea how little authority I have when it comes to shit like pricing, stock availability, payment processing, whatever the fuck else they have problems with.
I literally go into the store with a cart and buy the groceries, that's fucking it, I'm not responsible if your card is fucking declined, or if an item you wanted is out of stock, or if you believe something is priced unfairly. I catch so much shit for things I have no control over it's insane, customers will do things like outright demand free groceries because they missed a sale, or yell at me when they try to use outdated coupons and our system refuses to process them, it is utter madness.
Then they file fucking complaints and the store manager yells at us despite doing our jobs perfectly just because a customer was "less than satisfied" for reasons they refused to communicate. It's so unfair, my entire department is treated as subhuman, any complaint imaginable is pinned on us and we're just guys that push carts around.
I learned my mom is actually an annoying customer.
Sorry for anyone who had to deal with an overly energetic older woman who holds up the line during rush hours at a grocery store over a few dollars today.

A register is a whole lot easier than it looks, you only end up using the keypad and maybe 4 other buttons in 99% of transactions.
The real problem is that 1% case that literally nobody besides the cashier manufacturer knows how to handle, which nobody will blame you for anyway because it's so obscure.

It's so fucking stupidly accurate it's insane.
I had my store manager bitch about our department the other day about not being perfect. She literally said, word for word, "If there is even a single mistake, a single complaint, then there is something wrong with this department and somebody is probably getting fired."
Fucking kek'd right out of there and let my department manager take the heat, I'll never understand these people. If you want literal 100% perfection you'd better invest in some fucking robots or something.

my parents order Chinese with the same accent they use to order McDonald's or A&W or whatever. they treat Asian people the same as whites or blacks or whatever.
dad sometimes makes off-colour jokes towards minorites (orange Jews instead of orange juice, various crappy/racist jokes towards the Chinese or Asians in general - "like Japanese, Chinese, money please"). pretty sure he just says it for a laugh. i laugh at 'em, but i feel guilty about doing so afterwards.

Asians are so weird and distant from western culture that people don't know how to act around them. I go to this good jap restaurant where the owner/chef has a shred of shame and makes good food. It's very interesting to watch normies interact with the staff there. For some reason people assume that they don't speak English, which generally they don't, the staff knows English well enough to run the restaurant and that's all they need. But they know how to take an order. So it doesn't make any sense to enunciate every word off the menu like the waiter has never heard those words before.

worked infacilitiesat an Amazon warehouse. If you have a basic understanding of how to turn a wrench and use a screwdriver any moron can do what the tier 1 position requires.
comfiest job I've had so far, when everything is working right in the facility there's literally nothing to do. You stand around waiting for calls on your radio. I've walked loops around the warehouse with my pushable tool box to waste time. You're the only department allowed to have your phone (besides managers) so all the other wagie associates get real mad about it.
You're allowed to be on the computer "writing" up work orders or reading emails
Take breaks and lunch whenever you want (associates have designated times for each)

>>29710956
Depends on what kind of facility.
Non-sortables and sort facilities are pretty low key because you're basically an indirect and there's minimal basic requirements. As long as you do your job and don't bullshit around, than managers leave you alone.
That big ones with the kivas though? They have systems to track literally everything. Again, do the job and don't bullshit around and you'll be fine.

It gets annoying sometimes.
Once summer I went to California with some girls and we went to Venice Beach.
I was wearing some admittedly revealing shorts. This old ass lady comes up telling me to cover up or leave because it was a "public space for children." Considering as Venice is in no way a safe space for children I just shrug and go back to swimming.
About five minutes later an old man walks up and is all "Listen here faggot my wife asked you nicely to cover your ass up or leave. It's time for you to go." Actually a little concerned because the man sounds really southern and might actually try to do something. "I should grab your neck and drag you out of here myself!" Suddenly like 7-10 body buildersoh bbyrun over. This big black guy starts shouting "Fuck off! He can do whatever the hell he wants!" The old man flips me the bird and scampers off to his geriatric wife.i wish one of the body builders asked me if I had a "reward" for them...
the fact that you guys can put up with this shit everyday means that you're wall well adjusted normalfags and failed normalfags

Give good blowjobs, rimjobs and be willing to take it up the ass. If you knows and understands you're new to the game he should take the lead.

I mean. A twink with shaved legs, smooth skin and a soft voice is going to seem gay no matter what.

At least you don't seem like an obnoxious OVERLY flamboyant type of person despite appearing gay af. Most of the people in Australia that are gay and do your type of job are annoying turkey necked fluorescent blue dyed hair types.

I never call women "GURRRL" and never say "YASSS" so I think I'm doing okay in the obnoxious department.
I just like showing off and catching eyes, that's all. Those old people are lucky they didn't see running around in a speedo in Costa Rica pretty much trying to get people to stare at my bulge.

Reading all of these stories gives me terrible flash backs to when I use to work retail, I would dread coming into work everyday, the customers treat you like shit, the managers treat you like shit, hell even your fellow coworkers treat you like shit. I had enough to after 6 months and quit. Working at these dead end jobs in the public sector is akin to slavery. I had enough and just joined the military.
How people continue to slave away doing that soul crushing work where you get paid next to nothing is beyond me. If I had to go back to doing that shit I would outright kill myself.

I saw something similar happen earlier this year.
>sitting at the library

>Librarian: "No."

There has been a big cardboard sign hanging from the bottom of the card reader saying to insert the chip card with an arrow pointing to the slot and an image of how the card goes in.
>people still don't put it in
>people still ask where it goes
>people still put the card in backwards
Even worse:
>have to put the self checkout register in CARDS ONLY mode because out of money or whatnot
>it has a big red banner across the top and bottom of the screen to get the customers' attention and says "cards only no cash" on the banner
>when you press the start button or scan your first item a warning message comes up to say it won't accept or dispense cash, so the customer has to press the "OK" button saying they know before they continue
>screen still has big red banners and says "cards only" in multiple places
>customers still come to me asking why it won't take their cash
>>29708570
My best friend got fired for doing the same thing
>>29706829
Same.
Except.
Even when I just go into my store to shop on a day off customers will come talk to me and ask me where shit is.
Like fuck off, I'm in my street clothes. Leave me alone.
I never really worked in retail, and I'm not an american, so I never went through this shit.
But i worked a bit for my father, sometimes to meet customers. A few dumb ones but overall ok.
Now for the story
>dad asks me for help
>we'll have some stand in a party for a company
>basically a day around the carnival in brazil (we're not in brazil)
>we'll make t-shirts with the names of the employees' children
>people have all a fairly good situation, yet they rush our fucking stand
>rapidly out of t-shirts, some sizes were barely represented
>because it was supposed to be child, and a lot of teens were also here
>we struggle, some people make a fuss about not having a t-shirt, having wasted a few mns waiting
>everyone has ridiculous names, for example : Lucas, Lukas, Luka, Luca, Lyka
>areyoufuckingkiddingme.jpg
>eventually finish that shit
>go home with fifty bucks
A lot of people understood it was not our fault though, so there is that

To anyone stuck in their shitty retail jobs, you're probably young and you can find work just about anywhere else, that will most likely pay boatloads better than the garbage you're dealing with now. I spent over 6 years in a grocery store, and I regretted every second of it.

they're not better than you, unless they're an engineer or scientist making breakthrough advanced in technology they are just retarded sheeple that have learnt a skill a repeatable one, but they have a better job and get way more money than you do because of connections

Just go to HR and report them. This kind of behavior is unacceptable.
I worked at home depot for a year as a cashier. Coworkers and head cashiers liked me, but the managers hated my ass and I'd always do poorly on the shitty little reviews customers entered in on the back of receipts.
I think my worst story was during christmas.
>Volunteer for tree lot because I hate Christmas music
>They don't schedule anyone but me for an eight hour shift almost every day I'm scheduled
>This means I'm moving around helping people, holding up trees for people and cutting the string off of trees so people can see them, in addition to cutting off the bottom part and netting 6ft+ trees by myself
Good thing I'm 6'5 and have some sort of muscle mass
>One night guy comes in, asks to borrow scissors to cut the string off of the tree himself
>We can't loan out our scissors or tools because dipshit customers might hurt themselves or intentionally hurt themselves and try to sue which has happened at this store before
>Just go with him to cut the string off
>Eventually pick out a tree with his family and go to cut it, the family goes inside to pay for it and the guy stays with me
>tries to physically take the scissors from my hand and cut an indent in the tree where he wants it cut because pointed where he wants it isn't good enough
>say he can't use the scissors due to store policy and offer a sharpie to use instead
>decides he doesn't want the tree and walks off
>manager comes out 20 minutes later
>asks me what happened, not sure what he's talking about
>tells me some guy came in and told him it was the worst service ever, yelling and screaming that he was going to go to lowes and all this other shit
>realize it was the scissors guy from before
>a grown man got extremely upset that I wouldn't let him rip scissors out of my hand to use to try and cut an indent in a tree
I've got other stories from home depot. I eventually got a new office job, but that only lasted for a month because the manager in that one is a cunt and I had a clashing personality.
>>29708025
really funny, much props.
I'd say you should read this at an open-mic in your city, maybe get a friend to do the different parts or something, I think people would laugh.
>I quit my retail job today.
Feels good.
when i was a weekend wagecuck decades ago in the worst part of my town where almost all the people are on benefits(welfare)
>cashier, convenience store, manager gets fired for stealing and drinking on the job (can't blame him SHIT JOB because of scum custumers)
>get a new manager, but he's an old man near retirement age
>old coot puts a shopping trolley line in a CONENIENCE STORE like a stupid faggot
>only ever 1 cashier
>retarded people start doing big shopping here, even though it's obviously more expensive than a supermarket, full and overflowing trolleys :rolls eyes:
>some stupid bitch rolls up her trolley, filled to the brim with shit and in the middle she had stacked up ALL the cat food tins
>couldn't see how many tins because she had also placed her shopping bags around them
>wasn't going to just believe how many she said, she was planning on leaving them stacked up and taking them to her car with me just scanning 1
>i got tired of these tards so i actually went and lifted up the stacks of cat food and inbetween them were magazines lol
>so i caught her trying to steal basically, she raged and made me call the manager down and said i was rude and couldn't do my job
>a few times on my shift she came and bought cigarettes, and a few other items
>she came back 20 min later and makes me call manager claiming i never gave her, her cigarettes
>old coot manager is 100% retarded and in all the incidents he apologises and either refunds custumer or just gives them the item they claim they never recieved
>old coot bastard then later bothers me about how stock is missing (the stock he just gave to the custumers who claimed they paid for but never took out the shop)
>i quit not long after that, all the chavs started stealing more and exploiting the situation because of the retarded old coot giving like 1950s courtesy to modern, RUDE, THIEVING benefit scroungers and benefit breeder 'single mothers who have never worked a single day in their life
