My steady paycheck job is helping manage a small grocery store. So how do you think I feel? I typically work away from the customers but that is small comfort.
Those four weeks of vacation are looking mighty tempting right now...
And yes people are being utter assbags, even in a smaller store such as this. Can confirm.
I was at the store and of course I pick the one with the older lady that can barely get through life. She was in her 50-60's. Smelled awful. Couldn't count. Incredibly disrespectful. She counted her 45 cents out or whatever it was, then she said here is the 45 cents, and the cashier said no it's 65 cents. So she had to count her pennies again. Then she was 3 cents short. All hell broke loose. She tried to put it on her foot stamp card and it declined. Then she tried some other card that was declined. Then she said 'I'll come back and give you 3 cents, let me go' but the cashier was like, 'what do you mean "let you go"' so she said it again, "I'll come back, let me go" and the cashier again said "what do you mean 'let you go?"'. Then they both got mad -and everyone else in the line- and the cashier started asking for change from the other cashiers. Nobody had 3 cents. So then the lady said, all this over 3 cents? and she said fine, take something off then. So the cashier said, "well what do you want to take off" so then the lady started digging through bags... and finally a cashier came over and said here, put it on my card, after she saw the 5 minute checkout for a 30 dollar purchase.
The lady didn't thank anyone. Was pissed off about the 3 cents and after she was putting the bags back in her cart she took out she was dropping stuff all over the floor and cursing.
People have lost their damn minds out there.
