@cashier-memes
just hold on..one more second…
You are still under consideration
so many men have no idea what to do when confronted with a woman who isn’t putting on a customer service personality
But so many women also don’t turn off their “customer service personality” for a guy when he wants to know the real them.
Maybe you should think about why you scare women.
People keep reblogging this exchange with tags about having witnessed a murder and so on, but the thing is, I wasn’t trying to be performatively snarky here. When I thought about it, I decided that “think about why you scare women” was the most genuine and potentially helpful advice I could give. I did state it relatively bluntly, yes, but note that I did include a hedge word (”maybe”) and did make the graceful assumption that this dude would be capable of self-reflection (I didn’t outright call him a creep; I did allow for the possibility that he didn’t know exactly what he was doing by responding). That this all happened on a post about how men don’t know how to deal with women who don’t hedge their opinions three hundred different ways to make them less powerful makes me want to pinch the bridge of my nose and scream.
Some retail complaints from twitter this morning. I don’t think anyone can fully comprehend how stupid humans are until they work a retail or hospitality job.
I’d like to add on the people who ask a question, get an answer they don’t like and ask the same question in a different way to get the response they want.
I get stuff like this often enough at work, but that last one? There is one customer we have that does that so frequently and for so long (personal record with me is goddamn FORTY MINUTES of trying to get the answer she wanted) that we call her Circle Lady when she isn’t present.
Then there are the ones who do this, fail, and try it again with the same employees the next day.
Me: “For the drink, it’s [x amount] :)”
Customer: “I saw a sign that I get a free drink?”
Me: “For signing up for our rewards program, yes :)”
Customer: “Oh… I don’t have one of those”
Me: “Well if you sign up, you can get the free drink! :)”
Customer: “Eh I don’t want to sign up”
Me: “…” “…” “:)”
Customer: “I hate getting all those emails”
Me: “Oh, well you can opt out of emails, I can show you how :)”
Customer: “No thanks, I don’t want an account”
Me: “Okay… well the drink will be [x amount] :)”
Customer: “I thought it was free?”
Me: “:)”
Me: “It’s free if you sign up for our rewards program :)”
Customer: “I don’t want to sign up”
Me: “Then the drink isn’t free :)”
Customer: “You can’t just give me the drink?”
Me: “No, I can’t unfortunately :)”
Customer: “Why not? It’s only [x amount]”
Me: “If that’s not a lot of money to you, why don’t you just pay for it? :)”
Customer: “This is shit customer service”
Me: “:)”
Customer: “This is highway robbery, squeezing every dime out of people, you should be ashamed of yourself—”
Me: “I don’t control the prices, I’m just a cashier :)“
Customer: “—making a fucking fuss over a damn drink and it’s not even a large—”
Me: “That’s not my decision, I’m just a cashier :)”
Customer: “—and you bet I won’t be coming back here again”
Me: “How unfortunate :)”
I can feel the :) deep in my soul
skfkslckcnelcncn okay I’m at work yesterday and my coworker is telling me about her husband and 2 kids and is bitching and I’m like go. off. because that’s what I do and she says to me “the litter box is HIS responsibility and most of the time he doesnt even do that!!” and I immediately say. “That’s all he does??” because girl just told me she took out the trash and did dishes and cared for her fucking children all before coming into work that morning and shes like “…. that’s not ALL he does……..” like. every time I talk to a girl in a bad relationship a part of me dies. you dont have to be his mom too. he’s not the three year old. he’s not a fucking tamagotchi that if you forget to feed him and wipe his ass he dies in a pile of his own shit. ladies if he dies he dies
Okay so I have a question- do guys who work in retail get creepy people hitting on them too? Or is that strictly a female problem?
Too easy
Wait did someone take this picture without his knowledge?
Yeh. And eventually his ‘fans’ doxxed his gf, and sent her death threats, because I suppose a cute guy is public property.
His family’s phone numbers, address, social security numbers and bank accounts were spread. His employer had to transfer him from the register to the stock, because girls felt it was acceptable to harass him on the job and take unwanted pictures. Not to mention that this all started because some creepy chick felt it was fine for her to sneak a shot of a random dude she didn’t know and post it online.
Apparently obsessive/psychotic behavior is cutesy and funny when girls do it.
What the actual fuck
I…highly doubt that story is true. How can you do all that from just a photo?
It’s true.
we closed 15 minutes ago and this one customer is still shopping and giving us attitude
closed 20 minutes ago and this bitch still has her cart. my manager is getting pissed. 👀
manager changed the announcement from “The store is closed and the registers will be shutting down shortly. Please proceed to the front.” to “The store is closed and registers have shut down. Please exit the building.”
The customer scoffed. I’m about to go fucking feral.
final update bc i just got out: manager actually fucking did it and shut down all the registers. customer got up front and freaked out with the cart. “What am I supposed to do with this!?” the customer shouts. my manager smiles and takes the cart. “don’t worry,” she says “we’ll put it back for you.”
customer stormed out and tried to get the last word in by shouting “you just lost a paying customer!” like….no….because the store is closed…
NPCs in Skyrim just…tell you their whole life story in passing. You don’t even have to talk to them they really just go “my husband was murdered my a mountain troll” and walk right past you
Just like working retail
customer: hi how are you today
me:
Customers will tip you all 11 cents of their change and be like “on a moral level I’m now permitted to hunt you for sport”
LET 👏 RETAIL 👏 EMPLOYEES 👏 SIT 👏
The only major chain retail store that I know of that allows their cashiers to sit is the Aldi grocery store, a German chain. Their starting pay is also $12 an hour chain-wide.
The interior of the store looks like this so they save money on the annoying shelf restocking. Products remain in their boxes until being removed by customers. No unboxing and putting stuff on shelves, and constantly having to rearrange it. Also, the boxes make inventory a breeze as a sealed box has a defined number of items in it.
Typical American grocery stores have shelves like this
Every item has to be unboxed and neatly stacked on the shelves. If they get messed up by the customers, everything has to be rearranged back to specific rigid order. When you have to verify the inventory, every item has to be removed from the shelves to be counted and put back. Aldi’s also do not have plastic bags. You can buy reusable bags or simply use the empty cardboard boxes that are available.
Last is the carts. Most grocery stores have their carts strewn across the parking lots, rolling around and hitting cars until a store employee is sent out to collect them, after being yelled at by the manager when they were told to do other tasks in the meantime. Aldi’s chains those carts together and you have to put a Quarter in to release it. When you are done, you plug the chain back in and get your Quarter back. If others are lazy, you can collect and return the loose carts and collect the Quarters.
It stops this…
Then the employees have to do this
GOD today i served a family of 3 and the dad was like “i’ll have a cappuccino” and the kid, a girl of about 11, was like “PLEASE.” and he was like “uh yeah. please” and the kid goes “well you’re always telling me to remember my manners!!! you should too!!” and i was cracking up
and then she was standing there w her mum while i made their drinks and i asked if the mum wanted chocolate sprinkles and she was like “yes please” and the kid goes “well at least SOMEONE remembered their manners” and then sighed dramatically and HEELYED AWAY and honestly? not sure how to go on knowing i’ll never be as cool as this 11 year old
Hello everyone, life update. I'm sorry I have been pretty hands off on this blog, as my life has been a little crazy for the last couple of months. I quit my job due to the toxic environment about 3 months ago and it's been extremely difficult finding a new job. I applied to dozens of places, and called dozens more, but it seems like everywhere is overstaffed. This has been a huge hit on my mental health and I've been prescribed an anxiety medicine to help with it. There are days where I dont leave the house because why bother? One of the few things that bring me joy is at least helping other people smile. Even if it's just on a retail meme blog even though I have been unemployed since December. It would mean so much to me if you guys want to donate. One donation is completely fine, and will at least help me a bit. Thank you guys so much for sticking around.
