Unfortunately being a cashier means being a part time hostage negotiater & therapist.

ok so I'm a cashier and it's getting really frustrating when customers don't put their meat in the little meat produce bag thingies. Girl, that shit LEAKS, and here I am, chicken fluids all over my conveyor belt and seeping into the rubber to give it the texture and smell of semi-frozen sweat, laying my face at the end to slurp it up like some demented stationary pac man because I don't like my station being dirty

and all you had to do was put it in a bag. for shame.

Me: *sanitizing the debit machine after a customer used it*

Random man: you’re gonna make a great little cleaner for your husband someday :)

My coworker, who believes the covid vaccine changes your DNA, openly admitted wanting forge vaccination papers so she doesn't have to wear a mask anymore...

Who do people tell me these things like I'm just going to agree w them!????

Also faking a govt seal is illigal!

When you get promoted from sales associate to shift lead in the two months you’ve worked for the company and you only get a tiny raise of 25 cents

Holy fuck.

If you're the kind of customer that complains or feels "disrespected" by a cashier sitting down instead of standing, just know that I hate you and I hope you step in a handful of sharp Legos every single morning

Working in food service is so surreal because like... nothing I do for people is anywhere close to life and death, but some customers absolutely act as though it is. I look a woman dead in the eye and solemnly inform her that unfortunately we are out of oat milk, and I see her heart shatter in front of me, right there at the bakery counter at 8 in the morning. I feel like a handsome TV surgeon informing someone that their beloved fiancée died on the table. He’s gone... I’m so sorry. We lost him. We are out of oat milk

Had a dream that was too real:

I was working my retail job, and our fire alarm went off.

We had to, obviously, evacuate the building.

On my way out, I still had to stop SEVERAL TIMES to tell customers to stop shopping and get out!

Damn dream customers were ignoring this loud bell and just carried on putting stuff into their baskets.

Quick psa

If you've ever given a customer a different drink than that diet/zero sugar/no milk they asked for on purpose , your a POS and need to quit.

People have dietary restrictions you need to respect 🙃

As someone who works in retail, let me tell you that it is exactly like this. Its been over a year of this pandemic and people still do shit like this all the time.

It's ALWAYS that nicest managers that seem the coolest who have the most insane outbursts over something small 👁️👄👁️
