Abuse of service/retail workers is not okay!

Recently, I got screamed at by two women and told to ‘shut the fuck up’ because I told them their card didn’t go though (thier fault using the payment system tbh. Stupid chip readers) and that they still needed to pay. They later went on to say that I’m a racist and how dare I tell them that they need to pay.

HOW. IS. THIS. ACCEPTABLE. BEHAVIOR. FOR. ANYONE!?

We may be here providing you a service but, that does not mean you can verbally assault and make false accusations.

Has this happened to any of you and how did you handle it?

Having avpd and being a perfectionist is one hELlrIdE at work, like I’ll overcompensate and overanalyse every movement I make and sometimes talk WAY too much in fear that this customer I see for literally 2 minutes will hate me... but then I fear that I was TOO nice and that they are annoyed by me and I CANT WIN OKAY BRAIN STFU!!!

Uncaring bosses are the worst

So my friend is at the hospital right now because her throat was closing up and she couldn't breathe properly. They think it might be strep so she's just waiting for results right now. She's already called in to work saying she won't be able to come in because of this and work just said "you're still coming in, we'll just put you on scan and go." I am so pissed off right now. Strep is so freaking contagious it isn't funny and we work in a retail store where children come in every single day and they're forcing her to come in. Its infuriating. And apperently they've done the same thing to another cashier who had strep.

When a customer tells you to smile

when you’re busy, down 4 cashiers and lines into the isle.

You’re lucky I even had time to say ‘hello!’ to you. You had a good 10 minutes in line and THATS what you had to say.

A declined card is not the store's fault

So I had this older gentleman come through my till and tried to pay by credit card. The card was declined and when I told him this, he had this really annoyed look on his face. So I asked if he had another card he could try and he asks "why would it say it's declined". I shrugged and told him that we aren't told why, we just get a message saying declined. So he pays by cash and just as he's about to leave he says "someone is going to hear about this" in a really threatening voice like he was going to go to management about it. So I looked at him and told him if a card is declined, it's a problem with the bank. Not the store.

I'm actually amazed at how many people are quick to blame the store/cashier because their card was declined.

Don't tell me how to do my job

So I had this one lady ask, in a really condescending tone, if I was trained to push the button that movies food down the belt. I had to look at her and get her to repeat herself because I couldn't believe what she was saying. Apperently she was made because I wasn't moving her items down fast enough and everything was "piling up". So I told her there was a button on the other end so she could bring them down too. Not only that but she put her bags right on the end of the belt so if I moved her items down even more, her bags would have fallen and I KNOW that she would have been just as upset if that happened. Like, fuck you lady. Don't tell me how to do my job.
