Wow my terrible front end coach looks real startled in her new mug shot.
Tonight was a Cashier's Second Worst Nightmare. Every single register started a reboot process at once. All of them. Some of them came back immediately. They went black then came back with the transactions still in tact. Others went down for fifteen to twenty minutes.
And of course it was during our busiest time of the day when everyone's headed home from work. I was on the self-check so I kept having to redirect people away, saying they were broken. I felt the heat of many a glare.
Dear sir, Your telling your kids to fuck off and other such curses is why I have bastardly ten year olds cussing me out in Trouble In Terrorist Town. You set a shitty example and should be ashamed of yourself. I hope your kids realize you’re a douche. And yes I was glaring at you. Don’t give me that look.
For about 15 minutes at self-check today, I was wearing a rubber duck on my head. Just because I could. And two people asked me, "Did you know you have a duck on your head?" One was serious; the other just kidding around. But honestly, of course I know I have a duck on my head.
Fourty minutes of overtime. And they’ll expect me to cut it during my next shift so they don’t have to pay me for it. Fuck ‘em. I’m getting my money.
Why did I get overtime, I hear you ask? Well, someone fucked up the schedule bad. At 6, when I was scheduled to leave, there were two long lines open plus the tobacco register and self check where I was. The person on the tobacco lane can’t just shut down, nor could the two long lines plus one didn’t even get her last break.
There was no one to take over my area. Fuck. You. Assholes.
ETA: May I point out that this is during our county fair which is billed as "The World's Greatest" county fair and a lot of people from other states RV out here just to go to it. Every year we get over 300,000 visitors in a town of only 11,000 people. And you're only going to have three registers and self check open just before the grandstand shows start? Idiots.
Today is a day of smells. One of the soda coolers by the self check smells swampy and the manager of our Subway burned the popcorn. Gross combo.
FUCK YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU STAND FOR.
Now that I got that out of my system: the story.
Pocket hoses are really cheap, shitty products that only withstand 80psi. Which means all these old people who are trying to use them to powerwash or their water pressure is just too damn high make them bust. Or they're defective around the connectors. We get tons of them back all the time.
The rest is under this cut because of INSECT PHOBIA INDUCING THINGS. SPECIFICALLY: ARACHNAPHOBIA
