Important Notice for Customers
Ok I wish I didn’t have to type this but here we go. I am sure many of you I am not personally addressing with this because you are decent human beings. However unfortunately the past week has been proof that not everyone is like that.
I have had two separate incidents within the space of a week where I have had to defend one of my colleagues. The customers both times have also wanted me to serve on tills while I have been doing other tasks. Now if it is busy I will of course make the tills my priority but both times it wasn’t. It has been sheer refusal to be served by my colleague and them seeing me as the only other option. This hasn’t been due to my colleague’s actions or way of serving customers. It has been due to people’s discrimination against their race of beliefs.
This isn’t right in any shape or form!
If it was something the colleague had said and done I wouldn’t have minded so much, believing that people are responsible for their own actions. However this was not. I, like pretty much any retail worker, am NOT going to tolerate racism or any other kind of discrimination towards either my colleagues or other customers. Workers don’t get paid to deal with your closed mind and hate. People don’t deserve hate just for existing.
Lets all be humans and respect each other or might be better to stay silent
and if all else fails remember...
We have the right to refuse service and aren’t afraid to both use that and report you
