  • You Can't DO That

    Okay. So if you use a Credit Card and you do not pump gas or the pump resets, the money goes back onto the card after I hit refund. Refund is the only place that transaction can go after you pick up the handle and put it down again regardless of whether or not gas was actually pumped. If it is Debit I can refund it to cash and redo the trans with the cash amount, Credit: No.

    So these two ladies come up, do 50 dollars with a card, it says Master Card so it runs as Credit. They go out, promptly pick the pump up and put it back down. They call in and say the classic "The pump isn't working" I ask them if they picked it up and put it down and they say "yes." Well great. I have to redo the entire trans, you have to come in again and you have to stand in line because there are like 50 people here because it's a Saturday.

    So they do. Well the one starts trying to tell me that you can't put money back on an unemployment card, blah blah blah, well lady, I don't work for the unemployment office, I don't know a damn thing about your card. All I know is that there is a refund receipt for THAT CARD and since the card is a Master Card it should go back on it. Cue the card not having enough money to cover the original amount and they have to use another card.

    Good job, ladies. Next time don't pick it up and put it back down.

    Someone laid a fudge dragon in the urinal. Guess who had to clean that one up?

    A guy cut me off as I was walking into the mens room to clean it. When he came out he told me that I should probably wait to clean it because he "just had chinese."

    A guy thought that the pump could magically pump his gas without him touching it. His math was horrific and he was "absolutely livid." Lemme tell ya buddy, you haven't even SEEN livid until you've met me. I can make you wish I were dead.

    A bird flew into the window of the store and several people were completely oblivious to me trying to move it out of the walking path. (He was fine, just a little disoriented. I got him set up straight and made sure he didn't have any injuries. I have a tiny parrot at home so it wasn't hard.)

    A man who I'd never seen before came in about two burnt pizzas. He said he'd called the store the day before around 3 and spoke to a woman. Well all of us were the same working the day before so I asked everyone. Surprise, there was a resounding "no" across the board. He didn't get any pizzas.

    *phone rings*
    Me: *spiel*
    Caller: We lost a ____. There was a man working the register.
    Me: We don't have any male employees working today.

    Re SC #1: I bet she knew exactly what she was doing, and thought you would give her the cash as a refund.

      lol. it can take a couple days for the refund to go through. It isn't instant. At least with a specific amount, she doesn't have the usual $75-$125 hold sitting there for a couple weeks. (most gas stations and hotels don't release the hold when they put the actual charge through)

        You have my sympathy for the poop men.

        I live at home with my parents. My father pulls a Peter Griffin quite frequently, nearly shoving me over on my way to clean the bathroom to get in there first and drop a huge nasty.

          Well, at least you get good karma points for the dazed bird.

              I can make you wish I were dead.
              Oh come on Gaki, I know you've got way better skills than that. Almost every person I meet makes me wish *they* were dead. I know you have it in you to make someone wish *themselves* dead. Get your head in the game!

                Usually in order to do that I would have to do things that might get me fired so I settle for the other one in the hopes that they'll never come in on my shift again. Or maybe they'll set the store on fire. One can always dream.
