Yesterday I had a woman demand I get her "a stock boy" to load her stuff in her car. I informed her we only had 2 cashiers and no stockmen to do carry outs, she demanded I close and help her out. Between me and the one other cashier we had 40 people in line. She refuse to put her own crap in her cart and knocked her gallon of tea on the floor and made a huge spill. We had no maintenance so I had to try and clean that too. Luckily a small child from the next line came and helped me load the groceries while her brother helped clean the spill. They were an endorsement for lesbian parents everywhere as their moms told them to help. She was still offended I would not walk her out after all my lane was closed and did I send the stock boy to get her a new tea and I better not have charged her for the broken one. Finally got that cleaned up and she stood there and glared at me as I ha the gall to take customers who had been waiting more than 30 minutes at this point. Then there was the saga of the bathroom bitch. I was on lunch and had to go to the bathroom. Someone took an electric cart in. It is an s shaped hallway into the restroom so that is no small feet but I figured whoever took it in must be able to get it out right? Nope. She wedged it in so we were all trapped. She was screaming and crying and bitching. I told her to pull back in and turn around in the large area by te sink. It would be like a 10 point turn but completely doable and then drive out te way she drove in. Instead she CLIMBED over the scooter and abandoned it wedged in the door. So I did exactly as I told her and got it out. Guess who was waitin outside the bathroom for the scooter and made a huge deal about how I should take her drivers test for her. She apparently just had a c section 2 weeks ago an tore her stitches so she decided to go shopping if that makes any sense. She was there with her dad and apparently offended or annoyed 4 more stockers besides the ones she trapped in the bathroom before she left. There was then the angry little old lady this was livid u date not open up because I was walking away from my very closed register to run a price check in a lady's return. The lady in question claimed a game was 1/3 the price it was scanning and I should give her the difference. No big deal I just have to verify the price on th self matches her claim. So I was already closed when the price error lady came up. I informed my manager where I was going because the old woman was going to bitch.

I've seen a few customers drive a scooter into the restroom and it is never pretty. Most of the time, an employee has to manually lift and drag it back out, because there is no room to maneuver. And every single time the SCs act surprised and angry at the store because it's the store's fault their grand plan didn't work.A lion however, will only devour your corpse, whereas an SC is not sated until they have destroyed your soul.

Quoth bainsidhe View PostYet she decides to CLIMB over the wedged cart? Good grief, guess who she'd blame if/when her actions caused her to further injure herself.

Quoth greensinestro View PostPardon me, but if she could climb over it, why did she need to bring the cart into the bathroom to begin with? I just don't understand people at all.Quoth Monterey Jack View PostExactly. Anyone limber enough to climb over something as bulky as an electric cart obviously doesn't need to use one.

Even my own mother, who has difficulty walking any distance, will leave the scooter outside the door and hobble into the ladies' room (with me helping.)

People often bring their regular carts into the restrooms at work (or at least into the very narrow hallway that leads to them), and it always baffles me...who wants their freshly-purchased groceries in a room that reeks of piss and stale farts? Just leave them outside! I can't think of a single instance in the years I've been working there of a cart filled with groceries getting stolen by another customer.

Quoth Jay 2K Winger View PostNeither did we at the wholesale club, at least while I worked there. My CW CR once told a woman who asked for a cart "because I'm tired" that "The electric carts are for customers with health or mobility issues, not because 'you're tired.'"
There has been an occasion or two last winter that I had to use one for myself when I'd have to go into WM to pick up stuff - when you hurt so bad in your lower back and hips that every single step feels like you're going to fall into the floor, it's a good idea to use one.Human Resources - the adult version of "I'm telling Mom." - Agent Anthony "Tony" DiNozzo (NCIS)
