I'm now working (2nd job)part time as a cashier for a food joint down the road. I don't like it...as much as my current job in hotel work. I'm not sure why, maybe it's working with pple I don't know is getting to me.
Anyway, this all happened on my first day.
Me: Hello.
SC: I want--uh--
Me: Yes?
SC: Uh---um---*flailing arms*
The SC stood there for a while, saying Um and Ah and gesturing wildy so the manager spoke up.
Manager: A burger? You want a burger ma'am?
SC: Yes!
As I was putting in the order, the SC thrusts something at the manager. It was a coupon.
Manager: This coupon is for one free burger.
SC: Yes! I want!
Manager: Okay then.
So the lady gets her burger delivered by the manager and she starts screaming.
SC: What! What!
Manager: This is your burger ma'am.
SC: NO! No!
Manager: You ordered this...
SC: No! I wanted 2 burgers! TWO!
Manager: Your coupon was for one burger.
SC: No! TWO!
The manager walked away from the lady, who was still shouting Two! and throwing us nasty glares. She ate and stormed out.
Tale 2
So while I was still experincing horrible flashbacks about coupons from my retail days, a man and what looked like his two wives walked in. WIth their mess of screaming children. O_o Ehhh.
The man orders wife 1 to order. Keep in mind, both his wives had face covering that made all their speech muffled and wife 1 had a very soft voice.
Me: Hello.
Wife 1: *very very softly* Hi I'd like ten burgers.
Me: Excuse me? Ten?
W1: Yes...
I was practically leaning across the counter to hear her, something she and her husband didn't seem to like.
Husband: *to me* 'ey! *yells something in a foreign language giving me a dirty look*
The manager had to step in. He took the order for 10 very complicated burgers.
Me: *still trying to help* May I have a name for hte order?
W1: *mumble*
Me: Excuse me? Ada Lynn?
W1: No! No!
Yeah it was a headache. How we managed to get them their food is a miracle to me. I don't see why the husband couldn't order, he had nothing on his face.
Tale 3
So I was still training how to use the confusing register and this old crocthety look woman comes in.
Me: Hello.
OCW: Hi, I'd like a burger.
Me: Ok *puts in order*
Manager: *whispers to me* Ask if she'd like cheese on that.
Me: Would you like cheese?
OCW: No, and if you'd stop interrupting me, I'd tell you what I want!
Yikes. Who put washers in her salad?
Not all were like that but I still don't like it....
