It was very busy today, the majority of service staff were off sick with the flu and they were very sick it's the worst flu epidemic in years and if my staff are ill i don't want them working.
Anyway i was supposed to finish my shift at 3pm, i'm serving in the express checkout when i hear this screaching voice "Is anyone serving smokes here?", I turn around and it's R a regular of ours who is incredibly annoying and rude, but i do feel sorry for her because she has cancer and has been fighting it for years.
I finish serving my customer and go over to R, she tells me what she wants and normally one brand of smokes she gets is kept in the cupboard so i open it to look for them.
R "No no there they are ( randomly pointing her finger at the shelf) I didn't see them right away.
R "THERE THEY ARE YOU DUMB DUMB" ( What are we in kindergarten or something)
Me "R Don't you call me dumb"
R " WELL YOU ARE, YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE DOING!"
ME "Since i don't know what i'm doing, i suddenly don't know how to work this register, so it looks like you're out of luck with those smokes, bye now"
R " You have to serve me, i'm a very sick woman and i need my smokes"( Where's the logic in that statement?)
Me "We have the right to refuse service and because you have insulted me you can get your smokes elsewhere, goodbye"
And with that i walked away, told my coworkers i was clocking off and going home and left R standing there with her mouth open before she gave up and left.
She really has some disgusting habits, if she has an ingrown toenail she'll tell me all about it and then remove her shoe and put her foot on the counter to show me the pus filled infected toe
I have to do it all over again tomorrow
