*deep breath*
Customers who would bark "MARBOREDS!" at me or grunt "NEWSPAPER!"
Customers who thought they were too good to wait, and would budge in line and try to dangle 50 cents or a dollar in front of my face when I was clearly in the middle of a transacation and in no spot to open my till and ring up their stupid newspaper. I'd ignore them, they'd clear their throat, I'd ignore more, they'd grunt, I'd ignore, and they'd eventually either throw the money at me or leave it on the counter and flounce off.
Likewise, customers who refused to wait, and either just a newspaper or an event amount of gas and would just walk in and throw their money somewhere in the middle of a huge rush. After a huge rush, I'd see a ten and a twenty dollar bill on the end of the counter or a five laying right by my till and two dollars worth of quarters piled up next to the gas money. Then I'd look on my screen and see even amounts of gas I hadn't rung up yet. Well, how NICE! Look bitches and assholes, this is a small store, it's easy to tell when it's slammed, if you don't want to wait two seconds to pay for gas or a paper, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!
Customers who would flop their credit card on the counter or throw money at me.
Likewise, customers who would walk in and cram their money in my hand or just give me their credit card or cash, and stare at me blankly, then get all upset and go "MARBOREDS!"
Customers who played "the game". They'd first ask for a pack of "Marboreds" (yes I know it's Marb Reds or Marlboro Reds, I'm a smoker myself, but people are too stupid around here to pronounce anything right) and then as soon as I rung it up they'd go "NO! I said MarbLIGHTS!" and then I'd get lights and then they'd go "DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME? I SAID ULTRALIGHTS!" and rinse wash repeat, then they'd bark "NOOOO! 100s!!!!" Seriously, I hope all those people had a burning house collapse on them.
Customers who treated the parking lot like Nascar training roads. Your piece of shit 1979 F-150 is NOT impressive. That diesel truck needs power steering fluid, and for the love of God, WHO THE HELL puts spinner rims on an early 90s Corsica?! Who the hell gets their jollies off by peeling out of parking lots?
People who tried to steal ice. It was especially funny when from inside I could hear people rattling the doors which were paddlelocked shut. HAHAHAHA!
People who made a HUGE mess of the coffee area. Honest to gosh the sugar goes in the COFFEE! The counter doesnt need to be any sweeter. Spill something? PLEASE TELL ME! How immature do you have to be, to be 45 and destroying a coffee area?
People who would walk in like zombies but would freak out "COFFEE? COFFEE! WHERE'S THE COFFEE?!! IT BETTER BE FRESH! I NEED COFFFFFFEEEEEE!"
Lotto whores. ENOUGH said. Scratch scratch scratch, make a mess of my counter, scream at me for selling you a losing ticket, refuse to wait in line, throw your losing tickets at me....yeah, thanks a lot. I work so hard to pay for your Social Security checks and this is what you spend it all on? What a waste.
People who would walk in, grab a soda, put it on the counter. I'd try to ring it up, but they'd waltz away, and grab some chips. Then waltz away and go get beer. Then waltz away and go get candy.......use a basket or wait until you're DONE to do this!
Carding............I won't even go there. I WILL NOT.
Ok sorry that was way too long but damn I'm so happy I'm never working at a gas station again.
