  • So I am death and other assorted suck

    For some reason it was really, really slow for a Sunday, like a normal weekday. I only really helped two or three customers who sought me out (besides simple, where is the bathroom type questions).

    yes, yes I am death and your a asshole
    I am checking some displays around the store when I get a page to my dept. I head over to see the SC who is standing about 10-15 feet from the counter. I go back wash my hands and approach.

    Me: can I help you?
    SC: Yes, can you slice this bread?
    Me: what bread? (the SC is not holding or pointing to a loaf of bread)
    SC: *CAT BUT FACE* THIS!!!!!!!! THIS!!!!!! BREAD
    Me: the Italian bread, sure. Just hand me the loaf you want. (somehow she missed all the pre-sliced bread near the non-sliced)
    SC: *places loaf in it's bag on the counter, i grab bag and walk to slicer* Whyyyyyyyyyyyy are you NOT gloves!!!! Whhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!????? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!?????
    Me: We are required to wear gloves when handling ready to eat food. Since it is in the bag we are not required to. When I take it out to slice it i will. *i walk over to the sliced put on gloves and place bread in slicer*
    SC: what are you dooooooooooinnnnngggggggggg? You are going to kill me!!!
    Me: Yes?
    SC: You saaaid you would wear gloves?
    Me: I am. *holds up hands, very tempted to hold up selected fingers*
    SC: Ok.

    I slice the bread, while watching the SC give me some evil stare out of the corner of my eye.

    Me: *re-bag bread and had to SC* Here you go.
    SC: You going to kill me. Kill me. I can't believe I, the customer had to tell you to do you job right.
    Me: Ma'am we are required by law to wear gloves at certain times. We are inspected by the local Health Department and Corporate. If you have a issue feel free to cont them.
    SC: Look it you crushed the bread *SC Hold bread in hand and crushes in a ball* whne I tell you how to do you job you screw it up. Slice me another one, the RIGHT way.
    Me: Let me get a manager first.
    SC: Never mind. *stomps off*


    Sorry I helped you

    Since it was so slow the FEM had the cashiers on back shop and cleaning tasks more often than not. When it got busy they would page them back. I head a page for all FE employees to come up. I look and see lines at each register. I also see two customers waking by with only a few items. I ask them if they want me to ring them at my register instead of waiting in line which I almost never do. They both say yes.

    Me: greeting, scans items, tell SC total.
    SC: you know it is rude to not allow a customer to wait in line
    Me: *what do i say to this* Um, well the manager is <name> if you have any isues.
    SC: Oh, I will tell them.
    Me: Ok. Your total is X.XX.
    SC: *swips card, stabs screen with electronic pen, pen flys off* I will tell him that you registers suck too.
    Me: Ok. Here is you receipt. have a great day.
    SC* grabs bag stomps off*

    The second customer comes up, and is very nice. They are thankful i rang them up when I didn't have to and said they would tell the manager that I was very helpful and about the other SC.

            See, I'm very polite about that. I make every single customer wait in line. So I wonder why I haven't gotten any compliments from those customers yet? hm.

              Hell, I had a lady get angry because I went through her purchase too fast!
              Lady, you're buying beads, not a car. There aren't many places for me to suddenly drop in extra costs, like 'undercoating'.
              You bring me beads, I swipe them, you pay and go.

                    This customer ... was she a turtle? Was she whining about how fast Comcast is and how much she prefers DSL from the phone company?

                      Maybe for the next week or so . . . then someone else will come along that'll make those two look sweet and charming . . .

                        Well...I guess I am no longer shocked at the things people will go all "I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS!" over.

                          first SC- holy hell lady, clean hands (he had just washed them) are much more important than gloves, because if you use dirty hands to put on the gloves, guess what, now the gloves are dirty too... there's no point other than to sooth the mass hypochondria that our society suffers.

                          second SC- hell, if it's rude not to let customers wait in line Reams, K-Mart, and Wal-Mart can be as rude to me as they want... please let them be so rude as to not let me wait in line.
