    Next time someone mistakes you for someone who works there turn it around on them. After the third Excuse me do this, "Oh good finally someone who can help me god the service in this place is terrible I am tempted to complain to your supervisor in fact why don't you go get your supervisor right now!....." (other person protesting that they don't work here) "Don't lie to me I know you work here you were obviously coming to help me and took your damn time about it well maybe I won't complain this time but come with me I have a lot of shopping to do and your going to help me do it:"


    I bet none of these people are prepared for someone to turn it around.
    Oooooooh, you're evil! I like that in a person! I esp. like the "Don' lie to me" line, since SCs always seem to think that people working in a store lie to them about everything.
    On the other hand, looking for help in a huge store can be annoying; on the third hand, being constantly asked "Can I help you!" is just as bad; on the forth hand, being a SC about it is not acceptable as well.

      I always ignore people when I am off the clock...(unless its a bonafide life threatening emergency) like the time I did when my friend was taking me out to lunch...this guy kept whistling and saying "Here girl *whistle* Here girl *whistle whistle*" My friend said I think he's talking to you." My reply?

      "Uh...What do I look like Scooby Frickin Doo?" That's a dog!!!!" we both walked away. The guy left but when we came back a co-worker said the customer was so PISSED it would make the toughest drill sargent piss his pants and cry.
      NEVER underestimate the stupidity of the customer

        Love it!!

        Seriously, though...wtf did HE have to be pissed about? People like this mystify me. Bad enough when a customer acts up and gets called on it and shuts up, but to actually get *pissed* because you didn't allow him to call you like a dog?? Damn...that's just low.

            Thankfully most people in my store have a spine.

            Recently, on my lunch break, I was bullshitting with another coworker who was off the clock, in front of the deli counter. We weren't behind the counter, standing in front of it with all the other customers waiting for someone to slice some cheese.

            Our dress code is simple - t-shirt/shorts/pants, but we have to wear a company apron with the company logo. NEITHER of us had the apron on, but apparently said bitch recognized us as employees.

            "EXCUSE ME, are you going to keep talking or help me?"

            Coworker, who happens to be in upper management, turned around and told her "Talking. We're off the clock and not in uniform, those people over there are in uniform and can help you *points*" and turned back around to me and picked up the conversation again.

            Also, he had never worked that dept, I haven't worked it in nearly 3 years.
