Last night I was working in the stand. This lady comes up and asks me for fresh popcorn right out of the popper. I already hate having to do that because the popcorn in the warmers is kept hot and fresh (the heat lamps do a great job and I very rarely hear any complaints) but I do it anyway.
So I walk around to the back of the popper, grab a bag, and fill it up. I bring it to her, and she looks at me a little funny.
SC: Is this fresh?
Me: Yes Maam, I got it right out of the popper.
SC: Why did you have to go back there?
Me: To get fresh popcorn for you.
SC: Yes, but why do you have to go back there to get it?
Me:
Those are where the empty bags are, Maam.
She gave me a strange look, and I just kept a smile on my face, completed my transaction, and she went away. Looking back, if we could do what we want without getting into trouble, I'd have tossed the popcorn in her face and tell her where she can shove it.
Here I am providing great customer service, and they think they have the right to question me?
Well guess what people? You don't have that fucking right! I'm the one working in the stand, and I know where to get stuff and how to get it. So why don't all you fucking shitheads just shut your fucking mouths and let me do my job?! Who the fuck cares where I got the popcorn from, as long as you got your fresh popcorn like you asked?! I could've snapped my fingers and made it appear out of thin air! Or I could've pulled it out of my ass! (Ok I admit that'd be disgusting but I'm mad) And btw
sorry for that, but this lady really made me mad. It almost makes me wonder, "What's the point of trying to make people like this happy if all you do is get questioned about your integrity?"
