First, I have to say it was an absolute madhouse at my job today because of all the panic shopping for Hurricane Irene.
I was on Bag Your Own for the first 2 and a half hours of my shift. One of the first women on the line had a huge order that was well over $200. I finish scanning her items but she is only about halfway done bagging and I'm getting a big line waiting now. I give her a few minutes and then decide for the sake of the others waiting to ask her to please pay for her order and then she can continue to bag her items.
Me: Miss if you could please pay for your order and then you can continue bagging.
EW: Well how am I supposed to do that?!
Me: You just have to pay and then you can finish up. I'm getting a big line now.
EW: Well how could you take another customer anyway? I still have all this stuff here!
Me: *She only was using one of the two belts we have for customers to bag* Well there's another belt here the next person would use that.
So finally she scurries out the necessary money from her purse and is just like "alright here!" and hands me it forcibly. I give her the change, receipt, and coupons and then after she finishes bagging she walks off with a catbutt face and attitude.
Other sucks: -People complaining that we had no more of the 24 pack of water that was on sale for $2.99, and then later that we had no more 24 packs at all. With a big sale and hurricane coming, what were you all expecting?
-People complaining we didn't have flashlights. Why don't you have one already?!
-People complaining about being IDed to buy a lighter, including one that didn't have it on her
-Woman on my line said she had no store card and then looked at me cluelessly when I asked if she wanted to get one. Then she only had $110 with her for a $132 order, and preceded to count out her money 4 times like I was lying to her and then take forever looking for more money in her purse and then deciding what she didn't want.
