BG: Today was MOBBED. Holy hell. When it gets like this, I have to play referee. Which means that I have to limit the amount of certain types of machines people use. Come in on a slow day, and you have your pick of machines. Not so today. Our biggest sellers are the giants, and the smallest washers.
SC: YOU know who!
SCH: SC's douchey husband who only seemed to know how to yell
Me:
I notice that they are taking up 3 small washers out of a total of 8. All the rest are taken and we still have people pouring though the doors. I also notice that they have two washers set to the same cycle: warm.
Me (to SC): Are you washing those two on the same cycle? If so, you can take those two and combine them into one of our mid-sized washers (which were plentiful at the time), and it's the exact same price.
SC looks at me like I spoke Greek. I try again.
Me: Are you washing those two both on warm? (I looked at the dial)
SC: They're cold!
SCH: WHY ARE YOU WASHING THEM COLD??!
(They start to bicker)
Me: You can combine them for the same price and free up two machines. (SC gives me catbuttface like how dare I tell her what machines to use.)
Me: Well, it's very busy in here..
They continue bickering and making a huge production out of removing their shit from the machines and heading down to the mids. Oh well, at least they are doing it. I get occupied for a moment. A few minutes later, SC is huffing and fuming, carrying a basket of clothes back to the small washers.
SC: "For your information, these could NOT all fit in there!"
It was then that I noticed that they had taken ALL 3 loads and tried to stuff them all in ONE mid-size. I tell her that I meant only the two loads. She rolled her eyes and waved me off. She remained pissy the entire time.
Sorry, but it's not my fault you:
1)decided to do your laundry when everyone in the Tri State area decided to too. If crowds piss you off, come some other time
2)were too busy fighting with your husband to LISTEN to what I was telling you***
3)you take me just doing my job making sure all my customers get a fair shake SUPER PERSONAL. You weren't the only one I was refereeing today!
***Bonus Not-Listening Suck! As she was leaving (she only had to wash) I noticed that she had finally simply transferred her two smaller loads into TWO midsize machines, rather than combine them like I said. What a waste! Not listening cost them an extra four dollars, folks!
EXTRA PS BONUS! I had to ask another lady to remove her stuff right away because someone was waiting for her washer. Sometimes, people can get testy about this, too. But she was cool about it. I thanked her VERY much, and told her I appreciated her help during the crazy time, right within earshot of SC!
