Yesterday I had a young couple come through my line, and they certainly seemed like friendly people. As I was in the middle of their transaction, an employee comes up to me and asks what my schedule is. I continue to work as I think about my schedule, being careful as usual with their stuff. Suddenly they push their cart out of the way and just leave, 
and I am standing there doumbfounded, wondering why they left so suddenly. The other cashier said she heard the lady say, "I am the customer" and then leave. Oddly enough, I did not hear them say anything, hence why I was confused as to why they just left like that.
Ok, so you assholes think you actually have the right to tell me that I cannot talk to someone else and work at the same time? I admit there are a few customers who would actually think it is rude to do so, but the cashier was only at my register for less than 30 seconds before the couple just up and left.
We got pulled into the office later (we were not in trouble, they just wanted to get our stories), and it was then that I told the sups in there with me that these people were making a big deal out of nothing, and that no one was gonna tell me I can't work and talk at the same time. They said according to those 2 customers, their perception was that I didn't provide good customer service, to which I replied these people are obviously idiots, but I could still understand how some people might take it the wrong way, and that I do not wish for a customer to walk away unhappy. Like I said, these people are fucked in the head. There's really nothing I could've gotten into trouble for. I stayed at my register and was doing my job, and providing good customer service, just like I do to every customer who comes through my line. I found out that the other cashier was actually the one to walk away from her register to ask me a question. When they told her that she was in the wrong for doing that, she began to break down and cry, claiming that other cashiers have a tendency to walk away from their registers with the light left on. If these idiots hadn't pitched a fit over something so fucking stupid, she never would've had this conversation with the sups and would not have started crying.
Long story short folks, you don't tell me what I can and cannot do while I am working at my register, so long as I'm doing my job and not doing anything illegal. Do not worry, I will pay attention to you since some of you obviously need me to and feel so insecure about yourself that you feel the need to get mad if I dare to talk to anyone else but you at my register. Again I know this might be considered unprofessional and I always talk to customers who come through my line (I'm known to actually chew someone's ear off sometimes
) but if I talk to someone else for a few seconds, don't be so fucking demanding that I pay attention to you only. You're not 3 years old, people. No I take that back.... There are customers who behave worse than 3 year olds! 
Btw, I know "you are the customer", I can recognize you by your whiny little stuck up attitude bitch.

I could have killed him for that one.
