If you're going to be pissy towards a manager, don't pick this manager.

These women ordered five orders of wings and a pizza. So they come in, and the one is like, "here's my money for one of the wings and the pizza." Now, I'm a little dismayed b/c they didn't mention on the phone that they wanted the stuff on seperate tickets, and now I have to do a bunch of crap to divide it up. So I wasn't thrilled - but I wasn't mad, just dismayed. Anyway, the woman said "Yeah, seperate. Just do it, that's your job." So this threw me, and I tried to explain that I wasn't mad or anything, just confused. Anyway, I thought it was cleared up and went to fix it all and she did it again. "Yeah, go over there and do. That's your job, isn't it?" So I told her not to talk to me like that (nicely) and she got pissed, said for me not to talk to her like that, and demanded her money and left.

Then her friends paid for their own food (and had that "sorry she's such a whore") look on their faces. So that was my adventure for the night. My workers were snickering, and the last hour we had no orders at all. Verra easy Sunday.

That is my #1 all time pet peeve. "it's your job, isn't it?" HATE THAT PHRASE!!!

I used to work at a K-Mart, so you can imagine the stuff I had to hear...
The best was when I had to talk a co-worker down from screaming at a customer. Some woman and her husband are in the toy dept, and she knocks a bunch of stuff off an overhead. This while we were trying to clean up the area...her husband starts to pick the stuff up and she says, "That's why they're here", motioning at us. I thought Bob was going to kill this woman, thankfully her husband informed her she was being a shithead...

As I got out of my teens and more cynical at customers, I'd usually just ask people like that what time they'd be home, because they obviously needed me to come over and pick up after them there too.

Dumb Bitch

Dumb bitch... you should've pissed in her chicken wings and told her it was a new sauce.

People are RIDICULOUS... you never believe it until you've actually WORKED in retail.

Man.

I bet Kmart got far worse than my little pizza place. The woman was seriously that obnoxious? At least her husband had some sense.

That is hilarious.

Yup, that's why I am no longer capable of even thinking of working in retail. In the military if I don't keep my mouth shut when officers are stupid, I get written up.. in retail, I'd have to tell them to fuck off.

K-Mart was my proving ground in life to see if I could deal with total morons, jerks and complete bastards. It taught me how to openly insult people in such a way that they almost thank you for it.

*snerk* You sound like my brother. I've seen him call people complete and total dipfucks to their faces and they miss it completely. Later they like to come up and tell me how cute my little brother is...

Yup, that's me. It prepared me for such things as irc and livejournal...

Doesn't sound like you much care for either. Never got into irc, it's more than I can stand with aim and messenger to deal with.

I used to irc constantly. Now I might irc for an hour or so once every few weeks. I only got on LJ because I was stalk.....er talking to my now wife.
I wish I could just give up on LJ, but the plus side of RSS feeds far outweigh the having to talk to actual people...
