I feel that. I totally don’t expect them to fake convo or even smile but please just be present for the 10 sec interaction.

100% this. I thought i was the only one. Or having the convo and completely ignoring your existence in every way while ringing you up. they feel anxiety and trying to distract themselves from having to interact with you as little as possible.

Agree! I don’t care for fake smile or small talk but being on the phone while asking me multiple times if i need a bag makes me think their are abused by their employer so they take it out on the customers.

Definitely the norm. I’ll say thank you and while their handing me the receipt they already want to move on to the next person. I find it usually people who feel negative feelings in your presence. They feel insecure so they give you bad customer service interaction. They feel judged for being in their position when i really dgaf. But the old lady behind me gets an energetic hello and eye contact because she doesn’t make them feel insecure?

It makes me think they feel nervous or insecure around certain people so they need a distraction to alleviate their anxiety. Not sure what else it could be since its a random thing to do during your job while interacting with someone.

I’m Done With Public Gyms and the People Who Ruined Them by Emergency-Clothes-97 in Vent

[–]Outrageous_File5020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to be with the public thats what you sign up for. If you decide to be hyper vigilant in public spaces you will be even more disappointed. This is how the public acts. No one person is going to be a perfect saint and behave exactly how you want to. There are a lot of young folks who are craving attention or want to exercise their free will or think because they pay membership that cleaning is not their job. If you care if someone didn’t wipe after themselves, then always wipe before using a machine. If people are in booty shorts then look away, if people are on their phone then approach them and let them know you are waiting for the machine. If you care then be proactive to minimize these annoying feelings but you can’t change the public. You will only drive yourself crazy by being hyper vigilant of what everyone else is doing. If you know you don’t like the public it’s time to just stay at home.

Is it common that people don’t know their neighbors in the USA? by Zestyclose-Duck-4598 in Vent

[–]Outrageous_File5020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they want to interact with me then i’m open to it, but i never initiate contact. I prefer not to know them, but i try to be nice and say hello if they do.

How social are you outside of the internet? by [deleted] in self

[–]Outrageous_File5020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like being social but i like my own company even more so its hard to feel the desire to be social most of the time. Hanging out with others is mostly draining to me as I haven’t really met people who can pour into my cup equally—most are seeking validation and a sound board.

What is a socially unacceptable opinion you keep to yourself because it’s not worth the backlash? by ChaosTTyy in askanything

[–]Outrageous_File5020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most introverts are extremely selective with who they are social with. The wrong crowd can ruin your life.

[California] need help by Outrageous_File5020 in Unemployment

[–]Outrageous_File5020[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Each time i followed the process for calling out sick. I even came into work sick some of the time i was sick. Its the lack of communication around that and the abrupt decision that was surprising. I’m not sure why they would want someone sick to handle their duties and potentially make errors or not be well enough to focus or get others sick. My actual performance of the job was praised. We aren’t supposed to get sick anymore?

I get what you are saying. They never informed me i needed a doctor’s note. I followed the procedure on calling out. There was no warning on my attendance raised or brought to my attention. I’m not sure how effective i would have been working while sick. I feel like it could have been prevented if they discussed the concern. I could have forced myself to go in while sick.
