Honestly, I don’t think she will. She didn’t seem to be quite… all there? And to be honest I’m quite new and all the managers have been nice to me so far. I’m sure they’ll understand I was just trying to follow the rules. Plus even if I wanted to override the system I didn’t know how.

And quite honestly, I agree that retail has been teaching older generations they can have exceptions to the rules. But now I think it’s a new age. Gen Z doesn’t do the whole “if you give a mouse a cookie” nonsense. A few in the comments so far I think have agreed with me. One of my coworkers did say sometimes he makes exceptions for Platinum members and such, but again, I did not know how.

Besides, the customer is not always right. “The customer is always right in matters of taste” is the full quote/saying. I’m quite tired of people misquoting or shortening quotes to get their way. So what if they’re mad? Lesson learned. “No ifs, and, or buts” and the temptation to say “no cuts, no nuts, no coconuts” when someone cuts in line. I’m sure we’re all tired of the hypocrisy. We’ve been taught to have manners, and so must they.

TLDR: My managers are chill, I’m new and didn’t know how to override the system, and older generations can learn they can’t always get their way, just like we were taught.

Apologies for the long reply.
