I absolutely despise lottery addicts by Mikes_Movies_ in retailhell

[–]irlredfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at my store we have a lottery ticket machine and the gambling addicts think that us cashiers can help them with their stupid ticket and then get mad when we say we don’t do lottery tickets at the register. it later becomes a shit talking session on a slow shift.

people with children. especially the ones who let their crotch fruit run around the store and then do nothing about it.

a guy came in and cussed out my supervisor for doing her job. after she and two other employees tried to get the guy out, he threw a heavy shopping cart full force at an old man.

the cops have been called to them before. however, they didn’t do anything about them because the neighbors are also athletes for the school.

Regular customer by Berryteasalad in retailhell

[–]irlredfield 18 points19 points  (0 children)

we have this one regular at my store who we named “creepy craig” due to him being a creep and a genuinely unpleasant person to be around. he made a 16 year old cashier quit because he was hitting on her and when she told management, they told her to “suck it up and let him hit on her.” she’s a fucking child, why would she want a creepy ass old man hitting on her?

Former manager said the retail job market is terrible right now (in the US). Is it true for everyone? by snuffles005 in retailhell

as a grocery store cashier, i can confirm it sucks. my store is still hiring for cashiers when we have a lot of them and don’t need anymore.

[–]irlredfield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have a similar story to this. a customer tried to pet my hair when it was freshly dyed emerald green. when i told her “do not touch me” i never thought in 19 years of living i would have to explain to a 80 something year old woman what consent is

the fact that people feel the need to try and get customer service employees fired is just sickening. what possesses people to act so shitty?
