How are you today?

[sox-and-the-city]

Big love to everyone who needs it after the past day or so.

My day was going so well until lunchtime came about. The microwave in the stafroom decided not to switch off when the timer ended and i wsn't really paying attention as i was so engrossed gossiping my lunch decided to die on me and was really not palatable at all.

Then i was serving a customer and (as i am contractually obliged) offered her a storecard. And she just went off on one at me, all calling me outrageous and pointing her finger aggressively and then she goes 'YOU'VE asked me four times now...' and i just snapped. Baring in mind i was tired and hungover from thursday night (beer + cider + wine + vodka = OUCH) and she'd then gone on to basically tell me how to sell things to her and how to do my job. went all sassy at her and said that just like when she's at work i'm just one person in a large company doing what i'mI told. I said it's not exactly fun for me having to ask literally every customer to take one out.

Then at the end of the day this unbelievably rude old woman asks me if we have any more of this pair of shoes she's holding and i say i'm not sure and in the time it takes me to breathe in and try to say 'but i can check for you'. She launches intop this big rant about how its not difficult to check and starts savaging me calling me lazy and incompetent so then my manager (who's been standing there watching the whole thing) comes over and stands up for me and tries to sort the situation out and the bitch starts laying into her too, saying she used to be a manager there once upon a time (im guessing thousands of millennia ago before time began) and she used to be a shareholder blah blah blah so she's writing to head office ot complain about me now too...

Why can't people just be nice to someone who's providing them a service?? I may work there, but these women actually SHOP there ffs :frown::frown:
