I almost walked out on my second job today.
Some psycho regular customer comes in and goes doctor fucking jekyl/mr. hyde on me, and all my manager can do is get bitchy without even getting the story on the situation.
No apology later when she finally listened either. Just blamed another manager for HER blowing up on me.
The manager who was helping me juggle customers, mind you. Yeah, this was apparently HER fault for not handling it.
Another customer who saw the whole situation came over and said to both of us "I feel so, so sorry for you right now."
I WAS ACCUSED OF STEALING CHUMP CHANGE BY A WOMAN WHO DIDNT EVEN PAY FOR HER OWN ORDER AND BOO-HOO'ED MONEY OUT OF ANOTHER CUSTOMER.
Bitch I didn't steal your fucking charity!
She flipped her shit at me over FOUR DAMN CENTS. IN TAX!
I would've just paid out of my own pocket but no, she was too busy accusing me of having no morals!
Then turned around and tried to say she was "proud" of me for working hard and saying she's been in before and "knows [I'm] not like that"
only to go right back to flipping her shit when I gave her the order total and tried to explain how I'd rung it up. are you fucking kidding me
you had two separate orders you fucking bonehead
I ADDED THEM TOGETHER. You know, basic fucking math??
I even subtracted the damn tax. I verified the pricing with you before I ran the copies. YOU SAID IT WAS FINE YOU FUCKING PSYCHOPATH
So after all that bull shit with the whole front half of the store witnessing this, and the manager being an absolute bitch, I start crying of all things.
I have worked retail copy and print for twelve fucking years now
and I have NEVER been treated like that before by both a customer AND my own damn store manager.
That sounds absolutely terrible
Real late since I passed out before I got these alerts, but thank you for the cuddles. <3
