Annoying customers

To be quite honest with you, if you expect gentlemanlike behaviour and to be treated like a "girl", you should also give up your education and work and be a stay-at-home mum like a good girl.

I'm all for equality, but not the two-faced kind that says "girls should be paid equally but men should still hold the doors open and pay for dinner" if you know what I mean.

Totally agree. You should hold doors open for everyone (within reason - don't wait 5 minutes for the next person coming through the door!)

No. Women should treat men merely as other people who are just like them - not use any sort of "power" over them. And men should do the same.

You are a disgrace to equality and the feminist cause that women died for.

Actually? I just thought about your responses, and I realised that it was conceited of me to say that women have "power over men". I realised that I only feel bad because I don't like having to do as I'm told, without any arguments, by many of the people at work. The surprising thing is that the majority of those mistreated at work are female...

Hmmm... it's given me food for thought. But eitherway, I'd like to apologise to any of the men I may have offended by comment.

I guess it's different at your work place than "normal".

I had a customer a few months back but i have never wrote about him on here.
Its more weird than annoying. But a bloke ordered 2 big mac meals. I got his drinks and big macs and put them on a tray. I said that i was just going to get his fries. Then i went and did his fries (i was in view- so he could see what i was doing). Then i went to the till with his fries and he wasnt there. He had gone and took his tray of food/drinks with him. I looked round the store but couldnt see him. you always get fries with meals- plus i told him i was doing his fries- but he had gone. He was never seen again- he didnt come back for his fries or anything.
I mentioned what had happened to the manager who was there- just in case he did come back though. But he never was seen again. Strange.

Chivalry.

Bitches love chivalry.

That comment sounds like a legend that will be told for generations.

I don't know why....I can just picture an old man with a large beard sitting in a rocking chair, smoking a pipe and telling his curious grand children the story of the Big Mac Man.

".....and that, my little ones, was when he vanished. He was never heard from again"

Oh god, some people are retarded. And I wouldn't mind if they weren't so rude.

A woman comes up to the till with lighting fluid. me:"hello love" - her:"yeah" - "would you like a bag" - "yes" *angry grumble* "that'll be 1.49 please" - "no" - "sorry?" - "it's a pound" - "okay, would you point me out to where you got it from?" we walk over to the gardening isle, where there's an empty spot. she points at the price ticket, and it says "slug killer" on it. "oh, sorry, i'm afraid someone must have randomly placed it in the gardening section, i can assure you we don't sell lighting fluid in this section" - "i don't want it then" *angry stare* aaaaaaand she leaves.

I mean fair enough you might be having a bad day, but manners don't cost anything. It really irritates me when people don't say yes please to a bag, just "yes", I don't know if that's overreacting?

I have so many customers that don't even react when I speak to them. I'll say hello, would you like any bags etc, and they'll just walk over, and not even say hi. I had a woman today smile and point at the school's vouchers we're doing, without saying a word. So ****ing patronising!

Yeah, I mean I have customers coming in that really are deaf, but surely not that many? Plus the 16-year-olds with loads of make-up and fake tan that talk to their friends on the phone (or in person) and just throw their shopping on the counter... I don't even bother with those girls anymore, I just stick everything in a bag and wait until they give me their money. I mean, they don't even look at you for a second!

Don't get me started on people that put their money down and not into my hand! If I see someone's paying cash, I always put my hand out, but so many people just put it down onto the counter. I find it really difficult to pick up, cause I have really short nails. My response is normally to do the same back to them with their change. I had one woman put down her cash in pieces onto the counter, I put my hand down in the way so that she would put it into my hand, and she just moved where she was putting the money onto!

The thing I never get with deaf customers is that they don't carry a pen and paper on them.
Trying to find a pen at work is pretty difficult, especially when it's busy and tbh if I was death I'd probably always carry at least a pen on me in case I desperately needed to tell somebody something.

AGREED!
I always hold my hand out for the cash...I reckon some people must think "Who knows where his hands have been! I'll just put it on the counter instead" .. well I'm touching your food love...
