So I think I'm gonna have a major bitch moment.
Rant 1:
I work in a supermarket, known as 'M'
I work on self service a lot now, which are right by the entrance, so whenever it's windy they start to play up, not to mention they are pretty terrible systems anyway. So I'm there at 8am on a monday morning, it's already very busy and I'm running around trying to help the different customers on the SS and sort their problems out. All the while, other foreign customers who are unable to speak English are sitting there poking me and yelling at me, calling out "assistante" etc when I've already told them they have to wait two minutes while I help another customer. Urgh, I cant wait to leave this store.
Rant 2:
Working in the tobacco kiosk briefly one day, an elderly italian guy who struggles to understand me comes along and asks for a size of tobacco and brand that we don't sell, and when I explained this he starts claiming that another person who works in the kiosk and who has apparently worked in that store for two years was able to get some... this in a store that has been open for only six months. where I have been for the past seven months. God I hate customers like that.
Rant 3:
Rude People. This one drives me mad. it's very common amongst elderly people I've found although it can be anyone these days,a. I make every effort to be nice, polite and helpful the entire way through and many of them will just completely blank you, or just make everything more difficult. Example: I opened three bags for a lady while she unpacked her basket, she comes to the end, looks at the open bags, screws them up and starts opening more bags that she'd taken from the till next to us. I'm sitting there thinking Christ almighty? Others will just snatch their change, or put the cash right out of reach. so you have to physically get up and move around to pick it up.
I sometimes wonder about the human race when this stuff happens...
Edit: Negged four times for this.... wow someone doesn't like me
