but he was fukkin old and had no balance and couldnt bend over. so i just keep trying to coach him on how to do it and his wife is getting up set.
meanwhile he's trying to shove his fat drumstick into the boot and as he's doing it, flakes are starting to get peeled off from his leg and are getting on the boot and on the floor
and now his wife is like "help him! :damn: " and making a scene, so my manager comes over and is like what's going on here?
and his wife says "he's being real rude and unhelpful and refuses to help my husband :damn:"
manager looks at me like wtf man u really not gona help him?
and im like :manny:
she's like "help the customer put the boots on"
and im like :camby: "look at his skin. i need gloves :beli:

they sent me home and wrote me up

Motorcycle financing:

Cust: I wanted to see if I can get financed for a motorcycle

Me: Okay we can do that. Do you have an idea what your credit is like?

Cust: Fine with just a few dings

15 min later.........

Report comes back with bankruptcies, late/slow/missed payments, all kinds of collection activity

Me: I'm sorry but at this time the application was denied

Cust: Ok, what if I put 60% down.

Me: Unfortunately the credit is still going to be an issue.

In my head I'm thinking "why don't you put 60% into those past due bills that are stacking on your report". For those that don't know, motorcycles, atv's, dirt bikes, utv's, jetski's, and any other fun type vehicle is considered a luxury item to a bank. They consider a house or a car a necessity item, easy to get financed as you need these items, if your slacking on payments for one of these items, they are not approving you for luxury items.

Black Friday is the worst day in retail, ever.

Between people fighting over sh!t they don't need & them not knowing how direct-deposit works.

Customers come in an pick out tv's, stand in line at 4am, get mad when their credit-card get declined because they forgot that their direct-deposit doesn't go in till 7am.

What is it with women acting so immature when u go above say $8 in singles when giving them change....maybe its just me but that is childish shyt...

not all get straight up mad...but more often than once when your taking them out the draw you see the uncomfortable smile or some weird response like "singles?" Or "dont have any fives"? Yes I keep the fives hidden for my fav customers :comeon:

This is something im surprised you guys who work/worked the cashier position have not brought up....the whole thing is just so odd to me......like how do u complain about having too many singles? :wtf:

Use them for change for laundry....buy a drink....add it to the money you save up from stripping....save them for future toll booths when your traveling through and out of New York....use them at the dollar store....I mean :mindblown:

Am I missing something?

For real they need to grow up over the singles thing





second of all we need to discuss these "I dont want alot of bags" people...

u have 2solutions

1. Go bag your own shyt at other registers

2. Look at me while im bagging and tell me if you want anything else in there ans not after I turn it because u were looking at the screen and not paying attention

Especially when you throw things up on the belt disorganized

My stories usually come from seeing people bytch. I hate thte moment when you see somebody complain.
This happened to me a few weeks ago. I decided to hit up wendy's to get some bacon burger mushroom heart attack madness they were advertising, i was by myself but gave less then a fuk because i was just planning on shoveling the meat into my gullet and leaving. In Canada, almost everybody at a wendy's or a KFC is old and dying for whatever reason, but it's usually a bonus because everything is always so clean. So im sitting there eating and there is this old couple infront of me. Right off the bat im fukking with my phone so i catch the old zombie give me this look like "what you can't eat with the phone in your hand" so im already on some

bytch leave me alone

after like 5 minutes i hear her husband wimpering about something then he goes up to the counter and starts complaining about his hamburger or whatever which im sure there was nothing wrong with but it was just 2 old people with nothing to do trying to complain. They people give him whatever and then he sits down unsatisfied, so they both start getting really passive aggressive and talking loudly about how this is bad service and they are being disrespected:comeon:
i can't stand people like that.

So u onw of those type of customers now? Complaining about singles? :birdman:







Jk in all seriousness one thing I wanted to switch this discussion to is if you guys have pet peeves that managers and supervisors do that annoy you...

for me I have this older lady as one of my front supervisors....she only works on weekdays...

whenever I come in I always try to take my time opening up....and she will just send people over and say register_is open....I still got to put bags up....make sure I have the right amount of money in my draw....ths dividers to separate orders....the two folders to separate coupons....enough change in my draw....enough coupon and receipt paper...





btw rite now its raining but im off......its always funny to see how it takes rain for the nutcases to hibernate

Speaking of computers, for some reason customers think they need some quad-core, 4TB worth of hdd along with 1gb of SSD, 16gb of ram type unit just to browse the internet, read email, and write documents in office. They say upfront that they don't know anything about computers then head straight down to the $800 laptop, I'm like WTF!!
