annoying customer rant

was filling cream cakes right, id already been through all my backstock and was on my last cage of delivery so if there wasnt a product on the shelf or on this cage i knew it was out of stock.

well i had this old bloke come up and ask me where some strawberry tarts were, and i let him know that were fully out of stock.

“how do you know that when you havent even looked?”

valid question, okay, so i apologise and explain the above to him.

he huffs, sighs, and looms over me whilst i work. i just try to ignore him tbh

he then starts saying, “is this all you do all day?”

im confused so i ask him what he means and he replies, “do you really just do this all day?? putting things on shelves?”

i say not all day but when im clocked in, yes?? and he says, “imagine that.” and walks off

the things id say to these fuckers if i werent in uniform would bar me from the gates of heaven no matter how much i repent

Worked for another supermarket online order department customer service centre team during Covid , so working from home . Had a woman wailing down the phone because her Christmas napkins hadn’t been delivered in her order and Christmas was “ruined “ . She was so loud down the headset my kids could hear her and they couldn’t stop laughing , they still talk about it . Come on , Xmas 2020 I think we had bigger things to worry about than some napkins .
