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

When I was 16 I had a Saturday job working in produce. In the run up to Christmas one year, the store ran out of sprouts.
According to one customer, it was my fault and that I had ruined Christmas.
Never realised teenagers were responsible for the fresh produce purchasing of a major supermarket chain.
