#1025 – work

This was posted over 23 years ago; my opinions, thoughts, attitude, and writing style may have evolved since then, and this post might have been different if it were to be posted today.

bleh… too many people who came in today and would mumble to me where they wanted to go, or i would greet them…

me: “hello! how can we help you?”

customer: *either really quiet so i couldn’t hear them or they would turn away or continue walking* “hi. mumblemumblemumble…

or

me: “hello! how can we help you?”

customer: *wanders away*

me: “uh, can we help you with anything?

customer: *stands with their back to me*

me: “CAN I HELP YOU FIND ANYTHING???”

customer: *continues…*

me: “ok, well, then, i’ll be over here.” 😛

or

me: “hello! how can we help you?”

customer: “i want this, and this, and such-and-such…” *wanders past me at my post as they continue talking*

me: (thinking “I’M OVER HERE, DUMBASS!”)

or

me: “hello! how can we help you?”

customer: “i want to talk to them” *points and walks up to the counter*

me: *runs after them* “i can take your name down and have a salesperson help you out”

customer: *looks around the entire room where people are either browsing the phones or standing there staring at the desk* “oh, there’s a WAIT TO SEE A SALESPERSON?!?!”

i hate it when people try to get away with assholery 😛 i’ve got more stuff to say about today, but that belongs better in co_workers_suck
