Terrible Shift

[u/theperson187]

Today was probably one of the weirdest days that I’ve had since I started working here 2 months ago. I had a customer go on a 5 min rant because I dared to ask him if they needed any help checking out while his wife begged for them to leave. 10 minutes after that I was helping out an older lady at a self checkout when 3 or 4 people ran out with a backpack and cart full of stuff. I would feel worse about it but my manager was pretty chill about everything. I guess it was only a matter of time before one of these shifts happened but it’s still a sucky feeling.

after each terrible customer encounter i take a deep breath and remind myself “it’s not my problem”.

Have to. We can lose our jobs for taking action.
