Hi all, newbie here!
I'd like to share some of my higlighted moments from my previous job.
I used to work for this sandwich shop that also served coffee. Good coffee I must say.
My co-worker and I used to have this unspoken rule - we both knew about customers the other one disliked, and therefore whenever this customer came in, the other person would take care of him/her. Of course, there were a couple of people who non of us could stand so we just took turns. The following were my turns:
These are just two examples of morons we dealt with:
W: weirdo customer
M: I cannot deal with your bull*hit any more me
W: "I don't like the Mexican music you are playing out in the lobby.
M: "I am sorry, sir, I can change that for you"
W: "I said I hate the Mexican music! We are in America here! Change the music to something appropriate. I want Japanese music!
M: :confused: "I am sorry sir, but we don't have such a thing on the radio"
W: "I've always had a problem with your attitude! Change the music to something American! Put Japanese music on!"
M: "OK" *thinking: YOU MORON!*
Later our boss told us he left him about 10 twenty-minute message on his home phone complaining about the store not being able to play the appropriate 'proud to be an american' japanese music. UGH!:eek:
This other SC was a guy who noone liked. He would always come in and if his total came to over a whole number, he would empty the penny jar to the total of his change, just to come back later demanding bills for his $20 worth of change. We had gone as far as hiding the pennies as soon as he pulled in. One day he came in and this happened:
H: homophobic racist customer
M: outraged me
H: "What coffee is good today?"
M: "I really like the Mexican Roast we have today"
H: "Yuck! Mexican?! You know that Jesus told the Mexicans that they are not supposed to do anything until he comes back for them?!"
M: "Excuse me?!":eek: :confused:
H: "I'm not drinking no stinkin' Mexican coffee!"
M: *blank stare. I have a lot of friends of different origin and this was just plain offensive. I'M GONNA GET YOU, YOU BASTARD!*
He came back for a sandwich later - with a side of salsa. Hm.......:devil:
What a closed-minded butthead!
