I am NOT a dog!!

[Supermarket Slave Girl]

Hello everyone, I had a wonderful 9 hour shift in the deli from hell today, it was busy as all fuck and I was doing the closing tonight.

At about 7.30pm I was sweeping the floor, my head down so I didn't see the customer come up to the counter. So just how does this gem of a human being decide to get my attention?

Does he politely say excuse me could I please have such and such? No, he decides that whistling at me is the way to go, when I looked up at him I said "Did you just whistle at me? His response to this was a big shit eating grin then demands 2kgs of chicken wings. I get him the wings and when I hand them over I said "I don't appreciate being whistled at to get my attention, i'm not a dog, a simple excuse me would have worked.

Him "But you weren't paying attention to me, you should notice when I walk up"

Well excuse me for having other jobs to do rather than waiting with bated breath for a customer to come along you dumb arsehole. I didn't say that, kinda wish I had.

Seriously though, where are peoples manners? I've been reduced to being whistled at like an animal.

I have to find another job, my hours have been slashed to a measely 12 hours per week, can't support a family on that.

Work sucks.

[Evil Queen]

uh.. I've whistled to get people's attention. (mostly people I know, but one time it was this waiter because no matter how many times I waved, the buttmunch wouldn't acknowledge me.)

So... does this make me.... bad?

[LewisLegion]

Yes, EQ. Yes it does. Time for a spanking! *evil*

[tropicsgoddess]

Ugh...what an asshat. Besides being whistled at to get my attention, I HATE HATE HATE HATE when people snap their fingers at me like I'm some lowly servant.

[Evil Queen]

Yes, EQ. Yes it does. Time for a spanking! *evil*

*shakes her fanny*

OKay, but use the paddle... and...uh... ignore the camcorder.

Him "But you weren't paying attention to me, you should notice when I walk up"

"Sir, my job description entails other jobs beside standing here and looking pretty. And one more thing.... *Barks and snarls*"

OKay, but use the paddle... and...uh... ignore the camcorder.

I can take being whistled at, in fact my friend does that some times, since I am hard of hearing. But if some stranger does that to get my attention when there are other courses that he could have used...

[Golden Phoenix]

The one and only night i ever worked behind a bar (helping out a friend) this happened to me twice.

First time i sat and fumed about it for a while, the 2nd time i'd already thought of exactly what to say.

SC: *whistle*
Me: I'm sorry sir, we don't allow dogs, you'll have to leave.
SC: ?
Me: Your dog, that you just whistled for, we don't allow them.

I think my mate may have nicked tha tone off me cos i've heard her use it since

I would have just ignored him until he said something. I used to do that all the time when I worked at Media Play. Last guy that whistled at me got a big shock when I said loud enough for the whole store to hear, "Sir I am not a dog. I am a human being and will be treated as such. You may get my attention just by coming up to me and asking me." He turned beet red and left...never to return again.

*Keeps EQ uninformed of the british meaning of fanny and laughs uproariously*

Bwa?
*looks it up*

fanny - external female sex organs; "in England `fanny' is vulgar slang for female genitals"

That's why I love cultural divides, they can sometimes be quite entertaining.

[Evil Queen]

I always thought Americans were raunchy, then I come here.... You UKers take the cake AND the plastic dildo that was stuck on it.

You lot do things the other way round from us

The usage of the word Fanny is a clear example

So is your driving on the right hand side of the road

So one must wonder in which order you take the cake and sex toy

Oh Rayven. You're terrible!
