  • closed means CLOSED, featuring The Race Card

    So today I got a phone call saying someone had called out and they ask me if I could come in an hour earlier than scheduled. I live about 4.5 miles form work but was in another area running some errands. I would need to stop at home and then go to work. Well, for some reason their huge was a traffic backup (one of th lights on a main road was broken and wouldn't give anyone a green, all sides had a red) I ended up sitting in slowly moving traffic for about 15 minutes before a cop went by, thru the grassy median at like 50 MPH and got traffic moving.

    I knew this would put me behind and called work to tell them. I get in about 5-7 mins. late and punch in. In reality that left my dept. with no one on for about 5 minutes, which was no big deal since it was dead. As I walk up to the dept I see that they did what they were supposed to do, put up closed sighs and shut off the back room lights. Their are TWO SC's at the register, standing in front of the closed sign. As I approach...

    (keep in mind I work in a supermarket with plenty of registers in the front AND individual registers in, depend on the store, floral, bakery, deli)
    S(ucky)C2: Hey, we need some service here.
    Me: I am sorry about the wait a emergency came up and the other clerk had to leave early.
    SC2: Just ring up my stuff. You should tell customers that, uh, no one is here.
    Me: Sir, the lights are off and we have several closed signs up.
    S(tupid)C1: But how is that telling me anything.
    Me: If a closed sigh is up that means no one is working at that register.
    SC1: oh.
    Me: your total is $XX.XX
    SC1 hands me money and I give them change, they start to walk away...

    SC2: *exactly as he said it*You know what, gimme my money back. You was , ra- rac-, uh, racist. Yo closed to daswinanate against n*****s.
    Me: sir, As i said an emergency came up and I was ca...
    SC1 backs away
    SC2: You HAVE to give me my money back.
    Me: Sir, you can only get you money back if you take the muffins you dropped on the ground to the service deSk and ask for a refund.
    SC2: That wrong an R-A-C-I-S
    Me: sir I have given you your options. You can take you food or go to Service desk and get a refund.
    SC2: So I see <company> supports and hires racists.

    With that I walked over the the phone and paged the MOD to tell him what happened. No only did I get to deal with stupid people, but when I gently point out their errors they pull the race card.

    What does dawswininate mean? Oh......DISCRIMINATE....

    Sometimes it's hard not to discriminate against the perpetually stupid when they try to intimidate with big words, but end up choking on them.

      Yes the closed sign was to discriminate against you folk and we turned the lights off to discriminate against the blind let them try to wrap their brains around that one for a bit.

      With as much trouble as he had saying discriminate I bet he would have burst a blood vessel or two trying to figure that one out.

      Seriously though, why is it automatically discrimination when someone doesn't get their way. I get this a lot at my job, and not just from dark skinned people.

          You would think by now people would get a little more creative with the Race Card.

            Nah it's getting overused so many times now, hardly anyone can read the writing on how to use it.

              Sir the lights were off in this section and everything was dark, if anything we were supporting black people!

              Oh the things I'd like to say if I could.

                Yeah, right. We closed the place down to everyone just so we could discriminate against a certain type of people.

                  Ah, SC logic. See, there's only one lane that (what ever race he was) can use in that store, since it's store policy that only (what ever race he was) can use that lane. So of course it's discrimination that it's not open when the lanes for the other races are open.

                  Egad, just go somewhere else, moron.

                    Obviously the registers in the front of the store are for white people only. Dark skinned folks have to use the one in the back.
