This happened back in July and we still laugh about it today
( this is here as it's related to work but not a customer)
LADY comes in looking harassed
LADY - Have my photos come back today? It's taking ages and I really can't keep walking all the way down here everyday like this
ME - what name were they ordered under please?
LADY - It really is unreasonable to make me walk down here twice a week to check for my photos, why aren't they in?
ME - I haven't said they're not in I've asked for the name you ordered them under so I can check
LADY -oh....well it's _____
( checks file and it says the film was ordered 2 days ago. The photo service is a 6 day service which is fully explained when they put it in)
ME - It says here you placed your order 2 days ago
LADY - yes I did
ME - The service takes 6 days as we have to post them to the lab they won't be back for another 4 days
LADY - ....oh..but i really can't take walking all the way down here to keep checking like this ,it's too far for me to come so often
ME - ok, I'll take your phone number and I'll call you when they come in
LADY - that would be wonderful, thank you. I just can't take the walk so often.
she turns to leave then stops and comes bacl
LADY - Also I wanted to ask about the job poster in the window, what's the hours and rate of pay?
At this point I hear from behind me in the dispensary the muffled sound of laughing which is bound to be my manager (the customer can't see or hear that)
I managed to fob her off with an application form then join in the laughing once she left.
She moans about having to walk all the way down to our store (a 5 mintue walk from her house, a co worker lives in the same road) yet she wants a job where she'd have to walk everyday ?_? ?_?
And why would we employ someone who complains like that ?
