Quoth fireheart View PostSo are you scamming or are the customers scamming?
A pack of melts can be bought at most $2 shops for about $1. If she doesn't have the money to maintain that, how the hell does she have a roof over her head?

Quoth XRogue View PostI had to spend all of 5 minutes explaining to a custy why her food stamp card will not cover buying scented wax for her candle warmer. Because, yanno, it's not FOOD, you daft numpty!Teach a SC to fish... and they will whine about you not catching, filleting, frying, and serving it up on a silver platter for them. - EvilEmpryss

Quoth OfficeSlug View PostTwo guys came through my line the other day, upset that Food Stamps didn't cover their fish bait (shrimp), saying it was "ridiculous." They balked at paying the $3, complaining the whole time.

I think I have another for this Epic Thread.
I CAN HEAR YOU!! Criticizing my speed, when the person in front of you is taking their sweet time is not going to make me ring you up faster.
In fact, be shitty enough & I might just slow down. I'm sorry you're a miserable person with no life. I'm sorry you hate yourself so much that you have to talk shit about me to make yourself feel better. Have a nice day, Dickwad.Here Mr Customer, let me pull that out of my arse for you!

Quoth freespirit114 View PostOne more off the top of my head- do not insist we over ride the declined message on your credit or debit card. Can't be done. It's declined cause you don't have the money. There is no magic button deadbeat!

Put things on the belt and it will bring them to me I was trying to retrieve an SC's card from the end of the belt when they decided to sling a pineapple down--see those spines? You can put it on its side and it will stay put. Trust me. Oh, and that HURT; you're lucky I wear glasses or it would have poked me in the eye. No, I am not ringing you up now. Yes, that is a shift lead telling you to leave. (it wasn't bad enough to warrant a report, but Manager P didn't care if it was intentional or not--they did it and had to know what would happen, they get to leave).
DO NOT ask/demand that I override the WIC guidelines. I know you got Juicy Juice here before (I think due to the shutdown, guidelines were reissued to cover the cheapest/store brands only), but it's not covered now. Kraft Singles are definitely not covered and never were. Another store 'does it all the time'? Which store? Please, do tell.Last edited by Dreamstalker; 11-13-2013, 12:22 PM."I am quite confident that I do exist."

It's considered rude to back into the pregnant teenager (who is gathering carts instead of cashiering for the day) with your car, knocking her to the ground, and driving away.
Yes, this actually happened to me 26-ish years ago."So, if you wanna put places like that outta business, just stop being so rock-chewingly stupid." ~ Raudf, 9/19/13

I'm glad you weren't seriously hurt. I doubt they'd send a pregnant woman out to gather carts at our place unless she was very early on.

They'd let me occasionally do the carts when they were really backed up, or if a cart-person/bagger called in. Keep in mind this was back in the day before everyone was so sue happy and employers didn't worry as much about getting hit with a lawsuit."So, if you wanna put places like that outta business, just stop being so rock-chewingly stupid." ~ Raudf, 9/19/13

Laughing at me when I accidently drop something heavy with a pained look on my face (because it's causing me pain), and then complaining I didn't laugh along with you, is callous. I am so glad I no longer have to lift anything over 10 lbs, and have a document that says I don't have to. Go ahead and complain to HR that I won't do it; she'll back me up. Or you can pay for my surgery."Is it hot in here to you? It's very warm, isn't it?"--Nero, probably
