Seriously, this is starting to get on my nerves. I understand if you don't want to talk, but the least you could do is look at me, but I don't even get that. These people piss me off. Do they really think they're sooooooo much better than me and thus don't have to show any common decency? And there's that word 'common' again....it seems like all the stuff it's used for isn't too common these days. I get especially pissed off at the one with the smug look on their face while they're pretending I don't exist.
And how is it that so many people have become so fracking lazy? If you pick something up off the shelf, look at it, and decide you don't want it, put it right back. Don't set it on top of a different pallet of items next to where you found it! It's like they go out of their way to give us more work to do. Then there's the stuff they decide halfway through that they don't want. So, do they bring itup to the register and hand it to us saying they don't want it, or go put it back. No, god forbid they do any of that! Just set it down wherever you're at, and if you know it's a crappy thing to do, hide it underneath something. Double points for frozen items. Triple for meats! Then there are those who bring the items to the register, but decide rather than handing the item(s) to us, they'll just set them at the end of the belt, out of sight on the pallets between registers. Or, my personal favorite, load everything onto the belt, and then yell at me for scanning items you didn't want. It's not like you could have told me before hand, no, that would be logical.
For those that don't know, I work at the Club. In order to shop at the Club, one must be a member. How do we insure that one is a member? Member cards! At the register, the first thing we do before anything else is swipe that card. Can't do anything until that's done. For those new members, I understand not having it out, but if you've been there more than a year, you should know how this works. The fact that I have to ask, and that you react with a deer in the headlights look as though everything suddenly started changing colors and melting, does not speak well of your ability to THINK. Double points for those that do this that have been members since before I was born!
And a shout out to my managers who want me to change my entire personality for them and do stuff I'm not comfortable with. I am not a good salesman, and I wasn't hired for that. If I was, then I've been sorely misinformed about my dutie. I'm an introvert. I do not interact well with people unless I know them really well. I've told you this.....and you've ignored it. Add to that the fact that I've been asking to get moved somewhere else in the store, anywhere that's not a register, and when an opening comes up, not even telling me about it, even though company policy says you have to. So there goes that opprotunity. Low and behold, annother opening that you actually do tell me about is available, and despite asking about it continuosly, I'm told only that you're still informing people and haven't made any decisions yet. Odd...that other opening was around for two days before you filled it and I found out after the fact, yet now you're taking several weeks to decide, and telling me you're also looking at new hires. Wtf? Don't current employees get priority? Last I knew, that was how things went.
One last thing for those folks who bring their kids with them; the store is not a playground or daycare center, and letting your kids run around screeaming loudly and jumping onto flatbed carts among other things, is going to get you kicked out. We aren't going to risk that your pwecious gets hurt and you try to sue us for your negligence.

Not anything big, just a lot of little things adding up. Needed to blow off some steam.

I'm more or less one sided deaf with an aid in the good side, so having mono hearing does mean that any background noise can drown out speech. So if a person is on my bad side or I've turned my head at the moment someone speaks to me, there's a good chance I wont answer.
