  • I'm pretty sure I know how to do my job

    I've been at my store 6 years. Everything I do is for a reason. So this SC kept criticizing me as I was scanning her daughter's stuff. First, the 1 1/2 seconds it took me to find the barcode wasn't fast enough. I could've punched it in, but that'd take longer. Then, I had two sets of bowls in different colors. One scanned, other didn't have a sticker. I barely got a chance to look for it when she piped up, "Why don't you just use the code on the blue ones??" Um, because different colors often have different #s, not that I need to explain myself. I admit I was glad when one of their items was on manufacturer recall and I couldn't sell it to them. I was just so incensed at being second-guessed throught the whole thing, when I take time to do it right.

    "Because when you come back to return the red ones they won't be listed on the receipt. I thought I'd do you a favor and do my job correctly but I can do it your way too. At least I'll get a laugh when they refuse your return and kick out of the store for causing a scene."

      What you really did was save your store a 50 dollar gift card. Now she'll have to come up with another reason to scam your store.
      Customers should always be served . . . to the nearest great white.

        Does no one know how inventory works? Before I even worked in retail I knew about inventory and why blue bowl =/= red bowl.

          My short explanation to customers is along the lines of "We need to scan each individual flavour, otherwise we'll get 10 boxes of the Fluffy Dog Chow in Princess Pork instead of the 10 boxes of the Fluffy Dog Chow in Butch Beef"

            Let me guess, she was "in a hurry".

              But never in too much of a hurry to bitch about you to the store manager.

                Heck I know three year olds that know why red =/= blue. I know, I know different concept, but it works
