They let customers in early yesterday, much to the disappointment of my coworker "Tom" - the tech on duty - cos he needed to use the toilet.
A little while after he went off for that a customer came in wanting to have the hard drive replaced in his Mac right away.
I know it won't take long but I didn't know if the tech would have the time to do it since we didn't actually have anyone working repair. So he agreed to sit at a consultation booth and wait for the tech.
I also took the time to let him know that the OS wouldn't be on the hard drive and that he would need to have some means to put in on. The SC seemed to act like I didn't know what I was talking about because his computer didn't come with recovery discs... maybe he assumed we'd just put it on for him which... we won't.
But as the minutes ticked by the SC got madder and madder and demanded to know where the tech was.
Me: He told me he was going to the bathroom.
I was tempted to ask him if he wanted me to go to the men's room to drag him out. But I figured it would come off bitchy... or he'd say "yes! go do that!" I mean sure I kept looking back towards the head to see if Tom was coming back yet but there's not much else I can do. He's fucking human I mean... he has a right to piss and shit.
Finally the SC blew up.
SC: I'm done here. I want the manager! *Then he stormed off to the checkout line*
Being the bitch I am... I got him the manager and explained "He's mad because the tech is in the bathroom." Yes sir SC.... I let the manager know you're complaining that the tech was using the toilet instead of serving you. The manager went to talk to the man and I walked off.
I think the SC knew that no one was not taking his whine seriously. He proceeded to try arguing with the manager that the potty visit should count as a break and... I think he was even more pissed off that the manager wasn't agreeing with him. There's no way he's going to punish the tech for using the toilet. That would be an HR nightmare right there. And I think that's what the SC wanted... to see the tech punished. And knowing that the manager wasn't going to do it... o yeah he be mad.
When Tom finally got back I told him what happened, rolling my eyes. Turned out his potty break took longer because other customers accosted him on the way back so he helped them first before relieving himself. And yeah, he pretty much rolled his eyes too.
