Ignorant, selfish customers!

Hey hey all!

Ok so i work in a shop, serving the good customers of Ashford and beyond lol. Which means out of ten good customers i serve there is 1 prick. 1 complete ignorant, selfish, fuck-faced, wanna shoot in the face customer. Whether its a man or woman you always get them.

I have wayyy too many examples to put on now but i'll put a few up lol.

About a week ago when iw as working the evening shift (from 3pm till 11pm) i happened to come across one of these people. Now i was upstairs when they kind of first gave out but when i came down i got the gist of it. Anyways it was at about 9pm. This lady had come in and had went to the coffee machine. It had not long been cleaned, in which afterwards we turn off. So after kind of realising it wouldnt work had gone up to my 'work collegue' and asked whether the coffee machine was working. He replied that it wasn't and had been turned off for the night. She basically kind of huffed and puffed and kind of said that it should be working. At this point i had come down and knew what she was talking about. I kindly said to her 'oh we have boiling water and tea bags if you'd like a cup of tea'. So she said in a smart-assed tone directed towards my work collegue 'oh id love a cup of tea'. I kind of laughed to myself and went behind the till. Mo work collegue then explained the whole story.

So anyways she got a cup of tea and as she was paying for it (along with petrol) she said to both of up 'without trying to sound smart assed, when i was young restaraunts and petrol stations that stayed open till a certain time kept everything on till they closed'. So i replied 'well it has to be cleaned in enough time to get other jobs done so we leave at the time we get paid till'. She immediately mumbled something walking out the door and said 'oh well i bet you's dont even stay till your supposed to' and she walked out the door.....

WHAT A COW!!!! I got so fucking angry then i threw a marker at the door!
Now what really pissed me off is that 1. In 'her time' petrol stations prob didnt have coffee machines. 2. we get payed till 11pm, in which we close at 10:45 to do the till reports etc..thats it! If we got payed till we left then hell yeah id keep the coffee machine on and clean it after 11pm. And 3. personall, i stay till 11pm nearly every night and if the shop is busy i will keep it open beyond 11:45pm! Fucking whore she was. And it was just her whole tone of voice and the immaturity when she said 'oh id love a cup of tea'.....get a life, bitch!

So my final example of an ignorant customer happened a good few months back, amybe october or so.

Now the way our tills are layed out there is a confectionary stand kind of blocking one of the tills as you walk in the door (to your right) but there is still a counter for people to go to. But some people dont see it (through lack of COP ON!!!). Anyways this man, in about his 50's, walked in and kind of stood against the confectionary stand. He asked could he have a 4euro quick pick for the lotto. So i asked him in a nice tone 'sir could you please come over to the counter here'. He didnt quite here me so i repeated it....In which he moved to the counter and said to me 'are you going to give me the fucking 4euro quick pick or what?' - I swear people those were his exact words!!!. To say i was shocked is an understatement. I said to him 'sorry sir there is no need to speak to me, i only asked you to move to the counter'. He then said 'I only want a 4euro quick pick so give me it'. I said to him 'but there was no need to speak to me like that'...He then said 'oh i can have you shut down, i can have you shut down and you out of a job so are you going to give me the 4euro quick pick?' - he had handed me the fiver at the start. So i said to him proudly 'you know what, here is your fiver and you can leave the shop'....

As it happens he did actually report me and the shop to an post (who deal with the lottery). They did nothing about it and also my manager backed me up and defended me.

So, it just makes me laugh that customers think they can treat people behind the counter like crap, especially when you are friendly to them! 'The customers always right'.....MY BOLLOX THEY ARE!

And its also the little things like you have to hand them there change, into there hand. But yet they can throw the money on the till, not on your hand. They can hand you a not crumpled up and looking like shite! lol

Customers would be the first to complain if you serve them with 'dirty' hands yet some people come into the shop, not only with fucking mucky hands but they go to take money out of there pockets and among the change and notes are....sawdust, dust, screws, general CRAP! ugh, disgusting.......

And then there is the forecourt...ahhh dont get me started lol! So the shop has 4 pumps. Someone gets petrol, fair enough. They then decide to go intot he shop and get a roll, coffee, maybe a paper. Thats grand....Wait, they dont think 'oh wait, i might be int he shop for some time, i'll move my car so there is a free space for someone else to get fuel and i'll let them know inside'. But no, they dont do that!! They leave there car parked at the pump, blocking someone elses chance of getting fuel...What that creates is a 'rippling effect'. A car is blocking a pump, someone else queues behind it, waiting...another queues behind that car waiting....therefor making other people angry and delaying them, all because of someones lack of common sense....

Oh wait, i thought of something worse...People who do 2 things. They either park at the pump and DONT GET FUEL! Or they park INBETWEEN 2 pumps and block BOTH PUMPS!...Fuck me are you complete cunt monkeys?!?!?! And these are the people who would be the first to complain or notice someone else doing it haha.

So people, future customers of shops, future buyers of fuel at petrol stations, please please have some COP ON...COMMON SENSE...SOME IDEA OF WHAT IS AROUND YOU OR WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 5 MINUTES! It can make your day easier, someone elses days easier and less time comsuming. Take they attitude: 'Treat others as you would like to be treated'. Then you can complain about other complete wank faced horse fucking, prick headed people =]

Woooo have a nice evening y'all!
