View Full Version : An 'Eventful' Shift At Work Today...

Basically I work p/t in fast food, and before I joined, a customer (and clearly a thug) used a large pitchfork thing and scratched the windows of the store before leaving, dunno why as it was before I had started. Anyways, today I was on till, and he comes in (obviously I am not aware of his track record at this moment in time). A fellow staff member serves him at the till two away from me (and there are only 3 tills, so quite close as you can imagine). I am serving a customer myself, but am listening. He wants a burger but doesn't appear to have the correct amount of change, and when he finally does, he demands free cheese. When the staff member on till says no to this, he begins shouting for the manager in a rather loud manner, whilst others are in the store. After my manager and him have a dispute, my manager says that he has footage of his last appearence from cctv, of which he demands to see, and shows him a clip on his phone whilst explaining he has more. Eventually my manager refuses to serve him and gives him his money back, walking back towards the office. The 'thug', clearly pissed, shouts 'is that my burger', and JUMPS over the surface, takes a burger from the chute (where burgers are kept once made), throws trays over the floor, jumps back over and walks out. I just cannot get over this kind of behaviour. Funny thing was, at one point before it really kicked off, he said to my manager 'Im from Peckham and last time I was here one of your staff was racist towards me' despite being white.... :conf: so yeah, eventually the police arrived, and thats my story!

I know it was a long read, and most people on here would be too selfish to read through my traumatic day, but you didn't let me down.

Free cheese?
Jake.

Free cheese?
As in free cheese added to the burger, when in reality its 40p extra. He should be in a homeless shelter if he can't afford cheese tbh

From what I remember the trays were on the till surface, he threw them/shoved them after he grabbed the burger on his way back over the till surface

My till wasn't open :bored: And I was busy serving a very likable chap.

Then he would've probably picked them up and walked off o.0

Throwing a tub of mayonnaise over him might have done the trick.

At one point before it really kicked off, he actually shouted 'I bet one of them is gonna spit in my burger!' and my manager replied 'no, we don't do that here' :laugh:
It's not what you expect when you go to work and must have been very upsetting for everyone on the shop. I hope you're feeling better now.

why was he allowed on the premises again after what he did the last time? He should have been banned 1st time round & the manager should have escorted him out before getting served.

Because the other cashier probably wasn't aware of who it was at first, from now on he isn't allowed to be served.

Is the nacho burger any good? I can't work out why it exists.

Is it not KFC that's doing the Nachoburger?

I think its KFC, but I might he wrong. It's a burger thing with a big crispy nacho in it
lostalex
10-09-2012, 07:30 PM
oh i thought maybe they created some sort of giant nacho buns for the burger. So a nacho burger is just putting a nacho in a chicken sandwich?? that's pretty lame. i do like nachos though. Taco Bell Dorito taco shell tacos are AMAZING.
We don't have Taco Bell here. I know I'd like it though!!

Its KFC, it has a hashbrown in it aswell

They should allow you to carry a tazer from now on. I'd be scared that he's gonna come back, and you should have the right to taze him if he does. He could have seriously hurt people,. he sounds like he was out of his mind with anger and hostility. No one should be subjected to that for minimum wage.
do you know if he was caught and put in jail?

Agree 100%, and to my knowledge no, not yet.
Glad you are ok JH95, but I doubt you get paid enough to put up with that kind of c*ap from the public, plus a few customers must have been fightened by it also.
Got to say something about your avatar, because everytime I see it, at first glance as it is on the darkish side, I keep thinking it's a cyberman :joker:
