Who works in retail?
 

Just wondering what the worst thing a customers said to you? I got called a little bitch a couple of days ago because they didn't have a customers size in a coat, she said it about me to her boyfriend/husband

I was a bit shocked but the people I work with say that's tame to what I'll get over Christmas :(

I do and ive had a women shout at me because she overspent bitch its not my fault you dont stick to your shopping list

Oh I get it on a daily basis now. I work the tills so by the time they get there they think they have an excuse to be a ****.

The customer is always right.

I hate that saying because they're not always right.

To retail workers its correct.

Just when they don't believe you when you're out of stock for something. It's my job to sell you stuff I'm not going to lie

customers need to die

i was on self scan today and some woman kept shouting "EXCUSE ME!" like bitch i can see your red light st*u

People coming in with 5 minutes to spare

The customers are always right apparently :spin:

Generally not putting stuff back if you don't want it

Retail workers are trained to believe so. This thread is like opening a can of unprofessional worms imo

I'm not allowed on tills yet too young but I'm dreading it because you're stuck there and you have to try and make convo :omgno:

Omg i always do this put something in the trolley get half way round and decide idont want it so put it on the nearest shelf but never in my own place haha

A customer played the race card because she rudely just came into the shop and didn't bother to wait in line and I told her where the queue is nicely and told them I have to serve other people first as they waited.

Kids generally

I just go yeah yeah yeah they get bored in the end

It's unprofessional if someone argues back at work. Venting afterwards in your own time certainly isn't.

I only make conversations with the awkward hag types. The rest I just scan through and say goodbye too.

Never. This thread confirms it. I'd rather shred paper all day for less.

Obviously, it's only unprofessional if you argue with the customer and tell them they're wrong. I have never done that in my life, I just kept it to myself and spoke about it afterwards to my friend after work.

So wrong

I hate it when someone has a trolley full of shopping on the belt and your scanning it through and their stood there like twats taking hours to put a loaf of bread in a ****ing bag

Most people are fine it's just the 3-4 wankers a day

Dont get me started on scanning through carrier ****ing bags
