Some retail complaints from twitter this morning. I don’t think anyone can fully comprehend how stupid humans are until they work a retail or hospitality job.
I’d like to add on the people who ask a question, get an answer they don’t like and ask the same question in a different way to get the response they want.
I get stuff like this often enough at work, but that last one? There is one customer we have that does that so frequently and for so long (personal record with me is goddamn FORTY MINUTES of trying to get the answer she wanted) that we call her Circle Lady when she isn’t present.
Then there are the ones who do this, fail, and try it again with the same employees the next day.
Me: “For the drink, it’s [x amount] :)”
Customer: “I saw a sign that I get a free drink?”
Me: “For signing up for our rewards program, yes :)”
Customer: “Oh… I don’t have one of those”
Me: “Well if you sign up, you can get the free drink! :)”
Customer: “Eh I don’t want to sign up”
Me: “…” “…” “:)”
Customer: “I hate getting all those emails”
Me: “Oh, well you can opt out of emails, I can show you how :)”
Customer: “No thanks, I don’t want an account”
Me: “Okay… well the drink will be [x amount] :)”
Customer: “I thought it was free?”
Me: “:)”
Me: “It’s free if you sign up for our rewards program :)”
Customer: “I don’t want to sign up”
Me: “Then the drink isn’t free :)”
Customer: “You can’t just give me the drink?”
Me: “No, I can’t unfortunately :)”
Customer: “Why not? It’s only [x amount]”
Me: “If that’s not a lot of money to you, why don’t you just pay for it? :)”
Customer: “This is shit customer service”
Me: “:)”
Customer: “This is highway robbery, squeezing every dime out of people, you should be ashamed of yourself—”
Me: “I don’t control the prices, I’m just a cashier :)“
Customer: “—making a fucking fuss over a damn drink and it’s not even a large—”
Me: “That’s not my decision, I’m just a cashier :)”
Customer: “—and you bet I won’t be coming back here again”
Me: “How unfortunate :)”
I can feel the :) deep in my soul
I have never felt the :) so viscerally as in this post.
andrew can pretend that he actually meant for nepeta to be autistic but everyone knows the fandom is what made smth good outta the shit he gave us. stimmy kitty
yall better be just as outraged about this as you were about notre dame
I’m not sure this is true?? I can’t find any other source of this and the only source I can find talking about it is a pro-Israel website talking about a tweet
there are no news stories covering it and even though the u.s. is pro-Israel politically there would be other news sources from other countries
the building in the photo had been bombed in august 2018 and couldn’t have been rebuilt and then bombed again that fast
it turns out this was in fact a total lie and i’d like to apologise for not properly researching this first - i saw the post, got angry and made a rash post about it here without looking it up first which is just an entirely stupid move. sorry.
I’m surprised I’ve never seen anybody make the criticism of the MCU that Thanos is a Mary Sue villain who has no weaknesses and just wins because the plot says so, because he 100% is
Thany Sue!
“This is my character thanos! hes from a long dead race and wants to kill half the universe to save the other half and he has almost no weaknesses and he can handle the power of the infinity stones which have killed almost everyone who individually used them but he can use all of them with only minor burns and scarring”
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
