[quote name='Birakon']I work at walmart (im a cashier up front now, but at the time this happenned I was a sales associate in lawn and garden) anyway we had plenty of help on this day except the door greeter for lawn and garden didn't show up, so my manger told me to sit by the door and check receipts since we had more than enough help on the floor right now.
I was sitting there, checking receipts......being bored since I wasn't allowed to leave that area unless somone else took my place, and this woman comes up "where are the
ing carts?" (now this is lawn and garden, there are no carts......the carts are at the front end of the store) I say "at the front of the store, would you like me to -" she cut me off "what the hell? my mother is 80
ing years old and she needs a cart" (keep in mind, her mother is in the door behind her with a cart saying "i've already got one" during the whole time im getting cussed at) so the lady says "go get me a cart and do your
ing job".......I said "im not allowed to leave this area, let me get somone" I stood up and she got in my face "go get me a god damn cart" at this point my co worker came up and asked what was going on, she said "i asked this prick 5 times to get me a cart and he wont".
My co worker kept saying that i wasn't allowed to leave the area, anyway while my co worker is talking to her, I go inside to tell the cashier to call management because we have to do this to cover ourselves, I went in and I told the cashier that there was this crazy woman cussing out me and (insert co workers name) because there were no carts, at that point the ladies mother starts cussing me out for calling her daughter crazy, I walk away from her without dignifying it with a response and go back outside where I tell the lady ill get her a cart, I start walking out into the parking lot to look for one and the lady says "HELLO ITS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR
ING FACE" i looked back at her and she was pointing way to the far left behind a car out of my view.....LOL
anyway I walk towards it and my other co worker asked me what was going on, I said this lady wants a cart.
at that point she runs out of the store pointing and screaming at me, I told her to go talk to a manager if she has a problem with me, but im not getting her a cart anymore, she said ill do that and asks me for my name, i flipped my namebadge up and she said "jeremy! haha you wait prick"
She comes back with my manager about 30 minutes later and says "HERE HE IS, THAT GUY, HE WAS SITTING RIGHT HERE, i asked him for a cart for my old mother and he wouldnt get it for me, he rolled his eyes and went to complain to his friend over there about me"
I laughed, hard and uncontrollably, it was hilarious to me how much of a lie her story was, that just made her more mad, she continued to cuss me out in front of my manager for about 5 minutes straight, ranging from "you're a lazy
ing douchebag" to "you sit there all day as a greeter, get a real
ing job, I used to be in the national guard and I would lift 600 pounds of mulch every day"
sure.
anyway the manager asked if it was true, I said nope while I was still laughing at the lady (she was so pissed) and the manager told her "ill look into it" she agreed on her craziness after she left.
oh something else that's funny, the woman said "ILL NEVER
ING SHOP HERE AGAIN"
I seen her 2 days later in grocery,[/quote]
When I worked at Wal*Mart doing overnight stock about 10 years ago, we only got the crazy and drunk people in at around 2:30-3am. They were funny and easy to talk to. This is why I normally shy away from daytime retail, since some customers are total pricks.
You know the ones, they want what they want and they want it yesterday, like you're some sort of mind reader.
