Most of you sound terrible at your jobs. And your jobs are quite literally the easiest on the planet.

Job is to use a register designed to be idiot proof to check out items and be polite to customer in an air conditioned retail setting. Fails somehow.

Most are nice. But a sizeable percentage are sullen and rude despite having an easy as gently caress job.

If it helps you get through the day sure go ahead and believe that. But the orderlies who change bedsheets are providing a service to help the sick and injured, you poorly replace an ipad.

Thank you. I didn't think it was appropriate for a guy like that to poo poo on people who help others for a living.

new phone who dis posted:Even with all the lovely customers, the thing I hated most about those jobs is the corporate culture demanding everyone to be standing all the time. If I'm behind a counter ringing up poo poo I should be able to sit on a stool. Standing here for hours is loving stupid. lose some weight, your knees and feet won't hurt just from standing. Exercise some too, couldn't hurt.

I learned a lot of invaluable skills as a teenager working retail. How to deal with people, be professional, etc. Some days were hard but that's because I was 16.

and then posts in a retail bitching thread on another forum about how some crazy guy with tourettes yelled at him for 20 minutes and then got in trouble with the boss for not greeting him in time. The cycle continues.

Supercondescending posted:When I was a senior in high school I worked at a party supply store. Our manager, Brian, did his very best to hire only teenage girls. We had a problem with a couple of old ladies (seriously it was like the same 3 or 4 old ladies) coming in a few times a week, making GBS threads themselves, leaving their lovely underwear in the bathroom, and dropping turds all over the bathroom floor and occasionally smearing some on the walls. I don't know if these ladies knew each other and had some kind of turd party club or what, but they all had the same store-making GBS threads tactics, it was nuts. Anyway, Manager Brian not only refused to ever clean up the poo poo himself ever (he once left it over a holiday weekend to fester while we were closed) but he would specifically scream at the 2 male employees if they ever tried to clean it up. Because Brian wanted the teenage girls to do it. He wanted to WATCH the teenage girls do it. He would come pick a teenage girl cashier, drag them away from their register, force them to pick up poo poo, and then stand there watching and breathing really heavily the whole time. He'd pick a specific girl of the day to do it, today THIS GIRL, THIS SPECIFIC ONE would be his poo poo Queen. If you protested he'd fire you on the spot. I cried one time while cleaning up the poo poo because I was 17 and it was so gross, and his face got super flushed and he "hehhh'd" softly and I assume came in his pants. Sounds like he has life figured out and is happy.
