Do you have multiple piercings, odd coloured hair and more tats than Angry Anderson by any chance?I was shopping at JB a couple of weeks ago and this lady comes up to me and says "I know you don't work here but you look like you shop here a lot, could you tell me where Game of Thrones is?". So I end up helping out and pointing out where it is. You know the service is bad when you got people resorting to asking other customers for help.
Whoa, that "lady" is a campaigner. I work in a public library and pretty much every shift we get someone come in at the last minute wanting to get some books or a DVD. They don't even pretend to care or hurry when you tell them we are about to close.
Edit: I hope you didn't let her ruin your day. We just roll our eyes and laugh at them when they go.
As I said, I was cheerful because I was about to finish!
I just figure that people like that are just aholes and don't give them a second thought.
I always remember the nice customers though
My partner works at Coles so I get the near daily de-stressing when she gets home because of a-hole people she's served.
I shouldn't be surprised at the rudeness of people by now, but I still don't fully comprehend going out of your way to make a persons day as s**t as possible like some choose to. Its not the ones who come through being rude then leave, it's the ones who hang around demanding to see the manager because of some bullshit inane thing. Nothing better to do in life than cause drama. I genuinely detest those people.
Whats the Blu Ray like? Worth getting?
I bet those added CGI effects look even shittier in HD Blu Ray?
And many extras?
'This item was marked at $3, not $3.50! God, can't you people do anything right?!'
If people have worked in retail previously, I'm at a loss why they would ever be anything but friendly and considerate to staff. We've all been there, and know what it's like.

Similar to you Spitta2Azza , when I worked in retail those ****ing pricks who would wander in at 5.25pm looking for a pair of runners when we closed at 5.30pm.
campaigners. ****ing campaigners.
Do not miss retail one bit. K maybe the discounts, that's it.
What discount did you get? We get 5%.
Our store is 24/7 so yeah the chick had every right to believe I wasn't about to finish. Should've put my sign up earlier.

Had a bitch of a customer tonight. Was 8:58, and finished at 9:00. Contemplated chucking my 'closed' sign up, but didn't, thinking I'd get a couple of people getting one or two things to occupy my final two minutes. Nope. Bitch arrives with trolley full to the brim, on the phone, and chucks me her own bag with about 30 other bags inside of it.
Pack it in quickly as I want to GTFO out of there. Put all the cold stuff in one bag. She finally gets off the phone halfway through, before she shrieks 'I have a cooler bag!'. Turns out I overlooked her bag for cold goods inside all of her other bags. I say sorry, and continue scanning. If you weren't being a rude prick on the phone you might have noticed and been able to tell me.
Finally got towards the end of her items. Just fruit and veg left. It's about 9:05 now, and she's got about $350 worth of stuff. Put the bananas at the bottom, before working my way up with more fragile, prone-to-be-squished items like tomatoes. Put a capsicum and broccoli on top of her tomatoes. She yanks the bag from my hands, and starts repacking them, telling me that her tomatoes will get squashed. She mutters 'unbelievable' under her breath. At this point I'm trying my best to be over-the-top cheery to her. She snatches the receipt from my hand and storms off, and I skip upstairs finished for the night.
People who bring their own bags to the checkout: GTFO.
I remember when I was 15 or something and working at Coles, I accidentally packed a frozen tray of lasagna at the bottom of a bag (but I put frozen peas etc on top or something) and the lady snatched the bag off me and unpacked everything and said to her kids "OH GREAT, NOW WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SQUASHED LASAGNA FOR DINNER". **** she was a bitch. She also brought her own filthy meat-juice stained, smelly shopping bags.
Another time, I was serving this old bitch of a lady and asked her "Did you have fly buys?" again, I was like 15. She replied back with "Don't you mean DO you have flybuys?" I chuckled and said "yeah sorry" and then she goes "What do teachers teach all you kids these days?" and kept grumbling about whatever the **** she was on about. Anyway this middle aged man behind her decided to step in and said to her "Why don't you leave her alone you slapper. Go back home to the loony bin!" It was hilarious. Great use of the word slapper.
So you work at 24 hour Kmart?What discount did you get? We get 5%.
