'I don't work here, lady': Delivery guy agrees to scan woman's groceries at her insistence

Never underestimate a customer's ability to be completely and utterly wrong. That's the lesson one baffled delivery person learned during one of their days on the job. Every job deals with clients or customers in some way, and at the most basic level, it's an employee's responsibility to assist them. Companies take this very seriously. For example, at call centers, most workers aren't allowed to hang up on callers, even if they're flipping out over the phone because they don't understand why th…

'I stopped doing everything extra': Grocery employee lets store fall into chaos after bosses remind them they're 'just a cashier'

This grocery store is going through changes, and its employees are not happy about it. A working environment is really defined by your bosses. You can have the best workplace in the world, but if management is poor, people won't stick around. This grocery store is going through something like that right now, as one employee, u/bugme143, explained.

impatient customer grocery shopper shopping bulk rushed reddit petty revenge

'Do not mess with me at Costco': Patient bulk-shopper gets rushed for his parking spot while unloading his groceries; proceeds to move at a glacial pace as payback

There's nothing worse than feeling like you're being rushed. When you're at the store and the person behind you in line is breathing down your neck, there's a part of you that wants to run the other direction to get out of their way.

'If you're in the building, you're working': Grocery shopper demands help from the only employee who cannot assist her

When customers demand help , they want to be helped immediately. And instead of listening when workers actually try to help them, they seem to shut off their ears, and end up throwing a tantrum instead.

'This was her big mistake, her address was on the check': Cashier gets petty revenge on an entitled Karen, orders her a lifetime of magazine subscriptions as vengeance

When you work minimum wage jobs, like in retail, grocery, or delivery, for some reason, entitled people seem to think that they can lord themselves over you with no consequences. Sure, part of your job is to provide some sort of service to the customer, but you're certainly not their servant. Karens everywhere would disagree.
