OMG YES. Someone today wanted $1200, I did $600 on one smokeshop till and $600 on the other, and then about 3 customers later someone wanted $500.

Try having customers ask for huge cashouts when your supermarket is pretty much right next to a few banks, and a few dozen ATM's. Makes me RAAAGGGGEEE :burn:

Within 50-100 metres there are about five ATMS.
Is there no hope?

Yea I once gave a customer about $300 in cashout. The customer after the next wanted like $250. Then my till was near empty. Next guy comes and wants cashout, had to tell him I had no money. That guy got pretty pissed off. And yea, we've got an ATM in our store too but it's only an ANZ one. I'm still going by my theory that customers don't bring their brains along when they shop. I've had a few forget to bring their wallets and then wants to leave their shopping there while they go home and get it. I mean SERIOUSLY!! How can you not bring your wallet when you go shopping?! LOL.

Don't abuse me because you cannot follow directions on your receipt.
Don't expect me to go out of my way to help you when you swear, throw things and scream at me to the point where I have to call security.
And worst of all, don't call me racist JUST because you're asian and I'm white. I don't care if you're white, black, brown, yellow or purple with green stripes, I will treat you in the exact same manner.
GTFO stupid bitch.
Didn't think I'd get a customer who'd top that, but last night I did.
Don't spit at me just because I asked to check your bags, you derro fucking cunt. So glad it didn't land on me, who knows what diseases you have... :S
I think I need a new job.

'dear' customers: why do you always insist on coming into the shop 10 minutes before close when we're packing up?
business is dead half the day and as soon as it looks like i might be able to close on time some moron decides to pay with cash when i've already counted the till

dear customer,
day1. you called me to check up on a cheque you issued to us and then a few months later you sent us a credit note and you wanted me to find out why we used the credit note when a cheque was given out. so i said ok i will look into that and find out and call you back.
day 2. you called me back again and explained the whole drama. i said yes i haven't looked into it yet but i will call you back asap.
day 3. called back. and asked why have i not called her back yet she said i said i will call her back but haven't heard anything. i said i'm sorry but i haven't had a chance to look at it yet and i will get back to you straight away once i find something. (the cheque was issued in 2009, i wasnt here then so its harder for me to find out) so she asked me when will you find out? i said i didnt know as im in the middle of something and can't do anything else yet. but i will call you back. she then asked when are you going to call back? this year? im like. uh der. (thinking gtfo stupid woman) then shes like 'at the end of the month?' i said yes i hope so (because we have an early half financial year thing going on where we need to pay ALL invoices by the end of month April) then shes like well you've only got one day to go. then she asked for my supervisor. (she was on the phone at the time) so i told her n said i will get her to call you back.
so i told my supervisor everything and why all the delay n crap. its pretty understandable if you are working in my area. so yeah.
its not my fault you sent a cheque then a credit. as if we'd check to see if a cheque was previously sent out everytime we get a credit note. fucking fucker. go call my supervisor see if i care. just gtfo. kthnxbai

sometimes i have to be on a checkout, and on those occasions some nondescript older folk often like to inform me that they're "keeping me in a job" (for the few months until i'm done there!) by electing not to utilise the self-serve facility available at my place of employ
i feel like telling them to 'learn 2 economics'. however, i usually agree because i like subtly badmouthing the company and feeding their prejudices, and they like it too.

1. The doors are closing. The lights are off. We've done an "attention customers..." over the PA. GET THE FUCK OUT.
2. Not everything on a trolley is marked-down stock. I'm just moving it from one end of the store to the other - don't attack it like saving $3 is the most important thing in the world.
3. When I'm right next to you, obviously straightening things up at the end of the day, don't tear apart the tables/areas I've just finished. If something falls on the ground, pick it up and put it back where you found it. Stop being so damn rude.
4. When there is too much cash in the till, it gets taken out the back. You cannot withdraw $1000 from my till, I'm not allowed to keep that much at the front of the store. You cannot get angry at me for not allowing you to withdraw said huge amounts of money.
5. Stop talking on your fucking phone, then throwing money at me like I'm some kind of monkey-slave. Bitch, if I could refuse to serve you...

*When it's busy don't let your little precious children pay for their shitty toys separately and hold up the rest of the line.
*It says swipe or insert your card. THe machine doesn't know what type of card you have an neither do i unless you show it to me, so don't get annoyed when you do it the wrong way.

*If you have a problem with the price tell us before you pay for it
*No i'm serving customers, you can't return that item here, how bout you go to the desk with the big sign saying returns here

*the shop is close dno you can not come in
*You don't know me don't use the name on my badge most of the time i've switched it, do your eally think my name is manfred?
*Don't try and scan your discount card yourself, i am capable of doing that myself
*I'm sorry we don't accept credit on your debit cards anymore, but do you really htink im secretly the head of Big W? yelling at me isnt going to change anything?
*No we don't accept westfield cards! i don't give a shit if its a special one that says it will be accepted anywhere eftpos is avaliable, if you read the card it says we don't need to accept it

Red Rooster and Drive Thrus
- dont be suprised if you dont get a refund because you changed your mind
- dont say large rooster roll when you dont want a meal. it only comes in one size.
- a classic roast is not a whole chicken. so stop bringing in your buy 1 get 1 free coupons and expect to get 2 whole chickens.
- its bad enough getting heaps of coins but i dont need the lint and random hairs from your pocket too.
- dont put your kids on the counter if they are perfectly capable of standing. whats wrong with the floor?
- if you want a certain piece of chicken, thats fine but dont ask for it when im about to hand you your order. that goes for no salt on chips too.
- no you cant get coleslaw instead of the mash n gravy in the big deal.
- its not cute when kids put greasy handprints on the doors or windows.
- you cant make up your own price for a meal. pay the set price or go somewhere else.
- dont shout at the box 'hello hello?' in a naggy voice and not know what you want to order
- let the driver of the car order. i cant hear you passenger.
- sorry could you repeat that? your screaming child, barking dog and terrible music is making it hard for me to hear you.
- dont drive straight through to the window and ask me about every item we have. thats what the menu board is for. reverse your car and order at the box.
- dont park so far away from the window and put your hand out a little bit so that i have to jump out of the window just to reach you
- the lights are off. the chairs are stacked. the doors are locked. Yes we are closed.

And seriously people, express is 15 items or less! Don't ask me if it's ok because I have to fucking say yes, but there is no rule prohibiting me from giving you the dirtiest of death stares while you wait in a line that is already massive! Fuck off! And to supervisors who send these people to express, I want you to DIE!
