I know the feeling! Working in the convenience store we get all kinds of people. Most of whom, I don't have any problems with, the out-of-towners driving through, the semi-truck drivers, the little old ladies on their way to Bingo, the teenagers, the mom's with 4 kids back in the laundry and the construction workers working around the area, oh, I forgot the farmers! LOL All types of people from all kinds of walks of life. It is really interesting on a whole.
These are the kinds of people who really piss me off!
1. The devoted lottery ticket buyers, whether it is the lotto or the lottery, they blow my mind. Now granted they "ALL" aren't asses, but most are. For the simple fact, they think just because they are there every damn day to spend their hard earned money of tickets, the clerk, by God had better give THEM the winning ticket!!! (Like we have some control over this!)
2. The customers buying gas. Not all of them, but the ones who want to know why gas prices are so high. Right now we are paying $1.45 per gallon on unleaded, $1.51 for super unleaded, $1.55 for diesel. We tell them politely, we don't know why the gas is so high. It isn't that we are making tons of money on hiking up the gas prices over what we pay for it, we don't, we are only making 4 cents over what it costs us. I have a good idea it has something to do with gas taxes the stores have to pay just to have it shipped in from Oklahoma, compliments of our state's governor who put this tax into play back in July of this year. The customer grumbles and gripes, I totally understand how they feel, I feel the same way too. Just don't take it out on me. I have no control over this!
3. The customer who pitches a fit over the prices of the cigs. Another sore spot with me, being a smoker, I feel their pain too. I tell them, "Hey, I know what you are talking about, that is why I don't buy my smokes here, I go over the state line and get them alot cheaper at the Smoke Shop. I'll be glad to pick you up whatever you like!" That usually backs them off and I don't have to hear anymore about the prices. LOL Another thing I have no control over.
4. The customer that stands out there at the pump, who has the gas cap off and waiting for the gas to come and it doesn't, making nasty faces and mouthing nasty names at me from the pump. Yes, I can see you from the window! "Well pal, you have to flip the lever out there so I can authorize the pump!!!" It won't work if you don't do this! So please stop making faces and calling me nasty names because the gas isn't coming.
5. The customer who uses the laundry mat we have at the back of our store. They put 3 loads of clothes in one washer and then want their money back because the clothes didn't clean. They are not super duper huge washers, just the usual size, they won't hold, let alone clean that many loads of clothes at one time! So, NO you can't get a refund, especially when the sign above the washers say, "One load of clothes at a time, Please!" Then that same customer will want their money back because those same 3 loads in one, didn't get dry after they had put 50 cents in the dryer! I can't imagine why they didn't get dry, can you?
People really do amaze me sometimes. LOL Joe Public is something else!
