If you want exceptional customer service then please visit the lovely pharmacy in the Halifax Shopping Centre! I can’t believe you have the audacity to throw my receipt at me and not say a single word to me throughout the transaction. How do you even still have your job? You’re a rude, negative, miserable cashier who can’t even say hello or even slightly smile at your customers? If that were me at my job I wouldn’t have still been there after 5 years, I would have been fired A LONG time ago. If you really hate your job then quit, but don’t take hating your life so much out on other people. You create a domino effect by making others sour for the rest of the day. —Shocked and Speechless

Is this the not-nearly-as-pretty-as-she-thinks-she-is one or the one with the big ol’ moose knuckle at the front of her pants?
Wonder if that’s the one who comments on my purchases when I have the pleasure of happening to get them as a cashier.
It’s not your job to comment on what I buy, and it’s none of your business what I’m buying, so stfu and scan my purchases and give me my damn receipt!
exceptional service, sounds to me like you got a disservice. but don’t let that little fact get your knickers in a bunch, go try talking to the motor vehicle dept., now there’s a fucking headache waiting for you. 3 and a half fucking hours, wasted from my life, that took 2 minutes to fix, and no, you could not do it by phone. darwin has awards for people like that, you know.
Now, I thought a moose knuckle is the male version of camel toe. There seems to be some dissent about it @ the urban dictionary. I could be mistaken.
Another reason why self checkout rules…..you don’t have to deal with those uneducated moronic cashiers.
It is not my job to talk to you, it is my job to get you in and out ASAP. If you are in a good mood, then I will be in a good mood. If you are in a shit mood, expect the same back. I am not there to be your friend, get over it.
everyone has a bad day, for example a cat dies.
in the case of a cashier, they still have to go to work.
ECHO64, Seriously? If i never said a single word to any of my customers at the cash I wouldn’t be where I am today. Thats just down right rude. Your job is to be efficient yes and get them in and out, but a friendly “Hello, How are you today” and a “have a great day/night” never hurt any one. I know when I go into a store to buy something and no one A. greets me or acknowledges me and B. does not say anything when I purchase something at their store does NOT make me want to purchase that item or even return to that store.
Even if that cashier is having a bad day don’t bring your Personal problems into work and blame them on innocent customers spending their time and money at your store. If you don’t enjoy working there then just quit. End of story!
Tru dat Lovepink. I was a cashier/retail drone for a lot of years and I still managed to keep a smile and keep my cool even when I was absolutely going mad on the inside over the rudeness of some customers. It takes a special kind of person to do that ;D. Which is why some people are cashiers forever and never get promoted.
Yep, it definitely takes a calm and patient person, which i am not sometimes, but ive been working as a cashier for a certain spotting goods company for 5 years and i can certainly say if i was rude to my customers I would have been fired a hell of a long time ago. It feels great to know that your stores customers are satisfied with their experience in the store and the product they are buying. Its not all about rushing them to get the hell out. It even makes me feel awesome when they go all the way as to write an email about how awesome their experience was all because of Myself and the employee who assisted them in whatever department they were buying from.
