To my wonderful first customer of the day! If you think the chocolate bar is too expensive, you can opt to not buy it without making sure your cashier knows that you think it’s too much and you’re not happy that the thing you’re not even buying is priced at what is actually an average convenience store price. And if you don’t like their non-apologetic response, maybe consider that while you’re out buying chocolate and pop on a holiday, picking at your cashier (who doesn’t set the prices), they are here working on a holiday listening to you whine. And when you throw in a condescending “Have a good day” and don’t get a response? Maybe just leave on your customer high horse and don’t stop to repeat: “I SAID, ‘Have a nice day.'” I sincerely hope you don’t enjoy yours because you don’t deserve it. -I SAID That’s Cool

I can’t stand customers and people in general who don’t see the big picture. What does she expect you to do? Quit over the prices your company sets? lol.
they actually said it twice? haha, “don’t tell me what kinda day to have, derpmeister”
bullies. trying to force you to respond to their parting remarks because you are ‘paid to be nice’. assholes. wouldn’t it be nice to just haul out that rocket launcher?
But aren’t YOU the representative of your store? Isn’t it YOUR job to listen to customer feedback, then pass it on to the owners/operators?
Yes dear OB, that IS your job – on top of selling over-priced shit on any given day.
And BEST of all, if you don’t like it, you’re not obliged to work there!
Another tough problem solved by Mr. Meaty – Social Problem Solving Interventionist
customers should know that bitching to the cashier is not going to change the price… they likely only went to that store on Good Friday because it was the only one open as most places were closed… so why bitch about something that you could wait to buy cheaper by driving down a street the very next day.
Mr Meaty you must be one of those “by-the-book” people that everyone hates. No empathy.
