Topic	Retail Workers: What little things do customers do that just annoys you?
Aristoph 07/21/17 10:33:12 PM #1:	1. Throwing cash/change on the counter instead of placing it into your outstretched hand. - This one is so irritating. I'm literally holding my hand out and open and you actively dodged it to throw your money on the counter underneath it. What the fuck? You actually put in extra effort to be an ass. I've done this back to customers a couple times. They always react with this really shocked face, and I say "I'm sorry, I just figured you might have some aversion to germs or something since you avoided my hand when you gave me your cash, so I didn't want to offend you." Two of them apologized to me, one just walked out. I consider it 3 wins. :-P 2. Setting items on the counter as far away as physically possible from you so you literally have to lean over the counter to reach it. - Seriously, our counter is already wider than it really needs to be to begin with. When you place it on the far corner opposite me, you're just being an inconsiderate ass. I usually just leave it closer to my side of the counter in response so they then have to lean over to grab it too. Nobody's said anything about this one yet. I think it's subtle enough that they just don't notice, but it's one of those simple pleasures for me. 3. Not paying attention to the prompts when using a credit/debit card. - This is just sheer stupidity at its finest. Our card reader has 3 prompts. First it asks if you want cash back, then to verify the amount, and then Yes/No for Debit/Credit. I've actually had someone fail at this 4 times in a single transaction. First he said Yes to cash back, then when it asked the amount he said he didn't want cash back. So I restarted and he hit No to cash back, and then immediately hit No to verify the amount and cancelled the transaction. I explained what he did, reset it, and he did the same thing again. The fourth attempt I walked him through step-by-step, and he hit Yes to Debit on the last question, then when asked for a PIN he said he wanted to run it as Credit. Then why the flying fuck did you say Yes for Debit when I explicitly told you to hit NO FOR CREDIT. -_- Fifth time's the charm, I guess. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules <cite>Aristoph posted [p:883365451] in Retail Wor...
