It really didn't surprise me when he told me about this. Meh, i don't deal with the public at work. Me and my co-workers sit around and talk about games and movies while we work.
The most customer interaction I get is calling a movie theatre because they royally screwed something up.

Good news there, Flik. The Home Depot here... half the employees are pretty rude, and treat customers like idiots. Like, they only have self-checkout, and we bought a sheet of wood, so we go to checkout, get ready to use the self-checkout, and she's all "No! Wait, I'll do it!", runs over does what you're s'posed to do on it, scans it, and pushes all the buttons "Are you paying with cash, credit card?" saying all too hastily, so we fork over the cash, she even puts it in the machine... oh my god. wahmbulance

Maybe they tell you all to do that?? I dunno, but it seemed like she just didn't want to deal with any customers' problems...

I've never run self check out so I don't know. Training fo rit though. Maybe it's in there. But I'm pretty sure we're not supposed to take you cash and put it in the machine for you. lol

Ever heard of Rentrak? That's where I work. If you haven't, ask one of the managers or something. they should know. The managers send in grosses to us each night and we put them in a database, but sometimes the reports come to us totally f#$í up.

Why? He won't be able to get a job there for a while. He needs to level his work skills by at least a few more month points.
