Mwa ha ha ha... they'll never know if we talk crap about em...

To lead us off, I have the funniest STORY ever!

Ok the other night, my co-worker Aaron was working the drive-thru. It was funny. The customer was being a total a** and the sad part was when aaron was telling the customer how he was being and the customer didn't even know. Before the guy drove off, he said "man, that guy sounds like an a*****e" My co-worker nodded and said yep. After the guy left, he broke up luaghing. I looked at him and asked what was so funny. He told me, then I too started luaghing. Even the manager found it funny.

Pathetic...

I just rememberd one of the customers I had on my last day at Macca's...

This lady comes over while I'm serving someone and leans on the counter (she was practically lying on it) I finish serving the other customer & she slams 50 cents on the counter:

Me: stare Can I help you?
Lady: Sluufff sleerfff sleene....
Me: I'm gona take a random guess that you want a 50c cone.
So i charge her for a cone, make it & she leaves. 2 mins later she returns with a half eaten cone.

Lady: This Soft serve cone is SOFT!!! *begins to rant* (wow, she actually knows how to speak properly! eek Funny how people who can't talk properly, always know how speak loud & clear when they want to complain...)
Me: rolleyes I'll just go get the manager for you... *goes around back to talk to manager*
Me:*to manager* I have a complaint on counter...
Mgr: yeah, sure, whats the problem?
Me: Her soft serve cone is soft.
Mgr: eek She... What?
Me: Just make her go away, please?

Manager then deals with lady by refunding her cone, the lady then used her refunded 50c towards purchaing a thickshake. I went and hid, I did not want to wait around for the return: "My thickshake is THICK!!!"

Some people, seriously! The cone very average, its not like it was melting... we don't sell "hard" cones! Crazy lady...

Red: I understand how you feel. I used to work at Baskin Robbins for 6 months. I had plenty of stupid customers with stupid complaints. But since I was by myself most of the time, they got mad and left because I told them Im sorry and theres nothing I can do about it.

If I had manager powers at my current job, I'd be so evil yet awesome to my co-wokers and customers.

Can't say I ever had that one before! That's just... wow....

One of the girls on the phones at my work yesterday had a "Gas Emergency" (basically if someone calls up saying that they smell gas/hear a hissing near their gas meter/has had their dog bite through the gas pipe - ask me about that later -... basically, anything that could be a gas leak etc, we get their details, fill out a form & put them through to their gas distributor because it could potentially be rather dangerous).

So anyway, apparantly this lady has heard a hissing noise from her gas meter (not a good sign!)... for the past 3 weeks!!!

It only twigged with her that maybe she should call someone about it when her gas bill was high rolleyes . Nice work stupid. Everyone was laughing for quite some time after that.

Ok, so here's how my weekend went. I worked double shifts on saturday and sunday! On sunday, I was so tierd I almost started crying when the manager Franciso started being an a*****e to me and blamed me for giving someone the wrong order. Which I didn't. The new girl, who's a total ditz and claims shes worked at many other places before this, put the wrong burgers in drive-thru. A while after that, I had this annoying a** lady with the voice that sounded like nails on a chalk board.


Me: Hi, welcome to CarlsJr, I can take your order as soon as your ready!
Her: Hiiii, I would like a diet.
Me: A diet pepsi or a diet Dr.Pepper?
Her: I want a diiiiet soda! Diet diet diet diet diet diet!
I clicked the botton so she wouldn't hear me, plus I said it quietly.
Me: Fricken dumbass what do you want to drink?
Me: Would you like a diet pepsi ma'am?
Her: Yes please. Make sure to put a lid on it too! I want the lid marked diet. I want diet diet diet diet.
Me: Ok, what size would you like.
Her: I would like a diet soda.
Me: Ok, but what size would you like?
Her: Ummm, Large.
Me: Ok that'll be 2.49 at the window, thank you.
Her: Make sure to mark it diet.

Now, when she came to the window, I was expecting some evil b***h, but when she came up, I saw a sweet looking old lady. I let my co-woker collect and hand her the drink. I couldn't stand the lady.

The odd thing that happened on saturday was a customer who came in with a thick accent came and got two spicey chickens and soda. After I gave him his food and called him "sir", he speaks without an accent, and hands me a dollar. He hangs out for half hour longer after he finishes his food. Looks at the menu and orders a shake, after I gave it to him, he gives me another $2's. I looked at him and asked if he was a secret shopper testing me. After he left, I looked at the money in my hand and wondered what the hell was going on.

Nothing odd really happened yesterday. I'd have to say as soon as Franciso left and Maresa came in, things got better! She is such a cooler manager. She lets us use our cell's while we work as long as customers cant see us and as long as our ringer isn't turned on. So yeah, I had a long weekend, and never got a 3 page assignment done for math. Hopefully if I explain to my teacher how my weekend was, then maybe she'll give me an extra day for my homework.

i completely forgot about this one before. it was more creepy than stupid. a guy came in and was returning a bunch of wedding decorations because his wife asked him to. and it had been about 5 months and it was obvious they used them. i had to give him store credit because it had been more than 6 weeks and he started to freak out at me because it was about $250 worth of stuff and he said he never comes into our store and that he'll never use it. i really didnt want to deal with him so i got the manager out there and he was yelling at him too saying that it was a waste of money and that we should just give him the cash instead. and we had to keep explaining that we arent allowed to its against the store policy. after that he hung around my register for about 20 minutes just watching me.

At Subway, all the sandwiches are named after what they are. A turkey sandwich has turkey in it. A ham sandwich has ham on it. But we always get these questions:

"What's a turkey sandwich?"

"Um, well, that's a sandwich where you get turkey and cheese and whatever veggies you want."

"Oh. Okay."

But I think it's hilarious when people order like this:

"Hi. What's a Veggie Sandwich?"

"It's a sandwich where you get your choice of cheese and whatever veggies you want."

"Oh. Okay. Well, that sounds good. I'll get one of those. But can I have turkey on it?"

"Sure, but that's a turkey sandwich."

Or the other night this guy came in and ordered a BLT, which stands for Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato. So I immediately reached for the bacon. And he's like, "Oh, no bacon please."

That's a veggie sandwich.

Why would he want to be pay like two dollars more to get a BLT without the bacon when he could just get a veggie sandwich and only put lettuce and tomato on it?

But worse, he didn't want lettuce or tomato either! He wanted spinach and banana peppers!

So how is this a BLT?

Dande: Wow, you work at subway? I have hook-ups with a subway locally. Anyways, I understand. People order a bigburger then get cheese. They see the .99 cent bigburger and think it'll be cheeper to get and put cheese on it. Ok, HELLO PEOPLE, it costs the same as the Big Cheeseburger.

Ya'll remember that lady I told you about with the voice of nail's on a chalkboard?

Yeah.......



She came back today. I reconized her voice INSTANTLY as she ordered. I was thinking to myself "********, its this lady". This time she talked less. I think she remembered to take her meds...

Not my customer but... one of the customer service girls was on one call for at least 45mins on friday (probably longer) with a customer who wouldn't explain what they want, had called another company earlier that day thinking it was us & then got confused & angry when the CS agent gave them different information to what the other company did.

Apparantly said customer was also convinced that the CS agent was a machine (the agent was heard very loudly insisting: "I am NOT a machine! I am a HUMAN BEING!")... yeah...
