Customer service goes out the window when you're clearly an idiot!

[RiskyRetail]

This is more of a rant than AIBU, feel free to join me...

So I work in a supermarket convenience store. I was on the early shift yesterday and surprise surprise, people are still ignoring social distancing and essential travel... Just a few examples of people being idiots include...

• Old people coming in to buy a newspaper
• People coming to buy lottery tickets

Neither are food or medicine. What do people not understand about essential travel?

• People coming to the till with a single item... Go to the self checkout FFS 😡
• People not understanding the 2m distance. You don't need to be peeking over my shoulder whilst I'm dealing with the self scan.
• People realising there's a queue to get into the shop and then grunting forget it. If you can 'forget it', it is clearly not essential so why the fuck are you out and about?

I was very snappy with a few customers yesterday but I'm beyond caring. I'm not going to stand with a smile while your idiotic behaviour puts me and people I care about at risk!

@StraightTalkingSandra I'll think about the error of my grammatical ways while I'm risking my life serving people like you ...

Why is this bunfight still standing?

@wanderings new player entered the game

nottoday3000 - that's funny, I'm in the armed forces! Look like we are both risking our lives! Isn't that nice! I'll think of you too my little cherub when I'm risking my life serving my country. You know, you CAN always get another job, just like I can.

Frontlineson - thanks for the comprehension lesson. Much love xxxxx

There is really surprising number of armed forces people and armed forces spouses on MN. 😱

I do love a good bunfight! Cinnamin swirl for me. I make my own so don't have a go at me for going to the supermarket to buy one of those Jus-Rol packs!

BodiesMakeForGoodFertiliser - would you like my service number or a copy of my payslip?

Not on my bingo card yet: frothing zealots.

So far I have (not just this thread):
Selfish arseholes
(Somebody’s DC) is an arrogant little shit
Body bags in the street
Ignorant twunts

But not many people are using my favourite: holier than thou.

wanderings - you've forgotten "we are all going to die" and "world war 3."

@wanderings is that a typo or is it really twunts?😂

Oh you missed frothing zealots, it’s definitely here.

BodiesMakeForGoodFertiliser - oh well, it's a good job we don't know each other in real life then! Btw - personal insults aren't allowed here love. I appreciate you are scared and hiding behind your username though. I hope you feel better soon! xxxxxx

lol ole Sandra has an English degree and holds down some job in the 'armed forces'....come on Mumsnetters, you are supposed to be impressed by that not laugh at her!!

@StraightTalkingSandra it's cinnamon swirl sweetheart not cinnamin! Just so you can go back over your English degree and correct that misspelling. Much love xxxx

Only thing on the bingo which bugs me is the body bags. I couldn't make fun of it. The death in these cases is extremely sad and lonely thing
