my job

if you think your job suxx then wait till u hear about mine.

we have a group of customers we despise. they are called Wholesalers, they come to our store to buy large quantities of cheap promotion items. these items are meant for the general populace and are often sold below costs. These items are meant for our actual customers who come and shop at the store.

these wholesaler would often take advantage of the low price to buy in bulk so that they can sell it back at a big profit. of course this defeats the purpose of us making the price low.. imagine if they bought most of the items on promotion. our actual customers wouldnt be able to buy any because of the limited stock we have.

so all retailers put a limit on these items, 2 per customer and so on. today we have such items, Milo 3 in 1 and Coke can carton. it is limited at 2 per customer per day, which means, it doesnt matter if they buy 2 at a time, each customer is only entitled to buy only two of it, even if he or she comes at a later time.

well today, one such family of wholesalers came by, they always do, consisting of a total of 6 people, including small children...

I got yelled at today when i wouldnt let the cashiers complete their transaction. They were yelling at me in chinese at the top of the lungs and screaming to the other customers how lousy jusco is and other mean, hurtful and basically fucked up. me being the way that I am just ignored everybody, no matter what they said, I just bowed and replied "only 2 per customer per day". guess what, THE FUCKING BITCH threw a packet of Milo at my face. my glasses flew off. fuck man who they fuck do they think they are. well fuck them...

funny thing, I didnt do nothing. i still wont let them pay and i still stood there saying the things that i said earlier, of course I wanted to cry, i wanted to scream and strangle the fucking bitch but i didnt move and didnt change tactics. of course by then, due to the big crowd of onlookers, my assistant manager came. in the end, we let them buy 6 sets(6x2=12) which is 12 of each items.. however, since they already bought 2 sets, that leaves 4 more.

my deputy manager then came by and let them take 2 more sets.

tell me now, HOW FUCKED IS MY JOB? i went back to work after that, even stayed back because i needed to finish a bunch of reports.

Geeze... your job sounds like a drag. I kinda feel your pain though... I work in a pharmacy, and we get the worst, drug-hungry people ever.

husz, this is my first post in your comments.. Hope you don't mind.

Sorry to hear about the bitch incident. I wonder whether you should have made a police report? Consider like aggravation/assault charge in public area. Lagi pun, sure ada security camera, record the whole thing, right? Besides, other customers also can become your witness.

*sigh*

It's customers like them bitch lah yang selalu memburukkan identiti rakyat Malaysia.

Take care.. and cheer up mate!

There is no better word for it...your manager is F*CKED. They have no balls, they are supposed to support you otherwise customer's will lose respect and do whatever they want to do. Kudos to you for sticking to your guns, MUCH respect but you should have sued that B*TCH. In a utopian world you would have been promoted, your manager's sacked and that woman in her own private little 6x4 'hotel' room. Goodness l love you for that, you are a man and a half!.

syabas! it's very encouraging when one reads about people who're brave enough to stand by the rules, despite the odds stacking against them. your painful episode with the difficult whole-f***ing-salers kinda remind me of neville longbottom's attempt at blocking harry potter's and gang sneaking out in themiddle of the night to do (what? alamak, dah tak ingat lah. tak ingat which book it is now. anyway... the point is...) i agree with 1st anon guy - your sup should've backed you up, and not acquiesce to that rude, uncivilised b***h!
rules are rules. they should not be broken, and enforcement should be thorough - no fear, no favour...
