i hope i don't get fired....

I am sure you are fine. Tell the story, just as you did here and everything will be A-OK. Good employees are hard to come by.

geonagual Reviewed by geonagual on 02-25-2007. i hope i don't get fired.... this may get a little rant-y, but today i had something bad happen at work... i was working in the photo dept. and everything was shut down for the night, except for the inkjet refilling machine. (nightly maintanence) i already had 2 inkjets that i had to refill before i could go about my nightly cleaning and straightening of the store, which we have to do before we go home. normally i break down the machines at 8:30, so i can bring em back up before i leave at 11:30-midnight...well tonight Rating: 5

honestly i feel for you sometimes anything you say will never by good enoutgh and they dont even think of the fact that your at a poxy phto shop at 10:30pm at night i mean cmon people why be an asshole to someone working at that time? i go places late at night and thats where I TRY to be the good easy costomer with little efoort cos i know i wouldnt like to be there that late.


sum people r just wankers cos they think they can be, i mean you wouldnt hear them talking to you like that on the street would ya?

why not?

cos theyd get a slap and they know it they just hide behind the fact your the shop worker theyre the customer,



if i was your manager id tell her im gonna deal with you then id give give you an extra ten minute break to calm down abit........and leave it at that

[Skink]

If she worked at the same place she would of been different cause she would be dealing with asses like herself all day...

[BabySnookums]

then theres the fact that she could've been what they call a "mystery shopper"...someone that comes in and asks questions, posing as a customer, etc etc...to report back to corporate...to make sure we're giving good customer service....

but i doubt that one...

but hey...maybe since she's a fellow walgreens person...they wont take it as a complaint? hopefully LOL

if my leg still didn't hurt from the accident...OoOooo...i woulda took a "smoke break" when she left the store...

(when i first went into the office to tell the manager, even she told me i shoulda kicked the bitches ass *that manager kicks ass lol*, and later she said "hey, if she knows how to do it, i should make her clock in and do it her damned self")

[BabySnookums]

If they fire you, they'll go bankrupt.

LOL Billion...

Sorry about the bad day, sweetie. I think you're just fine at work, though. Like someone else recommended, just tell the story fully the way you did here for us, and they're going to understand reason. Frankly, I think the likelihood of your even being written up is low. That woman from the other store was an impatient hot-head, and you maintained your cool amazingly well. Sounds like your colleagues and the manager on duty will back you, too, if there's any question at all.

Hope your little boy is feeling better soon from his cut finger. And I hope today and this next week go better for your both!

Sue them if they fire you

[Weedhound]

IF they call you on it you just tell them the truth.....usually stuff like that doesn't get back to you because whoever (whomever?) the idiot customer is they usually calm down after the initial bs and realize they've been a bonehead. NOT that they will admit it to you but most often the idiot (having calmed) is as anxious as you are to drop the whole thing. If not, you tell the boss the story and call your co-workers for back-up. I don't thnk you will hear anything about it though.

PS Also tell your boss that if they get rid of you (and they won't so don't worry) you're going to send that particular woman in to replace you since she is obviously such a terrific example of excellent customer service.

I ask Why Did she want your store to do them?

was she lazy.....???? was her store broke down? why was she there?

If i was having any Intercompany transactions.....The store manager shoulod call the other store manager....and confirm the situation.

If she called as a customer, and asked to have them filled that is one thing.

If she is from another store.....she is LAST on the customer service list.


I would call her boss and tell Him or her, that i dont appreciate that employee coming to the store, (late and with a bad attitiude) and harrasing my employees......


If i was your store manager BabyS, I would handle it for you.....LOL


let us know what happens...

[Bong30]

so when that girl came from another store.... she should have walked in and talked to your store manager......

Then your store manager walks up to you and says.....

this is So and so from store #11....she needs these filled. you would have understodd what was going on.....

your store manager would have known you were short handed...and told the person to chill..............or to go to another store......
