I hate my job so much!
10 years ago
So I don't know if this is helpful/healthy but I don't want to kill myself today. No Today I want to kill my Co-worker.
At the place where I work, there is 1 cash register. He came up to look up a code for a customer. Fair enough. After he found the code and gave it to her, he stood there and talked to her, just talked, for a minute. In that time, another customer came up and I saw that I could help him. But since the register is walled off so only one person can get in, I could do nothing. I waited for 30 seconds and when my co-worker was still talking to this other lady, I just had to leave. Standing around doing nothing is not a good option while on the clock. after a while, he FINALLY stops talking (I think the first customer was the one to walk away) and he helps the other customer. After that, he comes storming up to me.
"YOU KNOW YOU COULD HAVE HELPED THAT ONE GUY! I WAS WITH ANOTHER CUSTOMER! I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT YOU HAD SO LITTLE COMMON SENSE!" He says as he hits his own forehead.
Yes, in his mind, it was MY FAULT.
30 minutes later, I am helping another customer and he comes up to talk to her, again just talk. Do you know how rude it is to try to be checking out a customer's order and having them distracted by my co-worker? And when I do get the order checked out, they still stand there and just talk. They even still just talk WHILE OTHER CUSTOMERS COME UP! Of course I can't say anything. If I do, that would only start things up again.
So yeah, I hate my job and this guy so much.

Just cuz he's older doesn't mean he has the right to chew your butt out. He shouldn't have been a chatty fuck nugget
