Customer Etiquette
Warning- Reading this can be hazardous to your health. Please do not read if you have never worked in retail because you will not understand. Please read and comment if you are willing to take a risk.
1. I’m not a main computer, I personally don’t control all the UPC or PLUs. I don’t control what something rings up so don’t yell and scream at me. I can fix it but it always help when you are not yelling at me.
2. It is a state law for me to card you for alcohol or tobacco. I’m sorry that you maybe older than 21, but if you don’t look older than 30 I must card you or I could lose my job. If you are older than 21 and think you look older than 30 but choose not to bring you ID than I’m sorry NO ALCOHOL OR TOBACCO FOR YOU.
3. When you buy something when you get something free 90% of the time it comes off at the end of the order. You have to look on your receipt and you will find where it came off (not normally at the end). Don’t yell at your cashier because it will come off 90% of the time and for those of you that fall into the 10% see #1.
4. Cell phone! If you want to know the total of your order or if you want me to talk to you at all put down your cell phone it takes like 5 minutes to get through the register. Martha can wait to know how your Great Dane, Big George is doing in his therapy sessions. This is what you do… “sorry I’m checking out let me call you on my way home.” Feel free to talk on your phone all the way through the store. Don’t make me feel like I’m bothering you when I have to say my speech at the beginning of your order. I’m sorry to interrupt you conversion but I need your loyalty card so you don’t freak out because the prices are not right…see #1.
5. Karma Karrels…Just because you are too lazy to walk your shopping cart 10 feet to put it in the carrel because you are leaving so it doesn’t matter, right? Wrong! Well, Karma has a way of biting you in the tokus. So when you come in crying at the service desk because your white, black, red or green vehicle got damage that is karma. It take like 30 seconds to walk you cart to the carrel and walk back to your car. Always remember they should change the name of the cart carrels to Karma Karrels.
6. Utility Clerks… Utility clerks are from the age of 15 and up, so when you apply for a job as a bagger they are not looking for someone with a degree in physics, dietician degree or even common sense. Unfortunately baggers (aka utility clerks) don’t know that cans can crush things, they probably haven’t got to that part of science in their high school classes. Trained baggers are as hard to come by as trained cashiers. Since both are thrown into the job without much guidance. Baggers should know the following
i. Bread can be smashed
ii. Eggs do break
iii. Cans smash things
iv. 3 includes 1 and 2
But a little tip or advice if you will if you don’t want your smash-able items smashed then bag it yourself. It is a risk. Remember that baggers don’t want to be baggers they want to be cashiers. Cashiers want to be baggers without getting carts. No one want to get carts please refer to #5.
Thank you for your time.

Getting my nails done
so i went and got my nails done and the lady that does my nails was telling me about one of her clients has lung cancer. She smoked like 25 years ago and now they have found lung cancer it is terminal. So she keep on going on and on about the dangers of smoking. I know the dangers of smoking kinda. But i am sure that she knows that i smoke it isn't like i hide it but it was just strange to hear her talk about this. I know that she was just trying to help but i found it uncomfortable.
Change
Why do things happen the way the do?
Why is it that so many people want change?
Do people really want change or is it the idea of change that they like?
Why does things happen that question your faith?
Is changing a good thing?
Is changing a bad thing?
Does it depend on what you change?
Does it depend on how you change?
Why do things happen that forces us into change?
Is that for the best of us?
Is it a way of getting back on track?
Did you know that you were off track to begin with?
Why does the word change have such a negitive idea behind it?
When you hear the word change do you cringe?
Does everyone like the idea of change?
Is habit better than change?
What makes a habit?
Is it doing something for a while and feeling comfortable?
Is anyone really ready of change?
Do you resist it to begin with?
Or do you just give in to it?
Did you know that change and cancer have the same number of letters?
Does cancer mean change?
Mom went to the doctor and they found three masses. One on the outside of her throat, one inside her lungs, and one outside of her lungs. I am so scared. She has to go in for a test on March 4th to find out if it is cancer. The waiting is what is killing everyone. I want to cry but i can't because i have to be the strong one. I don't have to be the strong one but I am the oldest and i feel i have to wear this mask. Everytime i look at mom i just want to hug her and kiss her and tell her how much i love her, because what if it is cancer. I don't know what i will do. I'm not ready for this...I can't handle this...What do i do? I know mom and dad have to be scared but...everything happens for a reason. So mom and dad were in an accident in october, if they wouldn't have wrecked their bike then we wouldn't have know about the masses...wow, that was a lightbulb turning on. What if mom dies from cancer and what if i don't get to say that final goodbye. I'm scared, I have known people with cancer but not this close...it is too close for me. I wished the test was tommorrow so we would know something. I hate waiting. I'm just like my mom, we hold everything in until we explode. It isn't healthy to say the least but that is how we handle things. So I guess that someday i will just explode and kill everyone...lol... I see so much of my mom in me, kinda scarey but i like it that way. Why do bad things happen to good people? My mom is a great person, sweet, caring, loving, she would do anything for you. I'm just scared. I am hoping and praying that she doesn't have cancer, I don't think any of us can handle that. Too much...Too fast...
P.s. i need change but i'm not sure if i am ready. I like to take baby steps while changing it works better for me.
With love
