face grease
Eeeeww.
You know what I hate? When families with little kids walk by the store and the kids drag their grubby fingers along the length of the whoooole storefront. Which is almost entirely glass. 😡

I hate that... then they will read the hours of operation sign and look at their watch, then try to open the door again and repeat that process every 5 min.... When i get to the store there are opening processes i have to complete before i can open the store, if there wasn't then i could get here at time of open and get a extra half hour of sleep!!!!!
when people do that i wait until 10:00:59 to open. then i just unlock the door and walk back to the counter and CONTINUE cleaning while im listening to the problems that "make their LIFE hang in the balance"
they rarely get the point though.
one morning before i opened, i went next door to get myself a bagel and a drink. i'm coming ...

My favorite line is when they say, "They have you come in early?" Yes, yes they do, just to pay me to sit here, do nothing, and tell you I am not open for another half hour... morons!
Closing sucks too! Seriously, if I am in the middle of counting my drawer, have all my case lights off, ect, what makes you think I am open? What makes you think saying, "come on, you can't sell me just 1 card real quick" will change the fact I am closed and have been for 15 minutes?
Now its winter, not a common occurrence because of my coat, but my kiosk is in a grocery store, so when I would get off I would do some shopping... I would have people come up to me and ask why I wasn't at my kiosk, I w...

I had some jerk off push it past that, and tell me he was going to kick my ass if I didn't open back up. I pointed out that I was holding a bottle of wine, and that if I were to open up for him it would be to cancel his account for threatening an employee. He was also really loud, and security was already walking over to see what was up.
I also had some punk 16 year old kid threaten to meet me when I got off work and whoo...

or at that point did you want that bottle of wine more than ever? 👀
The guy that was harassing me when I was off and getting some wine for my lamb roast, and then an 8 pack of Guinness for myself, kinda got me juiced up, since he seemed like he meant business. If it wasn't for the fact the security guard was walking over, and I had a rather decent weapon in my hand, I probably would have handled it differently. But my adrenaline was flowing, I have many years of wrestling, and used to be a black belt in Karate.
