Aeronaut 647 Posted October 11, 2018 a few days ago, we've been having some trouble with this homeless lady that wanders in. i don't want to assume but i want to say she's mentally unwell as she will try to stay in the shop and mumble to herself while we try to help customers with their cookie orders. i feel bad for her but there's only so much i can do to help her while trying to perform my doodies of my job. it doesn't help that she really stinks. she's unfortunately also one of those types who seems to refuse the city's help in regards to her mental help and homelessness. the last time she came in, she walks in with a ciggy and i immediately told her that she can't smoke in her. then she went completely hostile on me, yelling at me saying that i'm a bad person and that i've blamed her for everything. the last time she's been in, she started yelling at staff because the police took too long to come and help her. i just hit retail mode and go "im sorry about that." she goes "yeah yeah." she's still in the doorway with these two customers looking on a bit confused, so i try to move the conversation to her leaving the store by saying "i hope you have a good night." whole encounter lasts only 2 minutes tops but she made me feel sad because- she responds "i hope you have a terrible night." ...that really hurt man.

StrelitziaDeWitt 56 Posted October 11, 2018 I've had a job that really was just telling people: No you can't drive with your car to the center of the city because there is a festival going on, and them trying to give every excuse so they could drive through. None drove through my barricade and some of them were really mad about it too. Moral of the story, eventually it will numb you what people say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
