    I'm shocked at the number of people who think supermarket staff should be allowed to behave badly because they earn low wages or work for bad employers. As for the expressions of irritation (and even "hate"!) toward customers who habitually buy reduced goods; these employees are clearly in the wrong job.

    It appears that the posters who are childishly insulting the OP (there are places on the internet where it may be appropriate to call somebody a "retard", but this site is not one of them) are the same kind of people that give appalling customer service in supermarkets such as Morrisons.
    Love the animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble their joy, don't harrass them, don't deprive them of their happiness.

    Could I suggest that you ask your line manager to send you for further customer service training? If you don't like your job, then perhaps go re-train, go to college and further your education etc or if already studying, consider part time work away from the public. I cannot believe for one minute that Morrison's have to scratch the bottom of the barrel for this calibre of staff? :confused:

    thanks for highlighting certain areas of my post, in case you arent aware, jobs are hard to come by at the moment, if this was an option then i would take it, unfortunately its not. How would more customer training help me, apologise to them for hitting me with their trolley? thank them for airing what they think of their partners or helping them get their shopping quicker so they can get their screaming kid home quicker.

    may i ask what your occupation is?

    or D) Replenish the shelves when the store is closed, or if open 24 hours, late evening.

    sometimes, you have to move pallets onto the shop floor during open hours, such as when the beers deals are on, or a really good priced deal that is moving fast.

    There's nearly always an alternative, seriously. Try jobcentreplus.gov.uk instead of yammering about how much you hate the customers who indirectly pay your wages.

    There's also a word for someone who knows full well that they hate their job, are getting stiffed while doing it, moans about it incessantly yet still does nothing about it through simple sloth disguised with a thin "well, there's nothing else out there" attempt at justification.

    That word is mug.

    14 pages over a cake discount.

    welcome to 'toomuchtimeonourhands.com'

    It's not the cake discount, it's the attitude of the staff member towards a member of the public. The cakes seem to be an easy distraction for the less intelligent on here ;)

    What has my occupation got anything to do with the customer service one receives in a store?

    The Morrisons staff member was at work and should have been doing her job, not her shopping.

    I agree that everyone should be entitled to special offers and discounts etc, but staff members reducing items and keeping them for themselves are gaining an unfair advantage over regular customers.

    That may be a perk of the job in some peoples opinions, but very unfair in others.

    I can see it would be annoying to the OP, but a bit of an over reaction for some cakes.
  • I like Cake.

    Yum at cake. Make some cake. Eat some cake. I want a cake. If you like cake, I’ll make you a cake. It won’t be made of toast or butter or pancakes. Unless it’s a pancake cake.

    You’re a cake face.

    I love cake. Yumyumyum. Cheesecake.

    I can’t make cheesecake. But I would if I could.

    Cake and Pie are the same thing. But also different things.

    Smile at cake. It will smile at you.

    Buy some cake. Eat some cake. Marry a cake. Sing about cake. Because…CAKE RULES THE WORLD.

    I ♥ Cake.

    Please like cake and I’ll make you a yummy cake not a biscuit. It will be chocolate or sponge or even apple cake or CHEEEEESE cake. Maybe I could make an ice cake with frozen stuff. Yummy cake.

    C a k e.


    LOVE CAKE, MAN
    Oh what's the bloody point...?
