#I hate working customer service

[jellyshark-jester]

Me yesterday before my slumber of doom when I was at work:

Rant/vent under

I hate men i hate men sm I hate them I just hate men so fucking much omg ndjdbiihjd Well I don’t hate ppl cuz I normally can’t find the energy to care enough to hate but when I do omg it’s a visceral hatred.

Anyways so backstory I was sexually harassed at work by a man cuz he saw my they/them pin and got really offended anyways I won’t go into details but he said a lot of gross things to me and by the end he said “good discussion” and try to shake my hand, I just looked at him and say enjoy ur food cuz fuck him, but he’s back a few moths later, I completely forgot about him and he’s back and then have the nerve to ask me if I’m still “they/them” and trying to ask invasive questions like bro fuck off

Anyways I have never so badly want to spit in a costumers food, just open that container and spit in his chicken chowmain and tell him to have a nice day.

I should be happy I didn’t get physically assaulted but I’m not letting gross comments be the bare minimum cuz the bare minimum is for him to mind his fucking business and maybe go shove a brick up his ass or something

Sorry just thinking about that made me sad when I remembered it… and also it was just a rough week I had 5 days shifts all til 10 and I was just tired and wanna go home, also can ppl just not come in to take aways 2 min before we closed like bro please I wanna go home it’s 10 and I have to walk back by myself

And can you not make out for a min while picking ur food this is already taking so long I just wanna closed the shop and go home ;-;

In the past, people in the Animal Crossing community would make fun of Tom Nook as a sleazy landlord. Since then, he's really rehabilitated his image as this 'heart of gold' businessman (he's the one who puts bells and furniture in trees for you to find! he adopted orphans! he donates to charity!), but New Horizons genuinely paints the most devious version of him.

He's successfully privatized settler colonialism: you pay HIM to move to a "deserted island" (which apparently the oceans in the AC world are just full of) and start a colony that he is directly invested in. At best he's running a weird vacation package scam (you arrive on the island with no money and in debt for "using his services"). At worst, he's using you to set up company towns. For god's sake, he literally has his own fake currency that he forces you to use to pay off your debt. But don't worry, he's repackaged it in a way that definitely doesn't sound like an MLM scam: the Nook Mileage Program!

You're no longer just his tenant or his temporary part-timer, you're his business lackey. The entire tutorial section of the game has you spending actual weeks running around completing tasks and doing hard labor to set up his colony. You're even tasked with preparing his properties and finding buyers for them. No, you aren't a tenant anymore. You work for the landlord. You are directly responsible for finding tenants for him. And he doesn't even fucking pay you. Not for setting up town hall and museum, or his nephew's shop –– which is the ONLY store on the entire island that sells necessities –– or bringing KK Slider to town, or helping populate his town. Not a single cent. No, actually, you have to pay HIM to BUY infrastructure like bridges and stairs and park benches. And all the while, he's telling you're the "resident representative"; you get to call the shots! That the reward is the community's progress. That what you're doing is in everyone's best interest (but most importantly, his).

Since NH's release, people have done a lot of legwork to say that Tom Nook isn't a capitalist while the game shows him at his very worst. He owns the only general store in town. You're forced to use a phone that he modified and branded as his own. Buy Nook-branded furniture and merchandise at the self-serve kiosk in the town hall, a governmental building! There's no conflict of interest here!

But hey, if you're tired of being the landlord/business mogul's goon, you can also find work as a deluxe resort home designer for a company that also pays you in their special company currency that can only be used to buy their products instead of a real salary! Because that's what the Animal Crossing franchise needs! More vacation homes!!!

people who have faith in humanity and see it as inheritly good or always capable of change clearly never worked customer service or had to deal with toxic underpaid job. i love humans i really do. but sometimes i hate every inch of earth they came to be on.

When Somebody Loved Me 🌸

Back when it was Jttw days & they were ⤴️ traveling with the group

Modern day & maybe reincarnated Crepe ⤵️

So naturally...

EDIT: it's fixed now 😊

The more things change to more, they stay the same (at least that's something I hear often enough 🤷‍♀️)

Ramblings below

This is my own interpretation of modern day!Sun Wukong and what he became after the events Jttw. He's still the same powerful Sun Wukong we all know, & love (despite questionable morals), but He has full dad bod underneath his depressed, "but totally over it" single man pajama sweats. The blue bead on the end of his braid was made from Crepe's blue glass bead earring.

He lives almost entirely on Flower Fruit Mountain, only occasionally coming down & and amazingly, he ended up finding an extremely familiar face 🤔✨️

What is it with working food service and expecting you to be robotic and grey-rock your way through an entire 8+ hour shift? I also don’t understand why your job is at risk if you don’t.

No, I’m not going to continue being kind to you if you are continuously rude to me.

No, I’m not going to sit there and let you berate and verbally abuse me over food - you can buy and cook yourself - without saying sum back.

No, I’m not going to exhaust myself after doing 17.5 different things in the span of under 2 minutes because we are being timed by saying hello and goodbye to every single person that comes to my window — I’m in the middle of taking back to back orders, please for the love of god stop taking it personal.

No, I’m not going to kill myself running an entire station (or 3) by myself only to lick and kiss the top and bottom of your shoes bc you feel you’re entitled to free food and labor bc your fries weren’t fresh enough to your liking.

I’m tired AF of working for a public that will never respect me bc they have literally been taught since grade school to disrespect me. Im tired AF of that being the normal.

It’s 2024. Tip your fucking waitress. Be kind to your fast food cashier, who probably never gets to leave the window, and doesn’t touch your food on most occasions. Stop bitching bc you think you’re owed something by being there. Stop bitching bc you’ve been programmed to consume and think you’re correct in doing so. Stop bitching bc you got your food in five minutes when you should have got it in one - cook at home.

I’m sick of serving rude ass entitled ass people who think they know sum because they think my job is easy and they think they are too good to work it.

Literally if you’re rude and malicious to service workers for any reason outside of they were rude or malicious to you first, you can actually go fuck yourself, disrespectfully. You don’t deserve the convenience of our job, and you and your parent/guardian should be ashamed of yourselves.

Hiiiii guysssss <33

[solargeist]

despite my previous post, I don’t know how to handle when people talk abt things I don’t know or understand bc I focus too hard on my own reactions so I don’t accidentally offend them bc there’s only so many times you can say “oh really?” before you sound sarcastic ‼️💥

anything that i say while working my food service job genuinely can’t b held against me

Hey, I know it has been (checks blank wrist) nearly two years, and while you and I both know this account is probably completely dead, I need some monetary help while I have your attention. My car died a month ago and I'm going to have to get a new one. I just barely have enough for it, but that'll leave me with no money for other living expenses. I'm trying to save up to move across the country to live with my bf, and having to spend nearly 550 a month for car financing and insurance is going to kill my funds. I work minimum wage at a convenience store, and am going to be moving with my family and will be out of a job for a bit. I want to make sure I have enough to keep making payments during the unemployment period. But, you'll get something in return for your support!

I'm doing art commissions (for those who have seen my art on here, I've improved quite a lot!), starting at a base rate of $5, up to $30 (minus add ons). The information for it is here . Any interaction with it is appreciated.

Thank you for your time, and thanks for supporting this silly project. Maybe I'll kick it back up if enough people want me to!

Urgghhhh. I do not enjoy My Job.

[running-in-the-dark]

I ordered some specific screws I need for some of my shelves and the cabinets in the kitchen. they arrived today. except I ordered them to the nearest Packstation because that way shipping was free. which would be great and very convenient, except it's app-controlled and for some fucking reason those damn things don't work with my phone. or my previous phone. or my partner's phone.

they do work with my iPad though - great, I charged it yesterday so that should be fine. but oh no, it was at 1% battery (and then died while I was trying to connect to the wifi). apparently the charging cable is broken. and I can't find the only other lightning cable that I own because we are in the middle of moving so I have no idea where that thing would be. sooo either I find the cable or those screws will have to stay there until Monday when I can buy a new cable. this is so unnecessary and annoying.
