One day, back when I was a barista, I was on the closing shift and right before close an old lady wearing a custom t-shirt that said "I fuck gamers for free" called me a twink to my face and when i asked how she knew that word she said she bullies people on tumblr for fun.
Then she asked me what my blog was called and I said "how did you know i had a tumblr?" and she didn't say anything, she just looked at me.
So I just told her and she said "I know you, you post like someone who would cry if I tossed a football at you."
At this point i was choking back tears but I managed to stammer out "d-do you want to order something?"
After a couple seconds she says "gimme a whiskey sour, top shelf stuff only" and when I told her we didn't sell alcohol, she shrugged and popped her heelies out.
On her way out the door, she shouted back at me "Buffy ended decades ago, you gotta let it go" and i swear she just vanished.
Do you think this was a sign?
#btvs#customer service memories#i got fired the next day because my boss said my coffee tasted like it was made in an airport saxby's

on one hand, my mental state might have been the rockiest this week that it has been in like. quite a while.
on the other hand, I just remembered that insomnia cookies fucked the hell out of my order a few weeks ago and they offered to resend the whole thing for free any time in the next month so I get ~free cookies~ tonight.
#have you ever had an order fucked up so badly that even the customer service person was like ???#lmao#anyway I think it's just a mixture of personal stress and my hormones having a weird spike#I wasn't really sure what was happening until I started having the cramps from hell last night even though they are NOT due lmao#so I'm trying to be gentle with myself even though I'm on extreme work deadline and family stuff is Happening#lot of bad memories being stirred up recently but there's not a lot I can really do about it so#cookies it is#just me

crystal's character arc happened because she had to work with someone who was extremely condescending to keep a low paying job to make rent.
and i guess charles and niko and jenny refusing to take any shit and repaying it with kindness, if not niceness, maybe also had an effect i guess
#i rewatched and the first conversation that crystal and charles has she makes specific digs meant to cause a reaction#and empathize with her having the worst day of her life so far threw her off enough to get out of the cycle#source: teddybearsandlightningstorms#dead boy detectives#a customer service job plus missing memories equals a much more compassionate/empathetic person

#okay random story time i don't know why im narrating this or how i even stumbled upon this memory rn#but i generally do sad vents in the tags and for a change this is a funny one#so back in highschool (i say highschool but i mean junior college) i used to visit this park near my house a lot#i was an sg kid back then and the thing about parks there is that they're kinda beach-parks and they have the best cycling/running tracks#they're also really massive parks so i used to go often. sometimes bicycling. other times walking. yeah. the park was like my sanctuary#anyway. there are quite a few bike rental areas in the park and there was a cute lil shop next to this one particular rental place#and they sold like biscuits and water and icecreams and stuff and i went there a lot#and on one particular day i went there and there was this guy around my age part timing at that shop#now again this might be culture specific bc i dont see it in india but part timing in uni/pre-uni is pretty common is sg#a lot of shops and restaurants employ teenagers to twenty something ppl for part time jobs... anyway im just adding context#point is that i had walked to the park with my mum that day and she told me to go buy a couple icecreams so i went to the shop#and i saw this guy around my age and like. not to be a simp but this dude was so pretty?#like he saw someone had come to the counter so he looked up and shot a smile and i thought i got slapped by sunlight#i could spend the next several lines going on about his pretty tan skin and his glowing raven eyes but this is pathetic enough so ill stop#anyway he saw me and smiled really wide (customer service smile- i thought to myself) and i smiled back and asked for icecreams or whatever#and then this guy started getting chatty right. so he was all 'you come here (to the park) often right? ive seen you with your bike a lot'#see now. the problem with me is that i always think im bothering people. this poor dude was attempting to make conversation#and i was replying with one word answers#and i wasn't even realizing that he didnt want that. bc he kept asking more questions and i. kept. shutting them down.#then when he gave me the icecream he was all 'are you here alone? icecream alone is no fun... i could keep you company if you want..?'#which. he was being really cute about right. but because im so fucking dense i was all 'oh no i came with my mom actually'#and he went 'aw man' in this really cute but faux sad way which i didnt understand at the time and i left and then#after three full fucking days. i realized this man was tryna hit on me?#and then i went to the park like a week later and he was gone. poof. i even thought of asking the uncle in charge of that place#then i got too embarrassed and chickened out#yeah so turns out my neurodivergence neutralizes any sort of rizz that comes my way#i could've been chilling with a cute boyf rn but no😩 this is my destiny#megumi in the tags

hey like actually what's so hard about respecting people that work in retail or fast food. like why are you cussing out this person who is just trying to help give you your food. why are you mad they can't control the prices of the product. go home. if you are in a bad mood go home. and stay offline till it passes. why is it so hard.
#fast food#retail#customer service#the problem with a looot of negative interactions is that people feel entitled#or they are already in a bad mood and can't stand to wait an extra 5 minutes for something#these employees are real human people with feelings and thoughts and memories#and you will be remembered. believe that.

If you’re wondering, rye how do you work a service job if you’re scared of talking to people and also have a bit of face blindness, let me tell you. It’s so so hard I hate this job
#hey everyone yeah that’s right I’m at work rn oh but rye I thought you were on break yeah I am#chatterye#my hands haven’t stopped shaking since our first customer came in this morning#I never get over the nerves the sound of the phone still makes me jump I still stumble over my words#also for the face blindness; I go by three factors#gender ethnicity and accessories#glasses no classes color of the clothing purse no purse piercings#hair color hair style etc etc etc I do not remember what the face looks like at all though#sometimes I just have to make my best guess and usually I’m right#I have a good memory just not w faces#also some people are talking about arcane rn#if I didn’t have to work this job I would never step foot in service again#today I said red and purple cabbage. that’s the same thing.#we have purple/red and WHITE cabbage

this is a formal apology for every time i've read ur fnaf theories, gone "ah... of course! yes!" and then forgotten to respond
This is a formal apology for every time I've read one of your asks, not immediately had a TQ&/E, and forgotten to respond

customer: hey so i've got five ears of corn and a watermelon in my cart. me, inputting them with item lookup so he doesn't have to unload them: oh okay cool. is it seeded or seedless? customer: ... what? me, thinking he didn't hear me: sorry, is it seeded or seedless? customer, glaring at me like i'm a complete idiot: ... it's CORN. the hell do you mean seeded or seedless, it's goddamn corn. >:[ me: ... customer: ... me: sorry, sir, i meant the watermelon. i'm sorry, i should have specified. my bad. :) customer: oh well how the hell should i know if it has seeds or not? it's fuckin whatever the $5.99 one is. me, internally combusting: oh okay, great! ^o^
#hhhhh customer service is funnn#the area i live in is rural and has a ton of campgrounds every which way#so around memorial day folks tend to head up here from the bigger cities like pittsburgh kinda en masse#to spend the long weekend camping#and most of them are really nice! but. when they're not they're NOOOT.

When I worked at a clown fast food chain, I used to be a guest experience leader so basically customer service and promoting the current campaign products. I had to stay in front of the order screens and help the clients.
Usual day, nothing special and ofc I helped people order. Most kids know how to, but they also need it some of them. You interact with clients so much that you lose track of the clients since you have to promote the products to each person.
I helped this group of kids make their order.
Time passed and I went in front of the counter to give the clients their orders.
A lady comes up to me and gives me a bracelet. I ask her what's with that and she says the kids made it for the "nice girl that helped them with the order" and "it's the company colors and a burger".
It was so wholesome and completely made my day

This, from the date, is just peak frustration in customer service during the first year of covid...
I can so relate....
Not so much from the screaming.... but co-workers dealing with customers who were way more idiot than usual...
31 January 2025
“Samantha thinks that the walk-in is soundproof.”
[muffled screaming]
“And we just… haven’t told her that it’s not.”

Memory 2#
you are at a loss, face down on a bed
you aren't tired, not physically at least.
the mattress feels more like a graphite eraser than a proper bed but it serves its purpose well enough.
a door beside you opens
you barely turn your head just enough to see yet another blurry person in hospital scrubs enter holding something or other from the corner of your eye
(great that nurse is back)
a young woman's voice calls out into the small room
"Penel-"
"please don't..."
you didn't mean to trail off like that
its been awhile since you've been able to get words out.
you sigh, beginning to sit upright and fumbling a bit for your glasses
"...just Penny"
"Alright then, Penny"
"we were able to make a compromise"
she says, placing your now neatly folded hoodie on the bed beside you
"..."
"thank you"
"You are very welcome, Penny. is there anything else you need me to get for you?"
"thats all I think"
"don't be afraid to ask if you do, ok?"
you nod before she heads out
turning your attention back to your hoodie which has had its drawstring removed.
placing your glasses off to the side, you pull the hoodie over your head and back into its one and only home on your person.
you lay back, once more in the comforting embrace of familiarity and peer up at the school-like paneled ceiling while thinking to yourself; I need to get the fuck out of here-
#//pov: they threw your ass in the mental institution#asks#pesky implications…#//btw imagine the psych nurse having chronic customer service voice#//shes medical personnel girlie is NOT comforting#rotomblr#pokeblogging#rotumblr#pokemon rp#unreality#pokemon irl#//dont ask what possessed me to make this#No thanks for the memories#grippy sock vacation
