I think you sound like an asshole.

    You don't know what life experiences have led to someone "choosing" to do a "minimal knowledge job" and having to deal with fuckfaces who look down on them all day. I can almost guarantee that they also work harder than you do. And yet, you rely on them to provide your food, other trivial bullshit and then make a post like this.

      It says a lot that you're even concerned about this. Those people want the exact same thing - for you to get in and get out. They aren't out to get you. Believe it or not, they're also actual human beings who do things like grocery shop and go to restaurants in their spare time and don't want to worry about being fucked with by some cunt.

        I can count on one hand the times I've felt disrespected by an employee anywhere.

        Here is a definition of the word entitled: believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. "kids who feel so entitled and think the world will revolve around them"

        People not doing their job properly are the same kind of fuckfaces as their fuckface clients.

        Murdering a murderer makes you a murderer.

        I can only speak for myself... I've always treated workers as real people. I never worked a retail job but have several friends who did, and I heard a lot of stories of shitty bosses and entitled customers. Even if I hadn't I would treat people properly - my parents tried not to raise an asshole.

        But, some of the stories my friends told were of obnoxious, slacker coworkers who took delight in messing with customers, and who felt that it was everyone else's fault that the world hadn't given them all that they expected.

        You're gonna encounter people like that in every field, every job. Unfortunately there is just a percentage of people like that wherever you go.

        They rely on me to use their store so they can get paid. If I think the service is bad, I won't come back, and if enough people think that, they'll have to close, and everyone loses their jobs.

        I don't care how hard someone is working or struggling or whatnot, I just want to get my stuff and get out as quickly as possible with minimal fuss. Hate other customers that cause shit same as the workers since it makes my day harder as well, but it's still not an excuse for bad service.

        The thing is you are right, the service industry is essentially you providing trivial bullshit to people who are willing to pay for it. It's one of the first to go in a shit economy, and it's also one of the easiest for your customers to simply decide they aren't happy and fuck off and not come back. I've got sympathy for the type of asshole customers you have to deal with but that's the nature of the job, if you're giving bad service in response it will kill your business. I've tried so many new restaurants that don't understand this and they invariably fail. When I'm going to spend money on non-essentials in the service industry, if the general vibe is bad, I don't come back. Doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong. The customer is god because they're the ones paying your salary.
