Am I cooked?
I’m working lumber cashier today and got a really rude customer who was trying to purchase an order with an in-store credit. I scan her ID and tell her that the credit isn’t under her ID so therefore she can’t use it. She asks a few questions like “we’re pros here, is there anyway we could bypass it because idk if it’s under my name or my mom’s name?” And “Is there a way I can check?” So I ask my head cashier. The head says “no” to both (obviously) and there’s no way to override it, so she starts saying stuff like “This is why we should’ve went to Home Depot. I’m a Pro at both stores and I don’t have any issues there.”
As she leaves, I tell her “have fun at Home Depot”. She turns and immediately goes “Excuse me?”. I just shrug and she says “If you love your job you’d love Home Depot too.” The customers after wonder what happened and agreed that my response was appropriate. Am I cooked?
