This entry will be dedicated to all the annoying stupid ass people I deal with at work. Throughout my years of working with the general public, I’ve realized that the majority of the world’s population is really fucking stupid. All of which are grown adults, that should have well learned the way things are by now. But they haven’t, and I don’t know how they get by day to day, I really don’t. I’m surprised some even know how to pay bills. Feel free to skip over this entry, it’s really just for my own ranting purposes that I’m doing it anyway. So I apologize if things don’t make sense, or if they’re worded weird, I’m just trying to get these frustrations out. Anyway…let’s go through some of the simple things I’ve learned.

1. If you mess up, it’s my fault.

I don’t know if I need to have stories of these incidents, but maybe it’ll make them more interesting. So, this has happened several times before, but this one incident sticks out in my head. I know these’ll sound really messed up since I work at a pizza place, but believe me, we deal with a lot of shit. So, this woman orders this extra large pizza. Like most pizza places, we have different types of crusts in different sizes extra large square only, or medium round only, these types of things. Anyway, so we always ask what kind of crust you want on that pizza, except if it’s one of these exceptions, because there is no alternative. So...this woman orders an extra large pizza, doesn’t inquire about the type of crust that it comes with, and we don’t tell her. So, she comes and picks it up and !! isn’t happy, she ordered a pan pizza she says. We tell her, umm…the extra large only comes in hand tossed. Well I thought it was a pan! She said. Here’s the thing…she messed up, she didn’t ask, she made some crazy assumption, and because she didn’t know, we are responsible to make her a pan pizza, but we don’t have them in extra larges! So she demands a large and a medium pan with the toppings the extra large one had because she wants a pan pizza. What?? Like, I can see if you ordered a hand tossed but we made it wrong, that we’d remake it for you. But to order something, and then not be happy with it, and demand we remake it because you didn’t know it was going to be like that is just crazy. Would you go to a restaurant, order their alfredo, and then demand they remake it because you thought the sauce would taste like a white sauce? Of course not. But, because of the company we work for, we had to remake her pizzas. *sigh*

2. If you decide you don’t want something, it’s my job to pay for it.

So, this group of people orders 3 medium pizzas. We make them, and take them out to the table. One of them the waitress brings back and sets down, which I just box up because this happens all the time, people ask for one pizza to be boxed to take home. So, when it came time for them to pay, the woman gave her credit card to the waitress and she brought it to me to charge it, so far so good. I ring up the credit card and give it back to the wait to bring it back to the woman. So…the woman comes up to the counter and says that this is preposterous, she wasn’t paying for this third pizza. Umm…I thought she gave you the bill and you gave your credit card to pay for this bill. Why would you do that without looking at the bill? You stupid fucking idiot. Anyway…so I’m thinking…you ordered this pizza, I boxed it for you. Take it home, eat it later. It’s not my fault you decided after I charged your fucking credit card that you don’t want to pay for this pizza. Oh baby it didn’t stop there, she hounded my ass about this third pizza and said she didn’t want it and she wasn’t paying for it. I tried offering her a future credit towards another pizza, offered to give her the pizza for a lower price, offered to give her anything else of that value that she’d rather have instead of the pizza…refused. So, again, working for the company I do, I had to refund her the price of the pizza in cash, because it is impossible to go back into credit cards once it’s been cashed out. We can’t go back in time with this system. It causes problems like this, and it’s annoying to deal with them. People deciding after they’ve paid that they’ve changed their minds about what they want and then me telling them I can’t undo their order because it’s cashed out…uuuuugh.

3. This is a new one!! This is really an old one that I’ve known for quite some time, but was really reiterated tonight. Oh how to word this one…umm let’s say, “It’s my job to inform you of something we already posted to inform you of said thing”

I don’t really feel like typing this one up lol. I just told Anton about this one. But the general idea is people that get all frustrated when you tell them you’re closed and they have to leave. But we thought you were open until 12! Umm, we have our hours posted, I’m sorry you’re an illiterate fuck that can’t read. Or the ones that are surprised we’re nonsmoking when we have multiple signs posted everywhere that say we are nonsmoking. This group of 4 people that had already been there 45 minutes said I could have told them “sweeter” that they had to leave. ??? I could have gone up to them and said get the fuck out, but I asked them nicely that they had already been there 15 minutes past closing time, and that I had to ask them to leave because we were in fact closed. Whatever.

I’m done :D I feel better.
