Pieman Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Now I'll set the scene for you. I work in a supermarket deli and I almost always get voted the best worker in the department (Yes, now you may all throw in jokes about how I handle people's meat for a living). So I'm walkin upstairs to leave work today, singing Duran Duran hungry like the wolf for some reason or another mind you, and the store manager pulls me aside. Manager: "Son, we got a complaint about you." Me: "What for sir?" Manag: "Well one of the customers said you carried a bad tone while serving him." Me: "Howso sir?" Manag: "Well apparently he said you were talking like a pirate, accent and all." Me: "Just trying to have some fun on the job. And that's a bad thing?" Manag: "Well son, some customers might get offended at that." Me: Who? The pirates that come in here regularly to get their meats?" Manag: "Well..." Me: "I get the point, glad we could chat." Manag: "Alright son, see you tomorrow, and keep the pirate talk at home." Me: "Aye aye cap'n. Yar!" I hate people who call me son as well...grumble. But how BS is that?

Dizz Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Arrrr! Matey, ye need to anchor yer piracy at yer home port. The customers won't know if ye threw their meats in yer bilgewater. Yar! Seriously though, it isn't professional. That is why the manager talked to you. If you don't like to be called 'son' it helps to act older than you are.

Pieman Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Act professional? I work for $7.30 an hour at a freakin deli lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 You get paid 7.30 an hour to serve customers their food in a friendly, respectful manner. It's the job you are choosing to work...you have to do what's supposed to be done. I don't go to Subway to hear somebody talking all dumb and piratish and trying to be funny when I want to get my food and get the hell out of there. and by the way........ARGH! AHHAHA thats funny....do you frequent n00bfest.com by chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieman Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Naw, but being at work for that long paid that much isn't enough to not at least try to have a little fun. And when I worked at subway I did much worse, keep that in mind. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zrothum Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Penis Game While at work, someone whispers the word "penis" or "vagina" softly. Someone else repeats the world, just a little louder. Going round and round and round until someone punks out and won't say it any louder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
