Some higher up says my coworker and I were “goofing off” because I wore two name tags

My manager’s boss’s boss came in to our store randomly before 10pm to spy on us. I could kinda tell he was someone because when his account rang up, it had an employee discount, he was all dressed up despite it being so late, and he had this soul less, but stand-offish expression. Kinda like he thought of himself better then everyone else. He seemed pretty chill because he was striking a conversation and was poking fun of my two name tags which was the response I got from customers all shift. Then he left and I thought that was it. Come the next day my manager pulls my coworker and I aside and basically tells us that this guy was her boss’s boss and was basically having a temper tantrum all day through text to her boss.

Come the next day my manager pulls my coworker and I aside and basically tells us that this guy was her boss’s boss and was basically having a temper tantrum all day through text to her boss. Complaining about so much little stuff. Said we were goofing off and whatever. Said he was only in the area because he was “looking at houses” at 9pm, in the dark, on a Wednesday. Every complaint he mentioned seemed like petty things because our store was pretty tidy despite only having the minimum amount of workers with the minimum allotted hours. This coworker and I are also pretty competent at our jobs. We always get our stuff done and we were the ones who basically kept the pharmacy open when every tech wanted to call off during the holiday season. We literally pulled 60 hour weeks so the pharmacist wouldn’t be all by herself. No thanks from anyone besides coworkers and the pharmacist of course.

I just wanted to rant 😛 None of it matters. We didn’t get in trouble or anything. Not that we would because we literally have a coworker who no calls no shows every other week. And I’m just chilling making my 16/hr doing little tasks. But damn was that guy a loser.
