I work at the vitamin shop and today a couple asked me where the calcium, magnesium, and zinc is. I took them to the part of the store where it is and they were very kind about it. After taking 2 bottles, they asked me if I could show them where the milk thistle extract was and I told them I didn't know what they were talking about (I've only been here for a month and 6 days).
They were super nice and said they'd just look around. However my manager was within earshot and asked them what they needed help with. They told him they were looking for milk thistle extract and he took them to it.
After they paid for their stuff, my manager started going psycho on me. Telling me I'm worthless and should just quit so he “doesn't have to go through the trouble of firing me.” The couple heard this as they were leaving and turned right back around. They yelled in the managers face about how helpful I was and how they'd love to come back since the customer service was so good. They told him he should be ashamed and said to me that they'd be looking for me anytime they come back.
This isn't meant to be any sort of brag. I'm making this post because I want the under appreciated retail workers to know that people love you despite your shitty boss. Don't let a corporate shill ruin your day.
Also, fuck you James.
