Customers are terrible. I feel bad for the employees who have to clean that mess.
especially because 1) it will be trashed again in 30 minutes, and 2) they get paid crap
My wife works at Target and usually the managers take turns with the gross cleanups. That can include vomit, piss and shit but sometimes creative stuff you wouldn’t think of like a customer put a package of meat back behind a shelf so no one knew it was there until it was rancid, started leaking and smelling like a dead body.
That's awful nice of the managers to take that on. I honestly think that anything that involves biohazard should not be handled by store employees at all.
30 minutes is generous. I’ve watched the aisle get trashed in 5 minutes when I took my son shoe shopping for school last year. We were the only ones who put things back.
Honestly? You can take those bad feelings and shove them, messes like this will be made regardless of how you feel so instead of feeling bad for us maybe you should suck it up or shop somewhere else. We don't want your pity, we just wanna work and go home.
Sorry for wishing people didn’t make your job more difficult? Jesus the internet is never predictable.
My job isn't difficult, it's annoying. It'll be annoying with or without your pity.
I think you're confusing pity with empathy.
In any case, it's pretty clear that the original comment bore no ill intent, so why are you reacting so aggressively?
Duh. Because they're annoyed.
Nah, I haven't seen a mess like this in any of the stores in Belgium.
Almost like normal customers will clean up after themselves instead of behaving like a spoiled toddler and claiming people like you are getting paid to clean it anyway.
