Worst Day Ever

Maybe not, but it was a crap start of the week at least!
I almost didn't sleep last night, and then I had to go to work.

2 hours in, and there was nothing to do, so I mainly stood half sleeping at the checkout desk.
Then I see this old lady, which I know are schizophrenic, and she usually steels. But last time she came she was really rather pleasant, so I didn't bother to check up on her regularly.

Then she started yelling at me because I was stalking her (which I didn't). Then she asked me if I had helped her last time and I nodded my head. Only for her to start screaming at me again, that no it wasn't me because I was younger or something. And then she started saying that we were all new people, and that she didn't want anyone of us to help her.

All of the other customers thought this was rather unpleasant, and many left. But I can't just start yelling at my customer (besides the fact that she's sick) so I just stood there and took it while smiling apologetically at the other customers.

Then she started to refuse to pay for the stuff she wanted and everything went downhill so I just picked up the phone telling the security guards come and pick her up.

I was so relieved when she left that I couldn't have explained it properly if I could. Because you get so angry, and can't show it, and deep down inside know that it's not only her fault because she's sick.

Hope the rest of the week turns out okay, but right now, I seriously doubt it.

  1. Oh my god D: That must have been bloody unpleasant D: I don't know if I could've handled that at all. You managed to stay calm and did the right thing though. Hope this week will turn out good even if it had a crappy start.
