I work in a grocery store. I usually work the cash register or self-checkouts. These are positions in which I (or a machine) need to be in constant contact with the customer. This is not possible when they decide to check out in the middle of their fucking phone conversation!
That'll be..... that'll..... ma'am, that'll be..... did you just flip me off?! Oh FUCK YOU THEN!
That's right. They do not want to complete the transaction, and they want to have an excuse to be pissed off at you. Furthermore, they want an excuse to make sure every person behind them in line gets no opportunity to be checked out as well. What a bunch of self-centered, ego-flaunting fuckers!
And that's just through the normal checkout lanes. Shit hits the fan and spreads on everyone in the store (and onto customers in some of the adjacent stores) when they ignore the self-checkouts' instructions due to their cell shitting. The machines are simply "broken", and it's all your fault. As I've said before, firearms should be standard issue "customer service" equipment.
Basically, my complaint is that people need to hang up their phones when in a position that their attention is required elsewhere. However, if they insist on continuing, I could always find out their address (especially if they write a check, heheheh) and send a wrecking ball operator to their location. I'll make sure he is equipped with a cell phone of his own, and demand that he uses it the entire duration of wrecking ball operation.
Hey! Get off your damn cell phone and pay attention to me!
Hey!
