As a manager I’m not supposed to be on the checkstand, but I do get called up as a last resort when the line is too full; today though, I was so out of it that instead of asking the woman who’s stuff I was scanning “and are you a rewards member with us?” I said “Are you a rewards member with me?” and at that moment, death could not come swiftly enough

After a couple of weeks of being at my job, they finally managed to get me my official managers badge and suddenly, magically customers comply with what I say instead of going through the whole “I want to speak to your manager” “Mam, I AM the manager” “No you’re not.” “Mam, fuck off” and it’s nice
