Unfiltered Story #144713
I’m monitoring the self check-out registers when an elderly lady comes up to me.
– Do you work here? (Clearly my work shirt, nametag and hat with the company logo were not enough of a sign.)
– Yes ma’am.
*She shows me a bag of garlic priced at 56 cents.*
– This garlic was marked as $2.99 per pound, not $3.99! What are you going to do about it?!
*Knowing full well that garlic has always been $3.99, I point at the customer service desk not 10 feet away from where we were.*
– Unfortunately, I’m not authorized to make price changes, but the people over at customer service will be able to direct your complaint to the right people and get your situation corrected.
– I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO WALK ALL THE WAY OVER THERE! YOU GUYS SHOULD JUST LABEL YOUR PRODUCTS RIGHT!
After that, she stormed off in a huff. I was half tempted to offer to buy the garlic myself if paying an extra 10 cents or so was such a loss for her.
