Wining And Whining
(This is my third day at this job and I am still in training, out stocking the floor and familiarizing myself with the layout. Adjacent to the bakery is the wine section.)
Woman: *approaches me* “Hello, I’d like some help with choosing a wine?”
Me: “Wine?” *notices* “Oh, that. Well, unfortunately, I don’t know anything about wine.”
Woman: “What? You do work here, right?”
Me: “Well, yes, but I’ve just started and wine isn’t my section.”
Woman: “How can you not know your own store?!”
Me: “Miss, this is my third day. I haven’t even shopped here before!”
Woman: “I don’t care HOW new you are; you should learn things!” *storms off*
(I was three syllables from telling her that I have a friend who works here as well and went to culinary school, took classes in wine, and could help her out, but she left too quickly.)
