I'm quite sure every penny of my wages are earned. Maybe that's a little old fashioned, but its how I trained my kids too. I'm so tired of "I don't get paid to do that" well, you don't get paid to complain about your job either. Don't like it? Find a new one!
I agree! I work for minimum wage and was taught that if youare having problems with work or otherwise you do NOT bring that to the sales floor!!! I help people all the time at work. They look at me and say oh I can do that but I just lookat them and say ' well I get paid the BIG bucks to do it for you!' They always laugh but at least I know they are happy! If I thought I did something to upset a customer I would be very upset with myself. Like I said I was taught you are there to work and you are there to do your best! Do it! No questions asked! Sorry - I don't mean to ramble but I have worked retail to a long time and have always loved dealing with people! My other way of dealing with bad things at work - you can really mess with peoples minds if they are mean and grumpy - be super sweet and nice! They never know what to say!!! :lol:
Sorry Just my two cents!
