      Crazy Customer Stories

      Customer Service Representative
      11mo

      One time at work, my coworker had just gotten their Subway delivered, left the sandwich sitting on the counter behind them while helping a customer. This lady walks in, looking around like she’s just browsing, then casually she slides over to the counter, grabs the sandwich, tucks it in her purse, and starts walking out the door. I was mid conversation with someone else and just froze, watched her stroll out with the footlong. I looked at my coworker like, “Uhh did you just get robbed??”

      Hi!! Thought I’d share a crazy experience. I’m 18 and 4’11, so customers love to comment. I try to ignore it, but some people are just rude. I was putting away the outside chairs—light wooden ones I always carry. One got caught on a loose thread on my jeans, and while I was freeing it, this guy goes: “Aww, are you not tall enough to carry the chairs?” I ignore him, and then he scoffs, gets up, and snatches them: “I’ll just do it then.” In what universe, bro? I’m fully capable.

      Am I too picky? I've been seeing this guy for some time. When we go to a restaurant he always passes his finger through the dish and licks it🤢 Yesterday I had the courage to tell him that he shouldn't do that, but today he has done it again... What would you do? I don't feel attracted to that, at all. He's very nice otherwise but my attraction fades when I see that and I know my family wouldn't ignore such gesture if he ever met them

      The Worklife Bowl

      Manager
      10mo

      I am currently looking for a new job after 15 years with my current company. A friend forwarded my resume to her friend at a consulting company. Two nights ago, around 8 pm, a recruiter for that company called, emailed and texted asking me to "hop on a quick call". I replied via text and email that I would be happy to schedule a call or video meeting to discuss my qualifications. I have not heard back. Should I have "hopped" on the call? Is this normal?

      I once found my shift manager crouched by the stockroom, trying to unjam the door with a butter knife he stole from the breakfast station. I showed up with real tools, and he froze like I’d caught him breaking into his own store. We laughed so loud guests wandered over. That ridiculous moment pulled me closer to the team and, somehow, became the story he quoted when recommending me for my next step up.

      Salary Negotiations

      Business Analyst
      5mo

      A recruiter reached out to me a few weeks ago about a role that's been open for a while. They quoted $75k, but I told her I need $90k. She liked my profile and managed to get the team to bump the range to $83k before we even started. I just finished the final round after 3 weeks of interviews. If I get the offer, is it greedy to push for $86k-$88k? I feel like if they found $8k, they can find another $3k.

      I once printed a couple resumes at work, got sidetracked, and totally forgot to grab them right away. By the time I ran back, someone was already at the printer HOLDING them, looked at me like, Oh, you’re job hunting? I wanted the ground to swallow me. Never hit “cancel print” so fast in my life 😂 Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s done this?
