Crazy Customer Stories

3 months ago

works at 

Just Eat Takeaway

Once in a Tesco supermarket a customer asked me where an item of groceries was in a very rude way. I didn't know an even if I did wouldnt have told her anyways so she got angry at me so I told the customer where to go. Literally she got an "eff off an leave me alone". She got management involved and when the manager came over he verified I did not even work for him or for Tesco an that she was just being rude to another customer getting his lunch..,. ME!

Project Coordinator

What is going on with this new practice. You apply for a job get confirmation for it etc. And then you get e message directly from the company that you just applied for and they are like if you would like to apply for this position follow this link?! This keeps happening how does it make any kind of sense?

Leasing Manager

I recently received a Job offer. I accepted it verbally in order for them to send me the official offer letter.It does match everything they described to me (based on salary, sign on bonus, & relocation assistance.) However the question I have is should i attempt to negotiate for a higher base salary? When speaking to my parents about it they told me that the time for negotiation is over as I accepted the offer as it stands and they sent it to me.
