LOL....my lines are:

1: "Hi how are you? That's good." (whether they answered or not!)
2: "Just that amount?" (if it's eftpos)
3: "That's XX change. See you later!"

It's freakin histerical when someone does a seperate order and I forget and start the dialogue all over again. But at least they laughed and so did I.
!

I used to work at maccas and sometimes i had to alternate between drive thru and front counter...I have tolda customer at the front counter to "drive through, thanks" to which they looked at me strangely, and in the drive thru window I have asked a customer if 'that was to have here or takeaway'... what was funny about that was that the lady in the car actually thought really hard about the question

I also hate it when customers reach over into MY OWN PERSONAL SPACE to scan their flybuys card.
i fucking agree! i feel so violated when people do that! i also hate the dfact that people want their shit scanned and packed accordingly and still take their money/card out and wave it in front of my face when i am clearly doing something. they dont even put in on the counter or anything...when ppl do that i take extra long to pack their bags so it makes them even more uncomfy MUHAHAHAHAHA

...you obviously don't work on a register...


Today I saw someone use my supervisor's code. But I like her and I always have, I let her get away with a lot. But when someone watches over me entering my password then uses it for themselves so that they can "act like a supervisor" and can't be bothered calling a supervisor then that really makes me lose my trust for them.
I think it's all in a good cause for them to know it, but I don't think they realise that if I'm not even working and my code has been used for a refund, spot balance, or whatever then it's a tad obvious.
They are lucky I like them, because I could get them in a lot of trouble.
Today I changed my password and explained to her why.
