Today I ran to Walgreens to pick some stuff up, and as I was walking to the checkout, I passed one of my assistant managers. She had a case of iced tea in her arms, helping an elderly woman take it to her car. As I passed, I said, "When you're done with her, wanna help me?" as I lifted a gallon of distilled water and a candy bar, laughing. I then headed over to pick up a couple cases of bottled water.

I got checked out, found out the water was on sale (two for $5) and was getting two more cases, when the manager comes in from outside, and say, "That was very rude, what you said."

I was confused, I didn't know what she was talking about. "What?"

"What you said to me, when I was helping that woman. That was very rude."

"Okayyy...?"

"I was helping a customer, and she could have overheard you. I know it was just a joke, but..."

I turned around, grabbing the cases of water, muttering and rolling my eyes. I stayed there until she disappeared.


What the fuck? This manager is a company man if ever there's been one. She's got "assistant manager for life" written all over her self. What's more, she reprimanded a customer, I was wearing a hoodie, baseball cap, jeans, certainly not an employee of the store. What if a customer wrote her up for that?

Was I out of line making a little joke? Hardly.

IDK... if I were working and one of my junior personnel made a remark like that to me I'd take it as a kind of smart-assed comment as well.

Q: Would you rather she said something to you about it on the spot, and been done with it? Or would you rather she waited until you came back to work and made the reprimand "official"?

I can kinda see how she may have taken it as being inappropriate/disrespectful.

You should have asked her how her day at the beach was.

Brilliant!

her:"That was very rude."

me:"How was your day at the beach?"

her:"Uh.... what?"

me:"Have a nice day."

her:"Okay..." *wonders off*

....What?

Ohhh, I see what you did there.

"Because you seem to have gotten a lot of sand in your vagina."

:bigthumb:

Does it make things better if her name is Sandy?

It's not.

Only if she's married to this guy.

BTW, "See you next tuesday" is a incognito way of calling her a cunt. My dad had a friend who was a crazy old bastard that always used to say crazy shit like that to people.
