Cash Register Controversy
OK tumblr, poll time. This topic has caused unexpected and SIGNIFICANT disagreement in the friend group, divided families, etc, and now we need to know who is right. Both sides are disturbed at the other's way of life. There can be no compromise.
After you vote, kindly put your country/state/etc, your industry (food service? retail? ticketing? banking? something else?), and your handedness (left or right) in the tags, because we need to know how and why this schism exists in order to sleep at night.

Customers when I’m sitting at the register playing on my phone
Customers when I’m trying to stock or clean
And mind you, I work the store by myself after lunch is finished. 🙃

“How did you know that?”
Because I am the god of this store. Because the amount of knowledge I have absorbed is staggering. I was here when you were still shitting your pants, and I will be here when your grandchildren mourn you. The product families I have seen rise to dominance only to be unceremoniously discontinued without warning. You think that little container can be found in the home organisation department? Fool that you are. It’s not in home organisation, or kitchens, or cooking. That special item has puzzled many a coworker, but only the wisest will be able to confidently tell you that it is found in the children’s department. Can these hooks be purchased separately? No, you wretch. They only come with the wall panel. You bought them separately once? You absolutely did not. You’re lying. You are a liar. How dare you look at ME and say these falses.

If I had a dollar for every time a shitty parent said their kid didn't know what they were doing bc they're autistic I'd have a fuckton of dollars. He's 15, your son is old enough to know not to pull a knife and threaten someone at a cash register

Accidentally started a minor revolution at work over the silly post it memes I've been making. My coworkers are prepared to start fights over such brilliant artistry as this:

open letters to various customers i've had
to all the visibly trans/gnc customers/anyone going for the "most fuckable person in the grocery store" look: hiiiiiiiii i love you i love you i love you i love you, yall make my job worth doing and my life worth living thank you for existing
to every customer i went to high school with: don't fucking look at me (unless youre gay now)
to the customers who put literally everything in produce bags: stop fucking doing that shit. youre just making my life harder. those granola bars are individually wrapped in plastic and in a fully sealed cardboard box. why do you do this to me.
to the guy who came in today asking where the "cooking water" was: wtf dude
love,
me, a cashier at a grocery store in my hometown
