when the colour of the shirt is the same as the "uniform" i can let it go.. (similar thing at Shoppers for me) but I've had this very rude lady literally SHOUT "HEY" at me multiple times, when I was wearing a white t-shirt & old jeans @ "The Bay". She said she thought I was security ?!?@!@#? since when does security walk around in a t-shirt & jeans? no jacket, no walkie-talkie, but I'm wearing sunglasses so I must be security. Then she got really pissed that I had no intention of helping her :roll:

Office humor is the worst. Every time it rains, someone has to say the stupid line, "Yeah, we need this rain!" NO WE DON'T! Or when you're in a meeting, and someone turns down the lights to see the projector, someone ALWAYS says, "I'm going to fall asleep!" and makes snoring noises or some variation thereof.
And the WORST is telecons. Hearing someone say, "Can you hear me now? Good!" makes me want to rip out their vocal cords so that there will never be any doubt that no one can hear them, and they won't have to ask that f&cking question.

At my help center job that I had up till last summer, I'd always get pharmacists calling in when the pharmacy software went haywire. 90% of them would claim to be "dead in the water."
They even laughed at my stupid comments .. "Hmm, we must have intentionally left you on hold too long cause we didn't feel like answering the phone, I apologize that this has resulted in your death. Since you are already dead, you are beyond help, have a nice day!" Of course they would ALWAYS interrupt before I finnished the word day 🙂

i used to work at a movie theater, and we had to check all bills larger than $20 bucks.
at least 5 times per shift, someone would say "I just made that bill"
:roll:

When I worked at Target I got farkin' sick of people thinking they were clever by pronouncing it "Tar-zhay" (like ballet).
And on a side note, this woman who works at the company cafeteria always says your total as 100x what it should be. Like a $4.75 lunch would be four hundred and seventy-five dollars. Every farkin' time. Geez.

Everytime I see the beer guys unloading trucks to stock the coolers, I tell them where my trucks is at.
.. the guy who 'unloads' the portapotties - Now that guy gets away with a lot of $hit.

When Sideways came out there were articles where they interviewed employees of those little winery joints when thousands of stupid impressionable people descended on the area and started repeating lines from the movie thinking that they were so smart . . .
most of the employees said they were inches from going postal.

My last name is Smith.
"XXXXXX Smith, is that your real name?"
"Good thing there aren't many Smiths around!!"
"Is your first name John?"
"You're not Agent Smith from the Matrix, are you?"
