today at work this lady came in with her daughter. she looked around, got a total of 3 samples before buying a cone. she leaves the store and my boss comes over to me and tells me that "that lady is a bitch. I don't like that kind of person." I got aggravated and started arguing with him about how a customer asking for 3 samples was wrong. I told him it was completely out of hand to call her a bitch just cause of that and he played it off by saying he was joking. fuck you, man. he started claiming that one sample was enough, two was getting there, and 3 was too many. please tell me what the purpose of sampling is. he realized we were arguing in front of the customers so he called me to the backroom and we bitched it out some more. he tried telling me that I didn't have enough experience [with giving out samples? are you fucking kidding?] and I told him that I knew the point when a person goes overboard. but then he told me that I should be following his policies for sampling of which I followed since the first 5 times he has told me. he kept bringing up that I didn't have enough experience with "[those] kind of people" and tried to blame my being on vacation for almost a month. so I told him that was irrelevant and it isn't right of him to judge people that way and that I didn't like/agree with his so-called policies. so I tried to bring up the fact that him and his wife have made a lot of violations, employee and pay-wise. for example, we're supposed to be paid during training and minors aren't allowed to work alone after 8? 9? without adult supervision. I didn't get very far with that argument cause he pulled it back to taste testing. shit, I asked him if he came to his own store, wouldn't he want to sample ice creams before making a decision? he said something about how other customers would have to wait for a person taking their sweet time to sample one, two, three ice creams. but I pointed out that in this case, there were no other customers waiting after the woman I was serving.
I know he was trying to resolve the whole thing, but I honestly couldn't take him and his wife anymore. I'd also told the owner lady when I first started the shift that I needed to quit soon. so, in the heat of the moment I told him I was quitting right then and there. I took off my apron and work shirt, reached for my card to punch out, but decided otherwise since I'd already gotten my paycheck for the days before I left on vacation. which only leaves yesterday's 3 hours + today's <1 hour, fuck if I care.
I might've overreacted which might fuck me over in future jobs and other employers, but I seriously would rather fight for what I believe is right. i'll report them or some shit if they're even mad enough to somehow screw me over.
what-the-fuck-ever. time to look for a new job.
