id have to say im a little disappointed with a few things in my life. my job being one of them. there has been so much grief and hurt feelings over the past year and nine months i've been there. too much stress. i couldn't believe i actually fought with a customer today. customers always right eh? i've never fought with a customer. i've always apologized a million times over and just cried in the lab until they left. like the time this dad told me off because i told him it was against our company policy to stick big props ontop of or around babies. and the time this lady hated her pictures so much that she tore them and threw them on the table along with her credit card. or the time this huge family did nothing but make fun of me and blame me for something that was against our company policy. or the time this lady threatened kwaku because i told them their pictures wouldnt be ready in an hour (it was 8:30pm and we closed at 9:00). but today this family had a baby who wouldn't stop crying and they let the sitting in front of them take their pictures instead so when i told them that we had to fit an appointment in before they did since they backed out of their appointment (another company policy) they became furious and i was shaking so badly i had to keep my hands in my pockets as not to show i was scared and i just started to defend myself. sounds ridiculous i know but if you work or have worked at a picture people store you'd probably know how mean customers can be. we don't even have a store manager right now. no leader. things are absolutely out of hand over there and today was the day i decided that i just can't take anymore. i don't care if they pay me "good money" at this point i'd rather have a job pay me a little less with less drama instead of having a job that pays a little more but along with that little more comes screaming children and screaming parents and pressure about sales plans and problems with photo machines that are too old..and crappy employees. im over this.
