F...People Who Work in a Crappy Job and Take it out on Me

Lady Brave · 06-18-2007, 10:13 PM

When you work in government or law enforcement, people just expect you to be an asshole. I usually give people more information than they actually need when they come to the jail. When I do that, they look at me like I'm an alien. I can't count the number of times people have said, "you're the first person to actually take the time to explain to me what's going on."

Issuing gun permits is another story. I get so many idiots applying for permits and most of them can't follow simple instructions. What is it about "you can't be a convicted felon or you can't have a domestic violence conviction" that people don't understand? Only to have them say, "durrrr... but that was ten years ago. I thought it come off my record." No it doesn't, you redneck dumbass. It never comes off. You just thought I wouldn't find your conviction and you wasted my time running your record. I seriously want to reach through the glass and smack them upside the head.

I do real estate research at the courthouses in my area and every courthouse has a big sign on the way in that says what you can't bring in like mace, knives, cameras, etc. Why the F can't people understand that you can't bring your CAMERAphone into the courthouse and then have the balls to argue with the deputies about it and hold everyone else up who can read the Fing sign. I'm done.

I know what you mean. We have actually had people come in the jail with video cameras and proceeded to walk around and record the layout of the visitation area. What?!!! One chick got really pissed off when we explained to her that you weren't allowed to videotape a SECURED AREA without permission. She said we were approaching her in a "threatening manner", but she wouldn't explain to us why she was videotaping. We found out later she was the sister of a fugitive we were holding who was classified as an escape risk. A few weeks later another lady came in and claimed she was shooting a documentary.

Yeah, a lot of people in those positions are in a transition period of their life. Few people will make a career out of working at McDonalds. I've seen people be complete and utter assholes to people. I saw someone toss a milkshake on a guy who didn't even make or give him his milkshake. He was just pissed that he had the wrong flavor and threw it at the guy.

Anything with customer service is hard. Seeing as how I'm sarcastic and don't deal with assholes or bumbling idiots well I typically stay out of that field. However, everyone has bad days. And TMC, I believe I've heard you say "It's Friday, why does everyone keep bothering me god damnit" when someone just wants you to do your damn job with a smile =p

When I used to work at McDonalds there was this guy that was just as fat as me treated this customer like crap. Well he came back on my shift and threw tomatos and ketchup on me. I was like "What the fuck man!!!!!!!!!" Then he realizes it was not me so he tried to apologize and I am like "fuck off" So I quit that crap.

And punched the guy who worked with me.

I used to work in the desert, it was hot as hell. All I was trying to do was maintain peace and all of these bastards kept shooting at me, and were trying to blow me up with IED's. I was just doing my damn job! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

GMScud · 06-19-2007, 01:02 AM

The moral of the story is don't eat or work at McDonald's.

saden1 · 06-19-2007, 02:37 AM

I worked at the Wendy's in Burke (VA) as a teen for couple of months...after working there I never ate there again. I would recommend that you not eat there.

I always forget that you used to be out here on the East Coast. I always think of you as Bill Gates' neighbor out in Puget Sound

That's a sinking ship. I wouldn't touch it with free money.
