Well good grief its been a LONG while since I have blogged. WELL, there really isn't much to say even now. I have a job now. :( Not something I would choose but you gotta get the bills paid somehow. I am a cashier at Meijer. It is not a bad job. It is nice being able to talk to people. I'm a talker just like my grandma. There are some crazy people out there that make you think...."can you really be that stupid".....but you just smile and get them out of your line as soon as you can and hope the next person has some smarts. I do have some "hints and tricks" for shopping though.
1. If you are in line and ready to check out and you find that you do not want a few items don't just stick them anywhere you'd like on any shelf or crevice you find. Please give the item to the cashier and he/she will be happy to put it in their "return" bucket and get it back to where it belongs. This keeps shelves and isles clean and neat.
2. READ, READ, READ!!!! If you are buying something that you see has a sign or some type of mark down PLEASE read the sign or markdown sticker or ad or whatever. Many sales have exclusions and/or size preferences for the sale. If you do not read and end up grabbing the wrong item then the cashier has to find out why the item is not ringing up correctly. Which could take quite a while. Just please READ!
3. There are allot of places that have the Bag Carousels nowadays. When the cashier is putting items in the bags and spins the Carousel to get to an empty bag this is not a "que" to you, to turn the carousel so you can get the full bag of your items that you cannot reach. The cashier will turn the carousel so you can retrieve your bags when he/she is done with your order. Patience is the word for this "hint/trick".
4. Please do not blame the cashier for something ringing up wrong. The cashier had nothing to do with it. All the cashier does is ring up the item and bag the item. If you want to blame anyone just ask the cashier to call the manager and you can blame them. Which it really isn't their fault either but they will be able to help you more than the cashier.
5. Cashiers cannot return items at their registers. Items that need to be returned need to go to the service desk. End of story.
6. Cashiers are not meant to put away your carts/baskets. There are door greeters at both entrances and they are the ones who have that lovely job of putting your carts and baskets where they belong. Its not like its out of the way when you are leaving.
Well now that I have that out of my system I am going to bed. Goodnight my friends.
