I was working on cash tonight and an item didn't scan at the sale price - no big deal, it happens all the time. I was about to change it (it was only a dollar anyway) when the lady started screaming at me, saying I overcharged her and tried to scam her. I apologized and said that sometimes sale prices aren't put in the system on time and assured her I adjusted it. She didn't even listen - just continued screaming at me saying I intentionally and purposely overcharged her. Thankfully, a guy I work with was on his way to relieve me for my break. He saw what was going on and told me to go. The lady then proceeds to yell at him and question why I called him over to deal with her, to which he said I was going for break. She didn't like that answer and started swearing at the both of us. I seriously couldn't believe it… do people seriously have no sense of how to act in public anymore? And why do people have this logic that cashiers just pull prices out of thin air? All I do is scan your stuff and bag it. I don't make up the prices, and I have absolutely nothing to gain by charging you an extra dollar. I am not the one who overcharged you. It was simply an error in the system that I fixed. NOT MY FAULT.
Sorry for ranting, but incidents like that really make me question why I still work here. I just don't understand how people think it's okay to treat people and talk to people like that and make complete asses out of themselves.
