Show it anywayShe's not wrong, she's just being a bitch.
Carts are meant to convey goods from one point to other. OP could have used that time and effort elsewhere. That was unfair.
OP could have used a cart.
Yea, like #8 said, she was being a bitch. Just like you are #1!
The joys of working in retail!
Sounds like a solid job.
25kg of cement?! Dude, you rock
25 kg isn't that heavy, though...
For americans it is. most of our job postings say shit like "must be able to lift 25 pounds" (roughly 12kg)
25kg is heavy at all. a week or two at the gym and youd be lifting that over your head: one handed. if not more.
hahahahha try doing that all day im a labourer so i once moved 100 bags haha
All while working retail, too? That's impressive.
Doing it voluntarily is slightly different from being made to do it out of spite by a customer. I think the fml wasn't about carrying it per se but about the customers attitude to op
forced
Do you want a medal or something? Foh
a whole bag full will work and then add water
There's a difference between voluntary service and involuntary service.
Did you ride home with her to carry it out of the car, as well?
Technically if you work at Bunnings, Mitre 10 or Home Hardware etc. it is part of your job description but having said that she could have been more polite. I'm happy to help pleasant customers with heavy things even though I don't have to at my job but if they're rude I don't offer. A little bit of kindness goes a long way, hopefully your next customer is a little bit more cheery. Chin up OP :)
At least it's a job mate. I'll take a job even if it was cleaning toilets all day.
In fairness, she probably would have had issues moving it from cart to car. She could've been polite, though.
