The customers are what makes the store bad

[winterinchicago]

I am going to share share with you the misadventures I and my co-workers have been forced to experience at the expense of our health and dignity (what's left of it anyways).

Now, I must tell you that I used to be a very pleasant person. I even worked at Walmart once. As hard as it is to believe, the customers there are smarter.. I honestly never knew how ignorant and extremely moronic people could truly be. Until now.

We open at 10 a.m. There is usually someone calling us before we open, so we ignore the phone. But it continues ringing. Maybe if you let it ring 600 times, we will pick up the fucking phone and help your dumbass. No. If we dont answer the phone, we're not fucking open. Don't call us to ask when we open. Read the fucking door when you come in next time.

And I am tired of people walking in and handing me their movies. Or when they set them on the counter (the counter where we, the employees, put the movies that are already returned and ready to go on the shelf). There are THREE (3) perfectly fucking good drop boxes for your fat ass to walk up to and put them in. We are too busy dealing with the fuck-asses at the register who are too stupid to follow policy.

Don't fucking come to my register and go "Johnson, John" (fictional name used for customer safety, but really, who gives a fuck?)...I dont fucking know youre John Johnson. How about get your fucking membership card out and show me some identification. And dont bitch about it because that policy is the only thing keeping a bunch of bottomfeeders from renting on your account.

Some customers can't find their driver's license. So I ask them "did you drive here?" That either puts them into a state of confusion, or they realize I called them out on a lie and they return to their car to retrieve it.

Sometimes they really don't have their license so they offer their social security number. Their social is just about as useful as a shit flavored lolli pop. Id like to tell them that, but I would rather not get my taint handed to me by some disgruntled dickhead twice my size.

The customers have another thing they do when they come to the register. "My phone number is..." When the FUCK have we ever brought up your rental account with your fucking phone number?

We haven't. Then there are the people who bitch because they want to rent on thier dad's/mom's/sister's/spouse's account and their not on it. Sorry cocksucker, get your own account. WHAT? Youre not 18? Then FUCK OFF!

You dont neccesarily need your account card. You have keychain cards too. But when you show me the keychain, show me the side that has your barcode on it. WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH MY STORE LOGO????!??? Ever think of that prick?? Get a fucking clue.

What kind of dumb mother fucker does not know the difference between a 20oz of cola and a 2liter of cola? We are running this deal where if you rent 3 movies you get a free 2liter. And half of the stupid pricks try to grab a 20oz. Sometimes when I tell them they get a free soda they're like "Okay." And they don't fucking grab it. I have to tell them to go get the soda. Sometimes they're like "I'll grab it on the way out." FUCK YOU! Get the fucking soda and let me ring it up.

We have display boxes for the movies so the employees and customers know where the rental copy should be placed on the shelf. These display boxes clearly state that they are only display boxes. For one, they are in a different type of box than the rentals. Second, they weigh a lot less. However, the stupid cunts don't know how to read for shit so they bring up the display box and act like it's the end of the world when I tell them they brought the display box.

You would assume, where there is an employee, there is an open register. But that can't be true because they always walk up to the empty register.

We have had a lot of people rent with us who own dogs. They come in and give us a fucked up DVD. They say their dog got to the DVD. Well if your dog got to the DVD, that can't be the first time they ate the shit out of something. Did you ever try putting the DVD on top of the TV where the dog cannot get to it? Had one customer who came in with one that looked like 2 dogs fought over it. He had the nerve to say "I rented it like that."

When I check the outside drop box, there are usually several movies to bring in and look at to make sure our idiotic customers didnt fuck them up. A lot of the time we will find an empty DVD box because the fucker who rented it was too much of a cunt to make sure they put the movie in the box before they returned it.

When we call them, theyre usually like "Well I thought my son put it in the box." Who gives a fuck what you thought. Did you ever think that it would only take one fucking second for you to take your greasy paws to the side of the case to open it and look in the damn box?

The excuses usually involve them leaving it in the DVD player. Some of them have one of those 5 disc changers. Who the fuck really needs a 5 disc changer? Theyre fucking movies. You can get off your fat ass and take the fucking disc out of the DVD player and put it back in it's box. Then if you have the desire to be so fucking lazy that you are going to watch a second film instead of,

God forbid, doing something productive, then you can take your lazy ass to the movie you want and put it in the DVD player. Dont forget to put that one away too bitch!

Then there are the customers that dont know shit about taking care of a DVD disc. We get in discs that are absolutely covered in finger prints. It looks like they rubbed their hands in fry or bacon grease and man-handled the disc. And they are confused when the disc doesnt work.

Here is a list of some of the conditions in which movies have been returned to us:
1. Used as coaster
2. Used as frisbee
3. Probably to cut their coke
4. I found one with dried Coca Cola on it.
5. Found one with a bootleg film in it.
6. Found one with a porn DVD in it.
7. Found one with tiny bits of weed in it.
8. Found one broken in half

Here is the condition some movies come back in:

When we rent out video games, they have instruction booklets. We make sure we check to see if a game has an instruction book when we rent it to peoples' account. We mark it on the account.

One time I had a guy tell me his son said there was no book. That's fucking bullshit. How fucking hard is it to keep up with a book. Just put it back in the damn box when youre not using it right that second. I never use the books anyways. Theyre made for fucking morons so they can lose them.

I have to go in tonight to work inventory. Thank God. Inventory is after we close, when there are no dumb fucks to deal with.

I was doing what we call "scanning." That is where you go around the store making the movies look pretty on the shelves. I saw a little kid pushing all the movies he could find, flush against the shelf. I had this strong desire to staple his fingers to eachother. Or to his ass. Lets see if he fucks with my movies again.

[the boy wonder uk]

Of course we should make it mandatory for all our customers to know BB policy before they call or walk into our stores.

What do you suggest an amendment to the bill of rights?
Pre-school classes in BB procedure around the drop box?

[winterinchicago]

How about an IQ test. And you have to score above a 4 to get a membership. This stuff is common sense.

Ha ha that would have eliminated two thirds of my customers. ;)

Lots of angery here, maybe you should consider another line of work besides retail. Because this is what you will have to deal with the rest of your retail life.I've been at it a long time and yes it gets to you, hoped your vent helped you.

Why don't you work at my store?

We would get along beautifully...:p

[Aphrodite]

Who the fuck gave you permission to post ??

Back in the cage Bitch.

[sar94pga]

Why don't you work at my store?

We would get along beautifully...:p

i hate that fucking red font. makes me wonder if she typed that in sick bastards blood :eek:

[Aphrodite]

Nah, shes not that interesting. ;)

[zooworker]

Why don't you work at my store?

We would get along beautifully...:p
I'm sure you would, right along with you calling the cops. Still doing that WM? Are have they had enough of you?

[igniteice]

1. Phone ringing before open.
2. Customers handing you movies to return.
3. Customers thinking they don't need ID to rent.
4. Customers confusing Blockbuster with Hollywood and giving phone number.
5. Children finding out their parents haven't listed them on their account.
6. Customers not being able to balance their keys in midair.
7. Customers being confused about coupons.
8. Customers bringing up display boxes instead of rental cases.
9. Customers not knowing where you are going to check them out.
10. Customers not taking care of rentals.
11. Customers returning movies in a hurry and forgetting disc.
12. Customers forgetting instruction manual.

I can tell you haven't worked at Blockbuster long, because all your complaints are ridiculously petty and are EVERYDAY occurences that you should definitely be used to by now. I mean, there is literally nothing on that list their that is even remotely annoying to me now. Sure, I joke about it to new employees when I ask them how things are going, but uh... GET A REAL FUCKING PROBLEM!

Go to 'Customer Type Tribute Thread' to read REAL COMPLAINTS about customers and other crap. Seriously, you need to learn how to rant. That was pathetic.

[brantheman]

Hmmm. When I get really upset with someone, I usually let them know as vaguely as possible. Example: Customer brings up two movies, and two PAGES with tiny little online coupons in the center of the pages. How hard is it to cut them out? Well anyway, I look at them, sigh, and walk all the way over to the managers desk and get scissors (sure, I have some in my drawer, but I like to make the customer feel as shitty as possible), then I slowly cut them out. Then continue with the transaction :)

See, if they really piss you off, just make a comment about it on their account. But don't be TOO blunt. That may blow up in your face later if they one day request a complete record of their history. Example: Instead of saying, "Fucking shitdickholehead doesn't know how to cut out coupons! I hate them and hope she miscarries every child she ever conceives!", say, "Customer does not understand concept of coupon-clipping. She should get it now."

Hahah, I do that too Brandon :D

Once we were running a promotion in a national newspaper and it had a voucher inside, every day for a week, for a free dvd. A lot of people cut/ripped them out just fine, but SOME people just gave us the whole page so I'd make them stand there and wait while I 'searched' for some scissors and slowly cut it out perfectly, before I scanned it and gave them their DVD.

One woman even gave me a copy of the entire paper and expected me to find the page and cut it out for her :eek: Be sure she had to wait there for a long time for THAT to happen ;)

Those of you who are employees at BBV need to go crawl back in your momma's womb because your brain hasn't finished developing yet.

Every BBV employee I have ever talked to are complete morons. Just look how they visit a site that hates them and they try to defend themselves by saying the customers are the problem. Just shows how moronic they really are. Guess what guys, you wouldn't have your little $6.00 an hour job if there were no customers. Maybe you should go create a site called www.ihateblockbustervideocustomers.com then we will see how BBV employees really think of us customers. You can create a free website over at officelive.microsoft.com

"A site that hates them"? Huh? Take a look around. This site is kept alive by employees of BB. Douche. And 6 dollars an hour, eh? I'm guessing you're taking that little guess from previous experience at a different company, because I have yet to meet one BB employee who makes six bucks an hour.

But meh, what do I know. What's YOUR job? Do you make 15 bucks an hour and have a hot supermodel girlfriend? Something tells me that's what your defense will be later :)

Clearly it's my problem that you assumed you'd come on this site and band together with other fellow employees and immediately start whining about customers. "LOL THAT GUY DIDN'T DROP HIS MOVIE IN THE DROP BOX HE JUST HANDED IT TO ME, ROFL SHOULD I PUT IT BACK IN THERE AND CHECK IT IN LATER? HAHA!"

Yeah, real smart idea to get pissed off at someone who has clearly learned that getting angry at customers in any retail job is obviously going to happen, but when you're harboring hatred for minute things like customers calling up the store before it opens... man, you've got a long road ahead of you.

I mean, the amount of cursing you actually put into your original post is more than obsessive. I can't even imagine what you must be like checking out a customer.

C: Let me find my card here... I think it's somewhere...
You: Can you please fucking HURRY UP?

C: Can you check this movie in for me please?
You: No but you can fucking return it in the DROP BOX maybe!

Phone rings...
C: Hi, I'm looking for a certain movie --
You: We open in 15 fucking minutes - CALL BACK LATER ASSHOLE!

Well, maybe you don't say any of that, but your post clearly proves you are thinking it. I have news for you: negative energy shows. It is reflected towards other employees and other customers all the same.

Maybe you should go work in a factory instead. Or maybe just kill yourself.

[AmazonBitch]

Ignite ice is probably one of the customers who are too fucking stupid to read the words "Display Box Only" How about one of the customers that asks us when we started locking the DVD boxes, when we have been doing it since blockbuster was started. Maybe one of the dumb assholes who calls, and after we say "Blockbuster Hampton Street, how may I help you", they ask "Is this blockbuster" because youre a dumb fucking cunt.

1. Who are you talking to? Apparently you aren't talking to me, so you must be talking to someone. Now that also means you are assuming anyone wants to actually listen to you.

2. I'm a Store Manager, not a customer.

You've officially lost all star-troll-quality. No one wants to make you look stupid when you're doing a good enough job as it is. Get out.

[OzMan]

how many times will i be tricked by clicking that! DAMN IT! :mad:

Think of it as an intelligence test.

Then again, when I did a "fake" link for Roni the Racist, I was shocked to find that the link actually worked.... so, you never really know.

I am shocked, tho, to find not one, but two complete and total moran n00bs in the same thread. First, to the OP, I can't even bother making my "Customer Say The DARNDEST Things - Greatest Hits" comments, as your complaints are so petty and pathetic.

I missed a debate here on how much bitching about your job should be tolerated. There are some valid complaints, and even some of what you have said could qualify as valid, but if you have to make a post like that with such anger, then you really do need to find another line of work. I mean, if you have that many complaints, and can't insert one IOTA of humour into your post....... get another job,...... if you can.

As for Thearsebiter, or whatever the fuck you're going by..... you are the person I have the least amount of respect for. BBI is not the ONLY place to rent movies. If you hate it so much, why do you continue to go there?? Is it perhaps because every OTHER store in town has banned you from coming in??

And for the record, as much as it pains my to admit this (the "special friend" I was visiting used to work for BBI..... and has the Movie Pass) I actually shopped in a BBI a few times over the last fortnight..... even once by myself (good thing they weren't following rules and asking for my ID;) )..... and it was a rather more pleasant experience than I ever remember it being in the past.... so I do have to grudgingly give BBI some credit....... and I can't believe that I actually wrote those words :eek:

:D

glad youre not my dick manager

I just noticed this reply and started laughing.

I'm not sure what to make of it. It's clearly one of the worst constructed sentences I've ever read. I don't know what the intentions were.

Is Winter trying to tell me that his current manager is a dick and that he's glad I'm not his manager (who is a dick) ? If so, I must not be a dick, because apparently, his current manager already is. Though, that wouldn't explain why he wouldn't want me to be his manager.

Or maybe he forgot the comment, and was trying to tell me that he's glad I'm not his dick... I don't know, it's very... odd, I don't think I should be talking about it anymore.

Or maybe he's so inept, he had to hire a consultant to manage his penis, and he is glad that he didn't hire you for that job.

That is the MOST logical read of his poorly-constructed sentence.

[rk237]

Ahhh that ambiguity escaped me the first time, and I am fully enjoying its humor now. Thanks Ignite and Oz. :D

May that quote enter the annals of IHBB history. ;)

Or He forgot to punctuate, meaning he was saying, Glad you're not my dick, manager. So he was saying he is glad you are not his dick, and calling you his manager. Over compensation is what makes most people a lot happier with their small little lives. "I mean its nice and all but look at the location".

Realistically he wishes you were his manager and now his dick.

Here is several ways how it could have been more logical...

Glad you are not my manager, dick.
You are a dick, I am glad you are not my manager.
My manager is a dick, so are you.
Would you like to manage my dick?
My dick is quite manageable.

Think this thread is irrelevant now as one could say, what customers?

[deathbydanny]

You know, I could comment about another thread, old as dirt, being bumped, but then I can't help but think, "Whatever happened to that guy, and how terribly had he been managing his dick?"

Which will now be a line I use in specific situations. Like if I go to McDonald's and they forget my McNuggets, I can ask to speak to the manager, and when she walks up and I go "Are you the manager?" and she replies "Yes", I can say "Well then why don't you manage MY DICK!"

I could see how this would be fun in pointless situations. Boss giving you trouble? "Hey, Dick Manager, manage THIS DICK!"

You had to bump this to tell us its irrelevant? Thanks. Let's start thinking before we type.


I would be a lot more mad, but I missed this the first time around and its the most I've laughed in a long time. I miss Ignite.

Ha mad over a stupid post....o wait its me :p

the least you could do is flame more!

[AbandonedDreams]

I wouldn't really count "fuck _____" as flames. Nothing's really been worth it lately.

[deathbydanny]

Exactly why it was more worth the effort to make "dick manager" jokes rather than "HEY BASTARD YOU BUMPED OLD THREAD GWARRARRRHJAR".

Well, at least it was more worth the effort, and therefore more amusing, to me.

[AbandonedDreams]

Maybe I'm just really tired, but I read that post 3 times and it doesn't make sense to me.

[AbandonedDreams]

Also, I don't mind old threads being bumped to add new information. This guy keeps bumping really old threads to add "this is irrelevant" or something else that we all already know.

[zooworker]

You are irrevelent...........for bumping old threads with irrevelent info, so...

[Damien Oujia]

Not sure why I never noticed this thread before, but the OP's post could have been ripped right out of the experiences at my store. Fuck, Blockbuster customers are complete fucktards no matter where you go.

To the OP, you forgot one...and assuming your customers do the same stupid shit my customers do I guarantee you they are doing this at all the stores...

The customer is on the floor and can't find something so they go to the REGISTER to ask for help finding something on the FLOOR. INSTEAD of asking the employee on the FLOOR who is putting away movies and greeting people. And the same goes vice versa...they will approach the person on the FLOOR running the movies/greeting people to ask if there is a movie in the DROP BOX! Why the FUCK don't they waddle their wide asses to the register and ask the employees standing around back there?

FUCK!!!!!! Why is that so FUCKING HARD for people to understand they are asking the wrong person for the wrong thing!

I understand the frustrations with customers, but at the same time I never found what your saying to be a big issue.

My complaints with customers had more to do with them wanting me to reward them by taking off a large balance because they decided to throw a temper tantrum in my store.

If I was ever on the floor, and someone asks whats in the drop box; I guess I never had much of an issue going over to look. And same with behind the counter...as long as there wasn't a line. If there was then I would politely tell the customer to either wait or find the employee on the floor.

Over time, anything customers do can infuriate you but trivial stuff just never bugged me. From their perspective, your getting paid to help them and it shouldn't matter which employee they approach.

Just take a deep breath, smile, and do what you gotta do.

One, usually you have to go all over the store to find floor person and the floor person is always talking to someone , a customer or friend.(past experience,)
Two, it's so much easier to go to the front , because that's were most employees hang out.
Three, Is it so hard to help someone when they come to the front?
Four, make up your mind, do you want customers to ask floor person(who may be running movies ) or go to the front and bother employees for help.
And isn't it your job to help a customer? No matter who they ask working there.?
The store I go to helps you no matter who you ask. Like the service I get there.

No, I am just saying a thinking customer would ask more effectively. If I was in a grocery store and I needed help in the dairy section, I would try to find the employee closest to the dairy section as possible. I would not go to the produce section on the other side of the store and ask for help. Likewise, if I was a customer in a video store and I wondered if something was just returned, I would march my ass up to the front counter where they are checking in movies and ask, NOT go up to the employee on the other side of the store putting up movies in the W's when obviously they already ran the movies in the letters I am looking for and expect them to walk up to the front of the store when there are already three people I could have asked up there.

NO, it's not the biggest issue. But it's still a really fucking ineffective use of their time. My time, on the other hand? I get paid the same per hour whether they ask effectively nor not.
