ysabetwordsmith notalwaysright_feedRead Manager Override Override
I got super fed up with this and kept track of EVERYTHING a manager let happen. If a manager one time let a customer buy this for this amount of money. Every single time a customer asked about it, I would call the manager over and get him to override it.

Patron: "How do I check out books without opening an account?"
Me: "You can't do that without an account, ma'am, but you're free to browse all of our books on the premises without one."

I get an alert from #11 and see on the playback that he tried to scan his bread, but it just didn't take. No problem, we can have a short chat about it while I fix the issue and go back to my post. A moment later, I get another alert from #11. When I approach, I see he's piled up several items I assume he intends to scan on the bagging area instead of the table attached to the other side.

notalwaysright_feedRead The Door-Buster Sale Went Too Far!
Just before we open the store, an SUV loses control and crashes into our entrance. No one is hurt, but the way in and out of the front of the building is obviously blocked. The police and ambulance arrive to deal with the situation.
I'm sitting outside the store, taking advantage of the surprise downtime to enjoy a cigarette. A customer walks up to the building and gets within five feet of the entrance before they actually realize what's happening.

Talking to my mentor, she suspects the reason the students are giving me a hard time is because that other teacher has been telling them I am not doing things the right way, because I don't do it the same way she does.

Two tables finally opened that would seat his party of five:
