So work at Family Christian today was perfect right until the end.
This lady came in and was hassling me all night, sending me running all over the store looking for things, asking me at least a thousand obvious questions. And yeah, I get it. That's my job. To run all over the store and answer a zillion questions if that's what the customer wants.
But tonight I was exhausted. And my back was in unbearable pain, not to mention a throbbing headache and cramps (I think I'm getting sick, and PMSing...). But I still remained very polite and friendly to this woman.
So she leaves and I walk over to Ken and say "Wow, that lady was sure giving me a hard time" or something to that effect.
Big mistake. I know that. I'm not going to pretend like it was ok for me to say that. Understandlable? Maybe. But I shouldn't have been surprised that when the lady overhead me, she demanded an apology, said I was extremely rude and that she was going to call my manager and give him my name.
Great.
Just perfect. Because John doesn't have enough reason already to find me annoying (which he's never actually claimed to, I just feel like I annoy him).
So I apologized to her. Not that that helped any. She seemed a little.. slow, kind of. Not mentally ill, just not very smart. She went on about how she was a Christian woman and that she would expect me to act the same, so on and so forth. So yeah, basically I feel like crap now. I feel bad for talking about a customer. I feel bad that I offended her. I feel scared that she really is going to call John and tell him about me. I mean, Ken said he'd back me up and all, but I don't know. I just feel bad for saying anything to begin with. I deserve to be called on I suppose. Just hope I don't lose my job or get in trouble over this. =[
UGhh. And it's hard not to be mad at this woman.
Gotta go. I've got some forgivin' to do..

How can she go on about being Christian when she contradicted her self by getting mad at you, then "attacking" you and then demanding an apology for what you said. Arent you supposed to just turn the other cheek and let it roll off your back? I hope she realizes that.
Remeber that guy from agape yesterday? The older guy that I talked to? Pray for him everynow and then when you remember. I think he could use it.
It happens to the best of us.
Not saying it's right or wrong,
just letting you know almost everyone has or will experience that. I've been there, ha. It's okay.
<3
Guy: How can I go about being Christian when I talk about people behind their backs? I think we're both in the wrong here, but I'm only responsible for and able to judge my own actions, you know?
Calla: Thank you. Really. <3 For some reason your comment made me feel better =]
f*ck her she's lame.
i had an asshole customer like her a few weeks ago. people are douchebags just to be douchebags.
even ones who call themselves something that they don't show in their actions.
