Dumb Customers
So I am getting change at the Jewelry Cashrwrap. I have been going back and forth attempting to get change for like an hour by now because, by god I need some fucking nickles! They finally have some so I write out a change slip and go get some. The Shoe Sales lady is ahead of me to get change. I wait.
Here's the issue: I put up a sign at my register that states,"This Register is closed," while I'm gone. This is written in English and Spanish. While waiting to get my nickles I see a pack of 8 Mexicans walk up to my register with a shitload of Sears crap and just stand there. I'm like,"Fuck'em, I need nickles. They can go somewhere else." But they don't. They fucking wait there like a cashier is magically going to appear before their eyes. They all look like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off because they just keep bobbing around as if movement will conjur up assistance. I mean, there is a sign!! Can they not fucking read?! Even if they couldn't, you would think that after TEN minutes you would move elsewhere!
The sad thing is, this happens all the time. I swear if a manager or someone didn't come by and direct them to a different Cashwrap, they would stand there all fucking day. I don't get it.

what you are describing is something that is not uncommon of some of every single race on the face of this planet. I'm sure you got a batch of people that were just not very bright but a majority of people that sears attracts are like this whom coincidentally happened to be Mexican but that doesn't go to stand for every single one out there. They are really doing what any one of us would do and as sad as it may sound to me even I used to work at Sears and maybe some of you might have once worked at McDonald's or Walmart but we all have to start somewhere. You are for sure seeing some cultural differences though such as by majority a lot of Mexicans are of a faith that does not believe in birth control and it's human nature to have sex and often. Put those two in the equation and the result is quite obvious. A lot of them are very nice and seem to appreciate that I at least understand enough to know what they ask me and to give an appropriate response using the correct syntax. Actually it is a compromise and is correct that a lot of Latinos foreign born speak English enough or are with friends who do so that you can understand them speaking easier as it is in spanish and can understand you back when you speak english. They do work rather hard to earn something for their kids to be able to do what you are capable of potentially just the same whether you pursue it or not. Sure it is common courtesy that if you are going to be on extended stay in another country to learn the native language to a functional extent, but it's also good courtesy to learn just as much at the least of any other local language spoken in that area. I personally speak varying amounts of Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, Tagalog, Italian, Russian and German. A lot of people treat me well for even making the effort and anyone who would become impatient with me more than reasonable would be no better than and of the people in this room who appear to lack the same patience. It's a two way street.
All the mexicans in here should shut up and cut my lawn.
Wow. I am a white wealthy female. I frequently discriminate against mexicans and blacks. However, you idiots sound like you should be mowing their lawns. "They always still jobs from high school kids." That's funny, I was under the impression that the word you are looking for here is 'steal'."Thay we never go anywhere in life..." Possibly a freudian slip? That means your subconscious slipped up and spoke for you... The mexicans could teach you lazy asses a little something about hard work and literacy.
SEARS = SCOTT WALKER
BOTH GOES TO HELL!!!
I work at the Sears in Topeka, Mexicans do that ALL the time here. SO ANNOYING. I hate my job so much I just naturally hate all the customers here. plus, being paid for standing around is just ridiculous. If i wouldve known i would have never taken this job. FUCK SEARS. the managers need to get off their high horses too. I mean, there just Sears managers. NO BIG DEAL.
WOW! you all really hate your jobs! You are working in CUSTOMER SERVICE! if you don't like dealing with all kinds of people, then get another job! Seriously, you complain about having to pass items through a scanner like its so hard to do. You are getting paid to do all those things, not for free, so suck it up, get your check and go home!... or go to school so you won't ever have to do that again.
Well I'm Mexican, my parents are business owners, and I just got accepted into Berkeley and UCLA. I have an internship at a great firm. My future looks bright! which is more than I can say for you who work at SEARS making minimum wage!! You are obviously so miserable with your worthless lives that you feel the need to bash other hardworking people. So shut up and go organize ugly clothes!
White, black, mexican , or otherwise we are all Americans. Deal with it.
Wow, I guess Taco Tuesdays are off the menu. Anyways.. Just freaking tell them to go to a different register. If they dont understand, just point your finger in that direction. I hate Sears as much as anyone, but for better reasons than not having basic manners and a general respect for other people. Quit being an ass and you may start to get customers that aren't dumb. - 9 mo. @ Sears as commission sales, now an MCA.
