People who aren't cashiers do not understand how difficult our job can be (yes it's more than punching a few buttons and making change). Between answering the phone, restocking inventory, weighing produce, and checking people out, I sometimes barely have a moment to take a breath. This is what a typical cashier shift looks like told my Squidward Tentacles.
1.You get to work and are determined to have a good day.
2.But then as you clock in, you sort of remember how much you hate your job.
3. Because being a cashier isn’t a glamorous. At all.
4. And then there’s that one customer you just can’t stand who always comes in when you’re working.
5. You’re also kind of worried that you’re going to get fat off of the free food you eat during your shift.
6. You know that deep down you won’t have to work here forever… hopefully.
7. People often get upset with you about prices... as if you have control over them.
8. And someone always tries to come in as you are closing out the register.
9. When it's time to clock out, you do that little victory dance
10. But it’s over quickly because you know you have to come back tomorrow
I actually do work as a cashier, and although it can be difficult at times, at the end of the day, I really do love my job. If you live in the Dallas area, come to Dymond's Family Market! (Shameless free advertising, I know)
