There was time when I was working at Kroger and I saw this very angry customer leaving the store with her groceries, I ask her how she doing. She walk pass me without responding back to my question and it made me a little angry. When she left the store angry she run over my foot with the grocery cart by accident and don't say anything. It made me very angry and I wanted to say something back to the rude customer but I was very afraid of losing my job. During my day of work I was angry and did not talk to anyone so my manager called me into his office. I told him what the rude customer did to me and he asked me to decribe the customer. The world is not a friendly place and people must understand that because racism and violence. I hate working around unhappy customers because when I see angry customers shopping at my kroger grocery store it depress me and make me want to quit. I been working for kroger for a year in a half and this is not the first time this happened to me. One time I was pushing grocery carts and four customers inside a truck started teasing me with their car. I tried to push the carts across the street about three times and the customers stood right their teasing me with the car. Finally they raise down the window and cuss me out for no reason this what they said. "Get your a.. out the street you're in the way damn". I look at the customers mad and they ask me do I have a problem. I never said anything back to those guys because inside their car I saw two weapons and I walk away like a coward because I really love my job. I kept it to my self, I never told my manger about it and later after work I told my family about it. People are stress all the time and never talk to everyone during their bad day. I wish I can work around happy customers and maybe I would not leave my job over angry customers.

Nicely done, Devon. I have
Nicely done, Devon. I have read a lot of blog posts today but none that did a better job of making me feel the emotions of the person writing. I think I probably understand your post better than many that I read because I too have worked a lot of jobs where I had to put up with rude and abusive people. Hang in there, and keep writing.
