At one point I had a job handing out sample chocolate at supermarkets. I was setting up my stand. This was during covid, so we had to disinfect everything, set up a clear shield on the stand, plus put on gloves and hand out chocolate with disinfected tongs. I also had to get changed into my uniform.

I said I'll give you some if you come back in five minutes as I'm still setting up.

She lost her mind. Started calling me a fucking bitch, bad sales person, that she knows the owner of the chocolate company and will get me fired. Complained about me to the supermarket manager. When I went to change into uniform she was following me around still carrying on.

After I had set up she came back and said I'll have that chocolate now. I refused to serve her. I said sorry I don't need to take your abuse. She responded by saying you're the abusive one lol. Wild.

That's awful. Btw what did the manager say?

Not a lot. I had a customer witness all this who also told the manager. So while the manager was on my side, he didn't say much as to how to handle it.
