    Woman confuses me for employee, gets locked out of the store leaving her groceries behind. XL So last night I'm finishing up my shift as an EMT and it's been a long and tiring one. The calls weren't bad, but there were a lot of them and we were all over the county. Shift is over, I change back into my comfy clothes (sweats, T-Shirt, hoodie) and I head to the store to get something for dinner.

I get in my car to drive off but she's standing in front of it so I can't go anywhere. She's also giving me a tongue lashing that I'm too checked out to really pay attention to. Great, I'm already on my last nerve and this woman is hate Jit.

    Manager sticks his head out of the door and hollers "Ma'am!" She turns and makes a hushing motion towards him. He hollers "Ma'am!" one more time and she hollers back saying "I'm dealing with your employee since you're too much of a little do it yourself!" He bristles and says "Madam!" to "!" She cuts him off with "SHUT THE screeched at the top of her lungs. He shrugs and I watch him go back inside, fiddle with the locks, flip the sign to closed and pull down the shades. As I'm watching this she

    I just pointed at the shop and say "They just closed and locked the doors." I'm not sure what she screamed since it was pretty incoherent but she did run towards the door. Seeing my chance, I drove off leaving her pounding on the door and cursing.

    my_meat_is_grass_fed So, question. Do employees who are on the clock really make a regular habit of pretending to not work somewhere, while also conveniently being out of uniform, to the point assuming someone is lying is valid? 454 Share
