It always slightly boggles my mind when customers ask me if I work at my store.
Because like...I'm wearing a uniform shirt with my work's name on it.
I have a name tag on.
Like...compared to other stores, it should be pretty obvious that I work here.
And yet, customers still ask me if I work here despite the clear signs I do.
Today was even more mindboggling.
Because like I was up on one of our fish ladders, my arm deep in the fish tank there as I was scrubbing the glass to get it free from algae and such.
And this customer came up to me and asked me if I worked here.
Like....O_o
My hand is deep in the tank. I'm on a ladder. It's obvious I'm scrubbing things.
Why would I NOT be a worker here?
*shakes head*
I mean...I can see why customers would want to double check before asking their question.
I've had my moments in other stores --like barnes and noble--where I wasn't sure if a person worked in the store or not and asked them.
But their uniforms are more...discrete than the bright blue shirt I wear at my job.
And maybe the customer was thinking that perhaps I couldn't help if I was doing some other job?
Or that I was a maintenance person fixing the tank??
Who knows.
Still find it kinda funny that the customer had to ask though.
