I'm a firm believer of hanging up on a "guest" once they start calling you names. And in person walking away. I'm a manager at my place and I don't let anyone talk down on my workers or me.
I worked at a call center and one of the supervisors said I can't hang up on rude customers 😐 ma'am. yall don't pay me enough to be verbally abused 🙃 If they cuss AT me I give one warning . if they do it again , I hang up 🥰🤭
I’ve put people back on hold for being rude😂 either that or I snap back ✨ professionally ✨
Nobody likes a Karen.
I lost it when she grabbed your hands.. people are so entitled and swear they have so much power just because theyre a customer..
I used to work at a pharmacy and I've had a LOT of customers yell at me for just doing my job, the worst one being a man who told me to go EDUCATE myself because I refused to disclose private information about his partner that he was not allowed to access without her consent. I have a Bachelor's degree, a Master's and I'm almost done with my MBA. SIT YO ASS DOWN SIR
💖💖💖💕
GIRL i felt that in my chest. I used to work at a CVS and the AUDACITY that these entitled customers had over things I had no control over like not having their morphine in stock.
Nikki when u did the southern man's impression I fell out laughing!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂
Everyone should be required to work customer service whether it be retail or food. I’ve seen people act like animals…it’s really sad
As soon as a client cusses on the phone, I hang up. They can call back when they collect themselves 😌
I’ve had a lady tell me I wasn’t confident in myself because I talk soft. And my manager got so upset with that lady lol
I'm a manager at target and I've lost count on the amount of rude and entitled customers I've dealt with. Thankfully I'm good at putting my "professional" mask on and just smiling and keeping a kind tone when I'm dealing with problematic customers.
I have absolutely no doubt. I’m so sorry you have to deal with that on a regular basis. It really is a skill to maintain your professionalism in situations like that!
@thatgayredneck5580 I’m so sorry you have to go through that I have mad mad respect for you😁😁😁
I have lost all patience.. Can't tell you the amount of times I've given rude customers a taste of thier own medicine, as unprofessional and immature of me to do so I eventually stoped living by the motto (customers always right) ... Granted it definitely depends on your job what you can and can not get away with and yes I've been in trouble for it but I have to say it feels dam good and I basically say the things everyone wished they could 🫣🙃
It’s not always entitled to ask for what you need tho. The target in Seattle is a mess. I have a SD I have autism. The manger there don’t do shit about it. I’ve reported it multiple times that there’s pets at your store and they don’t really care. The dogs at target have even attacked my service dog and they did nothing.
👏👏👏💕
I used to work at target a couple years ago and I’m literally telling you that place made me suicidal, the WORST establishment I’ve ever worked for. Costumers are rude, entitled, and condescending. Meanwhile management does not stick up for their employees, for anyone reading this, there’s a million better jobs.
This is why I cannot go back to customer service. I do not have the patience or compassion for those people
I work in Costco and some of the members seem to think because they pay for a membership it means they have the right to treat the staff like pieces of shit 😂
I’m a manager and I had an encountered with a rude customer the other day who was yelling at one of my coworkers and then tried yelling at me I told him if he continues I’ll give him his refund and he can be escorted out of my store by security
Beginning of the video reminded of something that happened to me. I’m a hair twirler, as well as a leg shaker, and a ring fidgeter. Fifth grade math, Mrs. Mohan: I was twirling my hair and I am not the best at math, so she said in front of everyone, “stop trying to look cute in front of the boys and focus on your work. Stop messing with your hair.” I’ll never forget that. I grab strands without even thinking about it and I always have, for as long as I can remember
That Target sounds disgusting 🥴 that man should not have been allowed back whatsoever
This is what happens to people who don’t have a backbone. Employees have rights too. If a customer crosses a line, it’s the employee’s responsibility to refuse service, bring it up with their manager/supervisor IMMEDIATELY and proceed up the chain of command if the issue isn’t resolved. It’s simple, really, but not to those who have low confidence and low self esteem.
I WAS JUST REWATCHING OLD STORYTIMES 😭 thankyou Nikki, I got my wine and snacks and I’m ready to sit and listen
Girl I worked retail in MIAMI😥 I can't describe how AWFUL that was.
When I was 20 I worked in the tech department at target. Never again, simple because of the customers. My last straw was trying to fix this old man’s phone and he specifically told me to open his safari and nothing but porn came up and he tried to hit on me…I was over it😂 the workers were always lovely for the most part♥️
I worked at a beauty supply store in my early twenties and I’ve had so many rude and just entitled people. One guy told me “time is of the essence” as I’m ringing his things out. Mind you, at the time this beauty supply store did not have scanners. So I had to manually plug in every product by the sku number. 😅 I had another lady that came in looking for curly hair products but didn’t know what she needed. I started out by asking what she’s used before and she said idk. Then I tried showing her some products and explain what they do and she was just not receptive to anything I was saying to her and then proceeded to tell me I speak too loud. If you know me you know that’s ridiculous Lmao. Asked for the manager. I was happy to walk away 🤭 I’ve had money thrown on the counter. I’ve had people mad at me for asking for ID back then we were required to match cards to ID. Retail is rough. Also…that lady that grabbed your hands deserved her hands slapped. Who tf does that?!?!?! Ew.
I worked in the fashion/jewelry department at my store for 6 years and this just gave me horrific flashbacks.
I need to have my partner see this because he’s never experienced rude customers and to this day looks at me sideways when I tell him I had a rude customer.
my bf didn't get it either I felt he thought I was too emotional and It was very annoying not having someone who understood and would just let me vent
Some older people really lack boundaries when it comes to just interactions like this. Like her putting her hands on you is soo out of pocket. Speaking up in situations like this is hard ugh
My mum is exactly like you. She''s extremely kind, hard working and goes out her way for other people in her working environment so they take advantage of her and always drives her to leave because it's just not worth it in the end. YOU COME FIRST ANGELIC QUEEN 💖💖
This is exactly why I can't work retail. I did food service, and that was enough for me. Having to approach people and walk them to their location would be so stressful. I hate having to ask for help, and I only ask for help if I REALLY need it. I get that you can, and you're SUPPOSED to, but if you know you need help and the person around you is DOING something, just walk up and ask. Don't be a weirdo and just walk in circles around them, hoping they notice you. 😂 I'm crying laughing at how you sound like a hillbilly character from South Park pretending to be that man. LOL.
“It sounded like that man drank oil for breakfast, okuuur!” 😂 💀
Nikki we are told don’t bring feelings to work. But they expect us to understand where customers are coming from. Sometimes they are too much.
I will never work customer service EVER AGAIN!!! ALWAYS BE NICE TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALWAYS TIP UR SERVERS,OR ANYONE WHO SERVES U IN ANYWAY
I quit Target before Christmas. I stayed exactly 3 months . I realized I rather be a “guest “ not a “team member “ there. They liked me a lot too lol. I knew retail wasn’t for me but I tried it. I’m more of a server at restaurants.
Just had a crazy customer encounter the other day at a restaurant i just help out at. I was so close to going over that counter like mam I’m not even an employee here so you wanna have a problem, we can do that.
I had someone butthurt over the fact that I had to get a large bill checked out by a supervisor. He was pretty regular at the location. I was working at a coffee shop and told him that it was store policy. My coworker who was working longer than me told him the exact same thing.
As someone who works for target in the kids section I hate when ppl walk around and not ask for help. Don’t ask no help🤷🏽♀️ also target is a horrible company to work for🤞🏾
YASSS FINALLY!!!! been waiting for another STORYTIMEEEE by the queen herself! Absolutely love your videos ❤
ABOUT TIME .. we need it a story ❤🎉
I got youuuu!! 💕
I moved to a safer area recently- y'know where we don't hear gunshots every night- and found a new job at a pricey home decor store. We have a table at the front door with a sign for our members to get 50% off on the items on that table ONLY. This lady came in to check out with like 12 items and asked me to price check all of them to make sure they were 50% off. No problem, so I did. They were all full price.
She explains why she thought they were all 50% off with "Oh I thought that sign meant the entire store was 50% off" ... what? we ain't going out of business what do you meeean 😂
But I explain what that sign means and how that one table works with our membership of course, and she just agrees that she wants all 12 items even though it's full price.
She then brings up the 50% off thing again to the other lady she was with and they're not understanding for some reason, so she tells me to get a manager over here to explain it better. So I do! He comes over, says the same thing I just told her, and leaves.
Not even kidding you barely a minute after my manager walked away she mumbles to me "speak English". Those rose-tinted glasses of being in a nicer area wore off real quick.
I told a coworker what happened while I was just in shock that she said that to me, and my manager came back to check on me. It's not the worst thing that has happened to me in retail, but it's fresh and she hit me pretty hard because I thought I was safe now.
I've been in love with your videos since your "boop boop boop boop" opening sequence 😢😊💖
Nikki thank you, I’ve missed your storytimes so much
💖💖💖❤
Nikki really got the best story times, u never leave me bored girl 😂💛
👏👏👏🔥
I absolutely hate customer service. I'm a super friendly, talkative person so people always assume I'm good at customer service. But no, I absolutely do not taking getting yelled at well. I will loose my ever loving mind with no hesitation.
Managers who think their minimum wage retail jobs are the most important things in the world are literally the worst. I had a manager at Staples who, after I gave my 2 weeks, wouldn't give me proof of employment for my residency for university because she only does that for "current employees." I said aight then I'm not coming to work for my last 2 weeks since I'm not employed by you lol. She went on this while rant about how this will heavily effect my entire career and show that I'm not reliable blah blah. Anyways, I just leave off Staples from my job history now and literally no one has ever once asked me about it 😂
i love how you handled the situation. i would have handled it completely differently
Lmfaoo! You imitating the southern accent guy reminds me of South Park 😭😂❤
I'm so glad that the store i work in is super understanding and we are all like family there but i have definitely had my experiences with customers that love doing the most.
💖💖💖💚
This video triggered me a tiny bit because I know all too well how crappy customer service could be. People complain about customer service but they don’t know the mental nutcases that a lot of customer service reps have to deal with. People want good service but are very entitled, rude and try to treat customer service/people who work with the public as punching bags. People are starting to get tired of the bs and are going on to bigger/better things.
I love listening to bad retail stories cuz I work retail too I don’t feel so alone now
I worked at Target & they nit pick the f*** out of everything.
I was called treat like shit by my assistant managers AND my manager.
They LOVED the high school kids, but as someone who was 26 with 2 kids, they treat me incredibly horrid!
My customers were majority amazing, I only had 2 negative experiences.
I love being in customer service BUT I hated the coworkers/bosses.
They treat older people (older than high school) like shit.
They also would purposely not give you full time hours too.
Target is a great place to work for high school individuals whom are responsible lol
“Eff you & the horse you rode in on, foo.” 😂😂😂

It's a shame when we call one storytime every two months being spoiled
@@alyssahamlett i mean its better than none
@@alyssahamlett She's a mom and very busy outside of UA-cam. This platform is only one aspect of her life. So I'm sure she's doing the best she can and just like anyone else if she only focused on one aspect of her life the other parts would suffer. Life is busy it's not like she's ignoring us.
💖💖💖👏
My worst customer encounters were working at Target. I had an old man call me worthless there 😂 at that point all you can do is walk away and learn to laugh it off
She said F you and the horse you rode in on sir 😂😂😂😂
Girl I’ve missed your story times❤ I was hoping you would post.
Thank you! I’ve missed your story times so much 😭
I use the grapefruit scented stick but I will have to try the spray of the NATIVE 😁
Let no one ever lay a hand on you, but I am one of those people who can’t stand it when others shake their legs around me, especially if we are on the same bench or at the same table. I feel the vibrations and I am so tempted to put my hands on their knees, but of course, I never do. It’s just a pet peeve.
AHHHH NIKKI! I MISSED YOU! I screamed when I got your notif, this is so perfect for me to watch rn while I get ready for school. love yuuuu 💖💖💖💖
You are so sweet!! Thank you so much for being a ride or die for me! Have a great day at school! Don't let anybody talk to you crazy. Make me proud Bestie!! 💕
Bestie you came just in time! I’ve been rewatching your old videos 🥰
a family member had just passed away, i found out today and i played every movie, video, Disney movie to get my mind off of it. I could only get through 2 minutes of it. Your the only one who can get my mind off of it, thank you nikki
From fast food experience if you ever hang up expect them to show up like 20 - 30 mins later 😂😂
You are back!!😊😊 I’m so excited to watch this love you Nikki!
The flashbacks this gave me after working at Walmart in Compton
i love you so so so much and i look forward to your videos every week! thank you for getting me through each day! 💗
I don't know if you have been in a store recently, but you cannot find an employee and if by some chance you do find an employee they are on their cell phones. If they are not on their cell phones they are giggling with their friends, asleep, standing in a corner, standing in the way, ignoring you, doing everything they want...except their job. I never ask for help, I search the internet for product questions, I call the 1-800 customer service number, and then pick up the item from the store. I do anything I can to avoid speaking to the employees.
I love Native so much! So happy to see you collabing with them!
Yesssss been waiting for another STORY TIME 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Girl I haven’t eaten all day because Im fasting. It’s Ramadan. I got home from my 9 hours job and took a shower. Im watching your storytime as I wait for the time to break fast. It really makes me feel better
This is such a special treat for my bday today! Your videos always make my day. Sending you and your lovely family lots of love! ❤
YES!! Girl, I’m at work with an AirPod in my ear 😅😂 you will get me through this day
I'm LOVING the new intro!!! ❤ I love you so much girl😊
I’ve missed your videos so much. Thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️
LMAOO, I talk back. If you want help you need to ask, I’m not your mom so I’m not going to walk around and help you. I’m a human I’ll speak to up professionally but I will not put up with you being rude and entitled. My go to is “ma’am if you’re going to speak to me like that I can get someone else to help you but I will not be putting up with being talked to like I’m less than, I’m also a person. So if you’d like help please ask rather than demand.” They get a reality check and my manager has gotten into saying it.
Yessss! Was watching your videos all day 🤍☺️
I was just watching one of your videos and then you popped up with a new storytime I'm so excited for another storytime
Yesterday I got threatened by a customer that if I don’t remember his name I’m going to “regret it” and “nothing good is going to come out of it” like sir what? He said he was coming back in seven days for another encounter 🤨🤨 police were called but still his demeanor overall was scaring me
Yay!!! Glad to see you back beautiful!!!
One time when I was in the fourth grade I always had the habit of tying my shoe laces as tight as i could. I would tie them over and over maybe like 7 times a day. On one occasion my teacher got so frustrated and called me to the front of the class. Keep in mind i was never a trouble maker. I always gave my best. I would even bring this teacher gifts from time to time. Anyways, he called me to the front and grabbed his scissors and was about to cut my shoe laces of. My family was broke those were the only shoes I had and you could see in his face he thought twice about what he was going to do. He chose not to cut them. Then he told me to go back to my seat but he said that if i continued to do that he would cut them.
At that time i was so scared that if i told my parents i would get in trouble but i wish i would have because that is just wrong.
I love you so much Nikki i have been watching you since i was in middle school and i am now a senior in high school. ❤
29:26 man…I worked in customer service for years and had people threaten to slap me, kill me, and try and get me fired. Wasn’t until i got a little older where I would give them that same energy back but still remain professional. It stopped after that.
Watching this on break at work is a whole vibe
I really hate when someone tells me that something I’m doing with my body ie leg bouncing tapping wringing my hands is annoying them 🥴 because how is what I’m doing to myself with my own body affecting you . Yes I verbally let them have it. Yep I worked at target😂 and didn’t put up with foolishness. I know if she would touch me I would have flipped out.
Lmao your southern man imitation was perfect 🤣 that was the Texan in you coming out hahahaha! Im from Dallas too & had a manager who talked JUST like that & was always sounded like a dang grump!!! Too silly
Also you could do a South Park character lmao
Gave me something to listen to while I'm bored at work, thanks bestie!
💖💖💖👍
