From one retail worker to another. My most recent one was a lady who had the arrogance to comment on my weight who then yelled “fatso” at me when I ignored her and walked away.

    (no water bottles allowed at the tills per company policy)

    That has to be against OSHA, that’s some fucking bullshit. You need to stay hydrated! Call their bluff.

      I’m not in America, and as far as I can tell they’re just required to provide safe clean drinking water, which they do. They require any water/drinks to be kept around a corner since we deal in food prep sometimes, and as far as I’m aware it doesn’t break any labour code. Don’t get me wrong, I still do it since only one or two managers actually cares, but it sucks when the power tripping dipshits are on the schedule
