Tesco employee reveals customer remarks that make staff furious – NewsEverything | Scotland

A Tesco employee has shared a number of customer remarks that infuriate staff members.

Supermarket worker Holly Dixon took to social media platform TikTok to reveal some of the most common comments that customers say to her when they place their products on the conveyor belt.

She has confirmed that all of them make her cringe.

Cheshire Live reports that Holly uploaded a video to TikTok in which she listed some of the statements that she hears “at least 10 times each shift” while working on the tills at Tesco, including the awkward “joke” that people always make whenever an item refuses to scan.

In the clip, posted to her account @hollydixon2112, she detailed that the first thing she hears every day is customers telling her that they “only came in for one thing”, despite having what appears to be “the whole shop ” in their trolley.

Next up was the classic joke: “Oh, it’s not scanning? It must be free!” To which an unimpressed Holly simply wrote in text on the video: “Absolutely not.”

Finally, the employee said she isn’t fond of customers who say she “looks bored” and state they’re going to “give her something to do” by choosing her till for their shopping.

She said: “I was happy chilling and counting down the minutes until I finish.”

In the comments, some people shared their own experiences with working in supermarkets as they quoted other popular phrases that customers use whenever they’re at work.

One person said: “I get asked if I’m worried about losing my job if they use the self-service till.”

While another added: “Or they ask for a lottery ticket and then go ‘the winning one would be good’ when you ask what one they want.”

And others admitted they’ve definitely used these common sayings at least once, with one user posting: “I hold my hand up that I’m probably one of these people that say these things.”

While Holly might poke fun at the customers she sees while working in Tesco, she defended her job in the comments when someone suggested it was “time for a job change”, as she said: “I love my job.”
