So a lady came in to buy a fan tonight, mind you it's been 100+ here for a few days now so they're selling like hotcakes. Anyway,she said she didn't want her receipt so I threw it away. A few hours later they came back and the fan had been opened and had a crack in the blade. Per policy we cannot give exchanges or refunds without a receipt. She said she's either getting a new fan or her money or she's calling the cops. Idk what's going to happen but she demanded my name (just mine,not my managers) and I politely gave it to her. Let it be noted that I was courteous throughout the interaction, I learned from my mistake at Walmart.

Give receipts people...

So I got fired from my job at Walmart.

I had tended to the self checkouts, there was 1 cashier for four units and I'd noticed that my coworker wasn't on his side. I look and he's helping this older woman scan items. I was confused because she looked perfectly capable of scanning items. I asked casually what was going on. He explained she had asked for his assistance in using the self checkouts she said "Yeah he's doing his JOB. I said "well it's fine if she needs some help BUT...". (I was going to say if you need help go to a regular register)

And then I stopped myself,I realized based on her initial snark it wouldn't do any good to say anything. So I walked away and cleaned the area. All the while she's yelling"BUT WHAT,BUT WHAT,I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOUR MANAGER!

I continue walking away and waving her off and saying I'm dropping it

My coworker comes back over and I lean over and whisper "wow what a bitch"..

My deadly mistake. She heard me. "Oh I'm a bitch am I!? Get your manager!" and I gathered up the take backs that belonged at customer service and started walking over to put them away. Suddenly I hear "YEAH WALK AWAY FAT ASS"

I turned on her, "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST CALL ME" and that was the nail in my coffin. the next day I was fired.

Just needed to vent about this. I was wrong. But she deserved it

Clarification edit: I was in no way upset with him for helping her. I was furious with her for treating us like her personal slaves. If you need help go to a non self checkout.

We have a store run by some middle eastern folk moving in next door and my manager and co worker found it hilarious to call them towel heads and make rude remarks about their language and all that. How do I take this to HR
