The job is all about patience, but tonight mine was pushed to the limit. Summertime in New Jersey means hot, thick, humid air and for the last five years, I have always loved how cold the air conditioning was in the store. However, lately it has been uncomfortably warm in the store and tonight I finally asked why that was so. Turns out, there was a customer complaint that the store was too cold. Grocery stores are all about customer satisfaction, so the simple solution was to raise the temperature in the store. Since I am part-time, my hours fluctuate weekly as well as in length. Tonight I had a 7-hour shift and I was sweating the entire time. Customers are in the store for how long? Anywhere ranging from a few minutes to maybe an hour at max is my best answer. How selfish can you be? Us employees have to be uncomfortable for hours on end as a result. This really bothers me but there is nothing I can do. Hopefully someone complains it's too hot now, otherwise this will be one miserable summer. I guess it still beats working out in the heat all day but I never expected this.
