Stressful work

On weekdays and Sundays too. I get very stressed out about bring in lots of carts from the Safeway’s parking lot, bottle machines that always break down a lot. Plus the sweep logs too.
Also getting very annoyed with 3 other courtesy clerk coworkers that are bossing me around . I have the same job tittle as other courtesy clerk coworkers that.

@blackcat19mb I used to do what you are doing now. But it was many years ago and they called us box boys and box girls. Scanners weren't invented yet. So our job was to bag groceries and in those days we asked every customer if they would help out with their groceries. I also had to do price checks (since there were no scanners), cleanups, and putting away go-backs.

I actually enjoyed helping people out with their groceries and I would collect carts at the same time. The reason that I liked it was because I was able to get out of the store. I later became a checker. It paid better. But to me being a courtesy clerk was more fun. As a checker, I had to stand in the same place all day long. For me, I enjoyed pushing in carts and going on price checks and putting away go-backs.

Just do your job. Try to do the best job you can do. Bring in more carts than your co-workers do. Be friendly with the customers. Just ignore your co-workers. If you have a good attitude and you act like they don't bother you, eventually they will stop bossing you around. Most people like that are bullies and if they don't get a rise out of you...it is no longer fun for them.

And, as a bonus, your boss will notice what a good job you are doing and give you better or more hours and possibly a promotion. Attitude is everything!
