after 10 PM convenience ??
ok on rt 22 there are 2 HESS gas stations within half a mile of each other.. not in a bad area either.. so its 10:30 tonight and i need a gallon of tea. i get to the 1st one and as im walking up to the door i hear a voice from a loud speaker to my left... here they have a freakin slide out thing now and the doors are locked. so i said i need a gallon of tea, the kid looks and says he is out, i said ok can you call the other store and see if they have any ?, he says i dont have the number for down there. wtf ????
so i drive down to the other store same situation with the doors locked but i dont see anyone .. i yell in the little hole where the slide out thingy is.. wait for a few minutes then i knock on the window pretty hard. ( hard enough to hear in the bathroom).. nothing so i am about to leave and i see 2 kids come in from the back door ( boy and girl).. now im pissed cuz they had to have heard me and my truck.. so i tap on the window i see them both look up and see me...
the boy walks right past me and into the side room then back to the back of the store, the girl comes up like she is going to wait on me turns her back to me grabs soemthing off the table and walks to the back of the store messing with a cappachino machine i think...
now i am livid !!!!! i go to sheetz get what i need just a diferent brand , and decide that tomorrow i will make a visit to the second store and speak to a manager....
i dont usually waiste time with complaining like this, i know the kids arent making allot of money but jesus does anyone insist on customer service anymore ? to completely ignore a customer in my eyes would be a firing offence....Tigers love pepper, they don't like cinnamon !

This sounds like a case of coitus interruptus.

Re: after 10 PM convenience ??
just got done speaking with the manager..
apparently the girl is not to have anyone inside with her !
told her axactly what i said above and she appologized, and after expressing my anger at the moment that i most likely woudl not be stopping there for gas or anythign else , she began to appologize even more and ask if there was any way to change my mind..
i simply said maybe in the future the management there woudl check on their employees now and then instead of leaving a 17-19 year old in charge without earning some trust ?
at that point i said sorry i wont be back and left.Tigers love pepper, they don't like cinnamon !

It's usually not a good idea to say you won't be back. That tells them fixing the problem won't even bring you back. Probably not a huge issue in this case, but sometimes it is. It also tells them that you won't be complaining anymore if the situation continues. So they have less incentive to fix it. You have removed both the positive reinforcement (sales) and punitive reinforcement (complaints or complaints further up the chain).

Re: after 10 PM convenience ??
in some cases i would agree but not in this one.. this is a local gas station, i grew up across the street, and i have met the manager and her gf a few times before, they know i am local and know manymany people in the area....
i am sure the problem will be resolved fairly quickly... and i am sure i will see her or her gf in the future and i am possitive she will let me know how things turned out....Tigers love pepper, they don't like cinnamon !
