New worker tried to take an entire sale
At where I work whenever someone helps you out with a sale they polite thing to do is to add their name on to it so that way you both get credit.
Now I do like to give people their credit where it's due. For example if my coworker is the one walking a customer through everything and all I do is ring them up I will put my coworker's name on the ticket and take mine off entirely because I didn't do anything but sit behind the counter and ring them out.
Today we had a man come in who recently bought a house and he's looking for a lot of furniture so it's going to be a big ticket sale for us.
Now I was the one who greeted him and I walked him through what furniture set he was going to get, as well as the mattress he was going to get, and I was the one who was first talking to him about what type of couches and tables he was interested in.
Well we did not have the couch in stock that he wanted and I went to check if a different store of ours had the couch and we could just get it from them.
Well I'm doing this the new coworker of mine walks over to the guy and she starts sales pitching at him and convinces him to buy a completely different couch set.
So I'm like okay you did help out so I'm going to put your name on the ticket.
I thought that was fair.
Well I get back to the computer and she has my name taken off of it and only her name on it.
So I had my name back on to it but keep her on there because again she didn't convince the guy to buy a different couch set so that way our store would still get the sale for it so she did help out.
Since my name was on the sales ticket first that means that she literally had to click on the ticket and take my name off of it.
Then when I put my name back on the sales ticket my manager asked me if I had even spoken to the guy and she literally sat there and said nothing.
So I'm standing there defending myself for why I'm putting my name back on it because it's like yeah I'm the one who greeted the guy when he came in and helped him pick out his bedroom set.
I just kind of think though that when he asks that that she could said something.
Then for the rest of the day she pretty much didn't say two words to me.
It's like yeah look I did not take your sale. You tried to take mine and I was still nice enough to have your name on there and split with you. 245
