My life with Aspergers

Chapter 46- So I teared up... A little.

So this was last night when I was at work, I was at the front end and we had gotten a little busy and I was trying to get all the orders together. So this one customer ordered 3 4x4's (whatever they choose, and then they could get a 4 piece nugget and small fries).. And in case you didn't know I work at Wendy's. Well that's one of my jobs. I also work at Walmart. Might not be a good  career choice but they are just jobs to get some money right? Anyways after that customer ordered the 3 4x4's, I was trying to get the other customers orders put together because we had gotten busy. So awhile later like 15 minutes later that same customer had asked where her 3 4x4's were, and you can kind of understand that when it gets busy the workers there try their best to get the orders done right?

Well, apparently I was trying to fix that mistake but she wanted to talk to the manager. Once the manager came, she said to the manager that she wanted her money back. Now if the customer had asked nicely, then that would have been fine and just give the customer her money back right? But no, she had to be rude about it. After that incident I teared up a little. . And I normally don't cry at work but sometimes things can be sensitive to me and that was one of those things. So after the customer left, another customer tried to assured me that everything was okay.

But all I could do was I just wanted to cry a little but I tried holding it back. So after I took the customers order, he tried to give me a tip (money tip, not a actual tip) but I told him I couldn't accept it. But he just kept saying he was insistent. Later that night when I took another customer's order with his kids, those kids came back to the front telling me that I was doing a good job and they also tried to tip me too.

I told them I couldn't accept their tip. I promise I was not doing this out of pity. I was in a good mood before that one lady got upset at me. But then after that, my mood changed for the rest of that night. And for the rest of that night, I felt like I didn't deserve to be up front.
