Tj Maxx is my favorite store and it is my safe space. That being said, unfortunately I went into Tj Maxx next to Ross on Dix on Monday and was met by the rudest employee. I am gen z and am very patient and overly understanding when it comes to retail and service workers. However, this cashier I had had said and done multiple rude actions in our small and unfortunate window of conversation. This worker proceeded to scoff at me loudly as I asked for a small discount because the last two decorative candles both had big gouges, putting her headphone in her coworkers ear as i'm standing waiting to be checked out and had to wait for her to be done showing her coworker what she was listening to as I had a line of 10 people behind me, and then the kicker, multiple times telling me the candle (that she scoffed at) smelled horrible, disgusting and it had a weird smell (reiterating multiple times looking for a response) and then proceeds to blow a raspberry in my face because she did not like the smell of the candle. All I am saying is please have a conversation with this employee as no one would have given her as much grace as I did and probably would have been extremely rude back to her. I left that interaction feeling so horrible and belittled and uncomfortable and just want her to be trained on how to interact with customers. Thank you read more
