I did a few shifts on the markdown gun back in my 6th form days back before the reductions were automated and could do as we pleased. I didn’t have the stones to take the piss too much but often had other staff members with whole weekly shops reduced to pennies come through my till.
My main gig was fag kiosk/customer services/store announcer. Also good potential for loopy customers and shady dealings.
I used to be a markdown person for a couple of years, the worst is when people would haggle,
I’m trying to explain I am controlled by the handset and not autonomous, I cannot give and extra 5p off the bread rolls, they would not believe me, but just call me a discount cop.
