Ok well I just need to have a whinge.......some knob head customer that bought sauce sometime last night thought it would be funny to spread it around the female toilets door handle.....and I was the one to find out when I went to clean them out this morning. And if that wasn't bad enuf, bout 30 seconds later my shirt rubbed passed it (I hadn't cleaned it off at this stage) and now I have a big sauce mark on my uniform.....bloody drunks.
A few more things which really pi$$ me off is when they clog the dunny's up with sh*thouse paper, leave all their rubbish outside where they sit and eat while waiting for a taxi (bins are only meters away).....steal the key's and padlocks for the dunny's......and come in, buy heaps of crap, make a big mess trying to eat then I gotta clean up after them.
Awe well, I guess that's why they pay ya pretty good. We lock the toilets at night coz of the vandalism, but we normally let people use them if they ask. Most of the other workers are very strict with who they lend the keys out to, and I'm normally pretty lenient.....the only person I've refused to give them to ended up pi$$ing on one of our fuel bowsers.
Anyone else here work at a servo?![]()

I used to work at a Servo. The rule was the last thing you do on your shift is clean the toilet. So as soon as whoever was finishing before I started was done, I'd lock the toilet and it'd stay that way for my whole shift. If anyone asked to used it, I'd tell em it was broken or badly clogged or something.
Then it was already clean when I was meant to do itNo way did I get paid enough to CLEAN A FRIGGIN TOILET!
I am usually one of the drunks. Except I try and be as nice as possible to the staff.
I really do feel for the ones that work at fast food outlets.
Driving through some of the carparks I see how much they look like a tip. If I actually notice that a particular mess belongs to a particular group I usually stop and tell them to pick it up.
As for inside, I've seen worst things done but I won't say here for fear of making a lot of people puke all over their keyboards.
yeah but you got that shiny badge in your pocket, you can tell people to do that stuff or you'll lighten their wallets.
come on, share the gross stuff.....
I used to work at a servo, but the worst I ever got was a homeless guy. one came in every few days and bought some food (apparently he was filthy stinkin rich, lost his family in a house fire, went loopy and was thrown in a rubber room for a few years, got out, and they controlled his money so he couldn't afford to rent a house, or buy clothes - info from a personal friend) and we had to wash the money he paid with because it stunk out the whole shop if we didn't. was a real nice guy too, knew he stunk and was always apologetic. only ever came in at night when the shop was quiet.
other than that, if someone came in looking like they wanted trouble, I just stood near the panic button, but never used it

I've never had to use the panic button, I've never been in a situation where I've had to. Nearly had a few fights start in the servo when it gets filled up at 4am when the pubs shut, but luckilly they sorted themselves out b4 I got involved.
We get a similar guy come in a few times a week. He lives in a house, but he doesn't have heaps of money. He comes in to cash out his pension, then buys a few little thing like a cigar, can of cat food, and sometimes a chocolate. He's friendly, but he's really hard to understand so 80% of the time ya just go along with wat he's saying.
Well I went to Woolworths b4 work and got another padlock, and kept the dunnies locked all night, telling everyone they were broken. But u see I still gotta empty the bins in them coz the guy b4 me on one of my night shifts gets a bit slack and he doesn't empty them, just locks them up and goes. He also slacks off on a few other things which makes more work for me. I've decided to just put up with it coz I don't wanna whinge to my boss coz the other guy is a nice bloke and he's been there like 6 years.Originally Posted by Cousin Slow Poke
I enjoy working there, and the money is good, so I don't plan on leaving anytime soon (even with all the drunks haha). But I am missing my weekends (which is the only time I work at the moment) so I might see if I can get one weekend off every month or sumfin (swap my 2 shifts with someone else) coz I miss them bad. I've had a few drinks every night this week and now my bro is giving me sh*t calling me an alco haha. I think it's because I don't get to drink with my friends on the weekend, so hopefully if I can get one weekend off every month that will sort out the drinking b4 I do turn into an alco lol.
