Village Pantry

I’ve been going here for years and some of the gas attendants have became pretty good acquaintances. I like a lot of the night ones; however, there are some of the night staff that seriously need to learn some customer service.
This guy was in front of me the other night and he was struggling to pay for his cigarettes and one of the women working (who is newer) was working. I just politely asked if I could buy his cigarettes to help him out and that I needed to be somewhere. She flipped out saying that she can go as slow as she wants, threatened to say that she could call the cops, that she would lose her job and made some poor attempt at blackmailing me. Then I tried to change the subject to something more positive and apologized then she kept blabbing on and then I lost my cool and told her she needed to chill the hell out. I was severely disappointed. All I was trying to do was help a guy out.
However, the other gas attendants such as Kelsey and Brittany are amazing people! They have funny jokes, they like to laugh, have conversation and make the VP experience all around a pleasant place to be.
It sucks that the one gas attendant however (I won’t mention her name) really knocked the rating down for me, because in the end, customer service is what matters. It’s my last few weeks living in Muncie and it’s a shame that I’m leaving with a bad taste in my mouth, because of her.

What can I say? It’s a convenience store. The most convenient to Ball State University campus. They sell 40s of Red Stripe. There’s your motivation.
