A Nigerian woman, Mercy Joseph has taken to social media platform TikTok to share a video of her sales girl intentionally chasing away customers from her shop. The video shows a customer arriving at the shop to buy some attachments but getting confused about which one to buy. Instead of assisting the customer, the sales girl acted adamantly, spoke rudely to the customer, and continued operating her phone.
Furious about her employee's behavior, Mercy captioned the video on TikTok, saying, "Look at how my sales girl just chases customers away when I'm not around. I didn't know this girl is like this."
Several users commented on the video, with @XTARAY THERAPY jokingly saying, "I need to see her make I do deliverance for her." @Patience Akpan88 commented, "Madam, this one na your Madam," while @user160735415281 advised Mercy to let the sales girl go before she takes her to the next level.
@cassycool shared her own experience with sales girls and their phones, saying, "Seriously, this is how most of them behave, especially when they are pressing their phone. Me I dey seize phone." Similarly, @kennethkalu370 advised Mercy to send the sales girl home immediately and do misery shopping with her future sales girl until she finds a more befitting one.
Another user, @khalessi707, pointed out the double standard of how sales girls behave with male customers versus female customers, saying, "That's how they behave, but if it's a guy, you will see them forming smiles and good girl."
The video serves as a reminder to employers to be mindful of the behavior of their employees and to address any negative behavior promptly to maintain a positive work environment and customer experience.
