I'm very new, so today was my second day on register and fifth day working overall. I already HATE register so much and I gained such a newfound respect for the partners since now I have a tiny bit of experience with it. Today, one of my coworkers (she has another title that gives her some more authority in the store, but I can't remember what it was) actually called me in to go on register while I was in the middle of online training, and oh boy, it went a lot worse than yesterday since my trainer had been there to help me for pretty much the whole time, but today, I had to do a lot of the orders on my own. It was so difficult since I'm still trying to get used to the register and I felt like I messed something up every single time. I actually KNOW I messed up a couple orders, because there were a few times when a couple of my coworkers had to tell me what I did wrong because the customer complained to them (not that I blame them - I really wish I could apologize to anyone whose orders I got a bit wrong). Most people were very nice, of course, but a few got impatient with me very fast, and one person made a passive-aggressive comment that hurt my feelings. I felt especially bad for the customers that had to deal with me when taking in the fact that most of them didn't know I was new and probably thought I was really incompetent and awkward. I really didn't like when people were ordering a bunch of things at once but didn't really slow down so I had to ask them to repeat themselves, or when people ordered drinks with tons of specific customizations. It also sucks that it's usually pretty loud in there since that makes it hard to hear and my voice is naturally pretty soft. I also just have a bit of trouble processing things that people say to me and I have a hard time working at as fast of a speed as a Starbucks would demand, so all-in-all, not a great position for me. Being socially anxious also just makes things that much more difficult, especially because all of my coworkers don't seem to have any problems up there. The coworker who ordered me out there eventually told me to go take my break, and I was so upset with myself since it felt like I wasn't even up there for more than 45 minutes to an hour and she was probably using the break as a way of getting me off of the register. I kind of just stayed in the back room alone and teared up a little because I just felt so bad for letting down customers AND my coworkers, in addition to embarrassing myself a ton. I'm fine with all of the other tasks I've had to do so far, even handing off orders to people, but I hate register so much and I'm already dreading the fact that I'm probably going to have to do it again tomorrow and every day after that for the foreseeable future. I would genuinely prefer having to clean a clogged toilet to going on register. I just felt like ranting a bit - hopefully no one else on here can relate to this. I know it won't be as difficult if I keep on doing it and force myself through it. I'm really sorry to everyone I let down today.
