ONE supermarket worker has revealed that customers are constantly reporting staff to mangers for the most trivial things.
While on the job, Holly Laing says that managers have the staff's back, but customers are constantly trying to snitch on workers.
Taking to her TikTok account, the woman reenacted a situation where a customer reported a staff member to the manager.
Posting under the domain @holly_laing she said a customer went up and told the manager: "Are you the manager? one of your employees over there is just on her phone, she said her name is Holly."
The manager responded saying: "Ah OK, That will be because she's finished, so that's why she's on her phone."
The customer continued to stick her nose in, trying to get the supermarket worker in trouble.

"Well it's a bit unprofessional don't you think?" said the customer, to which the manager replied: "She is actually allowed on her phone because she is not clocked in, she's just shopping.
The customer then started trying to report the customer for "looking at her wrong."
"Well how was I supposed to know she was not clocked in?" said the customer, to which the manager responded: "I assumed she would have told you she's finished her shift?"
"Well…I don't like the way she looked at me. It was very rude" added the customer to which the manager responded "OK is that everything?"
