So a customer comes in with a load of 5ps and asked me to change them for her (there's about three pounds worth so about 60 of them) and I'm like "Yeah sure" it's late, we don't need the change that time of night anyway.
My colleague comes along later and takes that till off and says "For Gods sake, who put a load of 5ps in here?"
So I'm like "Uhhh me, you know, the one who has been on the till this evening."
She says "Yeah well I have to go count that all now, if you do it again, I'll slit your throat."
Is this some kind of joke I'm not in on? Because as far as I'm concerned there's a place for people who say stuff like that, and it's called a mental institution, not working in retail where you are working with members of the public.
It's the way she said it where it's like... You could tell she didn't really mean it but at the same time it had an element of "Oh God that slipped out, I didn't mean to say it." to it.
There's me going out of my way to make life better for other people around me and in return I get death threats? Lol.
So what do you think, beautiful people? Report it and get her fired (I doubt anyone else would take her on) or leave it and assume it was a joke (which it's still a very weird thing to joke about).
Because I don't think people like that should have jobs, for their own safety and for everyone else's.
But at the same time I'd feel a bit bad if I reported it and she got sacked.
I've been on fairly good terms with her up until now as well.
So maybe it wasn't to be taken seriously...
But there's a million better ways to imply a joke than making a false death threat.. Isn't there?!
The things that happen when you work in retail.
.. My god I can't wait to be fully self employed.

Got a letter from my bank earlier about low interest loans and I can take one out to pay for a car and our wedding next year and my repayments each month would be so doable ^^ Me and my partner are actually going to be writing up the guest list tomorrow aswell as calling a few places for the after party

IDK. You're right about the Adofo similarity though, at least with the whole "kind-of-a-joke-but-at-the-same-time-not-really". I'd just keep a close eye on her and maybe talk to her about it. If you feel like she genuinely apologizes or explains herself then no big deal but if it continues or gets worse then talking to a manager might be the proactive thing to do.
