    I love the selection and parking is ample but gosh the customer service by the cashiers is terrible. ZERO personality and ZERO interaction. I never get a hello or anything and some workers have an earbud in their ear. It’s rude, but that away and focus on your job. I’m sorry I’m bothering you by coming into your lane.

    I am a frequent customer at Safeway in Damascus. I want to get my groceries for the week per usual. There was one lane open and so were the self checkouts. I asked the gentleman (James) if he was open because I had more than 15 items. He huffed and puffed upset that I asked him. I quickly said if you want I can go to self checkout. Again I only asked cause I had more than 15 items. I understand we all have bad days but that is not the correct way to treat customers. He was very rude and dismissive. It was not late at night. It was between 5-6pm. If this is the way he treats people maybe this isn’t the right job for him.
