ok so..... i am working in the lab on an order, i am the only optician on the clock. a customer comes into the shop, i say "i will be with you in 15 seconds please wait right there for me." the customer then walks right into the lab and up to me. i turned around and told him he could not be in the lab, and he needed to wait outside like i had asked. he then started asking all these stupid questions instead of exiting the lab. i then told him that we have lots of protected private information in this area and he needed to leave the lab. i walked up to him and through proximity edged him out of the lab. this was last friday. TODAY this awesome individual comes in and complains about my telling him to get out of my lab, telling my Dr. that i "verbally assaulted" him by getting up and walking him out of the lab after i told him he needed to leave. does anyone have my back or am i just an *******? i mean when you go to a restaurant you dont order a steak then let yourself into the kitchen to talk with the cook, you dont go to a theatre and welcome yourself to the projectionists booth.
am i an *******?
is having this guy in the lab a violation?
did i "assault" this P.I.T.A?
is this so commonplace i should start looking for a new line of work?
thoughts, and input welcome.
p.s. it drives me NUTS how people think they are welcome to every part of this building and they claim they are just being "friendly" by walking into restricted access areas to just chat. when i was deployed even the ENEMY knew not to just walk up to our gates and strike up a convo......... STAY OUT OF MY LAB!!!!!!!!!!
