During busy shifts, prioritization is key. I focus on immediate customer needs first, such as completing transactions and assisting with queries. I also communicate with my team about stock levels and ensure that we work together to keep the pace without compromising service quality.

If I encountered a pricing discrepancy, I would first verify the price with the product information in the system. If there’s a mismatch, I would consult with a manager to correct the situation and inform the customer politely of the updated price to maintain transparency.
