Retail retards

If you go shopping please don't be stupid and don't be rude to the cashiers.
I had a shit load of crap ass customers yesterday.

I had a customer that wanted an extra discount because an item rang up differently from the price on the shelf. Because we were wasting her time. Well first off honey it's not law that we even give you the shelf price. What is in the computer is what is correct if you don't like it get the hell out. She said Wal-Mart would give her an extra discount. Oh sorry we aren't Wal-Mart and make so much money than an extra couple of dollars off won't make a difference. And second liar. Wal-Mart isn't gonna take the time to go check it unless you make a big stink.

I had another customer walk in and go to the customer service counter where no one is standing and no lights are lit up while there are three registers open and people in line at all of them. We are all trying to check out as fast as we can because about half the people in the store all decided to check out at the same time. I got done with one customer and turned and asked her if she had a return and if so she could stand in any three of the open lines. She said "well I wish someone had told me bfore I waited here for 10 minutes." *whap* You bitch you know it wouldn't have hurt you to turn around (Her back was to us all as she stared at the empty customer service counter) and quickly say "where do I go for a return" none of us would have minded.

I was ringing almost constantly for the first two hours I was on shift and the above two customers were just the ones that stand out the most in that time. I decided I needed a break. Well my manager says don't log out that way they can call you up if it gets really crowded. Alright but I'm gonna run over to Wendy's for some food. No worries she's alright with that. I go over and of course there are 5 people in front of me. The one time I really need to hurry. I call my roomie and vent so I'm using my time waiting well *smile*. I patiently wait in line as there isn't really anything I can do to hurry things along. Then when there is one guy in front of me a second register opens up. Well I point him over there because he hadn't noticed and then I step up. Then the little punk behind me steps over behind the guy that was in front of me now at the other register. *boggle* excuse me? It doesn't work that way. There is still just one line and I should be next. I get off my phone so I can say something but not fast enough and the little punk gets to go next. The guy behind me at least was nice enough to say (not in these words) that the kid was a punk ass. But the best part. The part to just top off my Wendy's expirence last nite...as I was walking out of Wendy's to go back to Staples (they are in the same parking lot) the little punk was walking into the Staples parking lot and sat in the bed of the truck while (I assume) his parents are shopping....he was the child of a fucking Staples custoemer!!! Of course that fits so well. grrrr...

That wasn't the end of my nite but this is a really long post already so I'll leave it at that. It does sum up most of my nite rather well.

Although I must say this...9:15 we are just about gone. One of my coworkers was outside putting the chair he had just assembled into a customers car and a woman walked up to the half open doors (because my co-worker was outside) we are all about to cry because we think she is going to come in. But then!!! SHE DOESN'T!!!!!! She read the time on the doors and saw that we were closed and left! *boggle* OMG we couldn't believe it. It was amazing.

Ok now I'm really gonna end this post now.

Tom & Katie

I figured it out, with my sweetie's help, Katie Holmes is with Tom Cruise because she is gonna marry him, adopt a couple of kids, have a stifled movie career, then get divorced after 10 years so she can get a career like Nicole Kidmans. It's the only reasonable explination. What do ya'll think?
