Retail Life

10+ years in retail. 9 years as management. From Mom & Pop to Big Box, I have seen it all... And I mean all... #CustomerService #retaillife

some kid called me a cunt and said I should respect him cus of where I work yesterday, just because of where I work doesn’t define the fact everyone deserves respect no matter who you are or your job you fucking tea spoon

Pharm tech calls us 5 mins later and asks if we really sent DC to get condoms to protect from lightning.
SM says she sent him to get condoms to protect from breeding just in case the lightning doesn't kill him. As SM says this, DC walks by n thanks us for help. Laughter ensues!

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

#dearcustomer walks up to me and SM and asks if we carry "Lightning Guards". I look at DC confused.
DC says he is going to the beach and doesn't want to get struck by lightning during storms. DC says they are made of rubber and you wear them on your head and feet. #WTF

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

Without missing a beat, SM tells DC that what he needs are "Creation Guards" and he can find them in in the pharmacy section. SM says we only have them in latex but they will work too.
DC, knods says thanks and walks to the pharmacy section.
Stare in disbelief. Are you that dumb?

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

@Awmanthisgirl They looked shocked. Then tugged on door again and walked away

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

#DearCustomer walks up to pitch black store, tugs on locked doors, looks in windows and tugs on door again.
I am on phone with significant other trying to find out where said person is.
DC sees me standing against wall in uniform, tugs on doors again and then asks if we are open.

#dearcustomer, I have no obligation to tell you anything. If your here today ready to buy and the item goes on sales tomorrow. That's your problem. Not mine.

#tmw #dearcustomer walks out of the bathroom 35 minutes after you close and you are standing at the service counter with your trainee explaining that a cashier needs to check the bathrooms before we lock the doors. Well... #goteam #youfailed #retailproblems

My morning starts with coming in early to finish cleaning the store because we had a no call/no show, and now cleaning our front door because someone puked on it... Just another normal day... #retailproblems #retaillife

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

#dearcustomer just because the #RoyalWedding is this Saturday, that does not mean we will suddenly carry British products. And you won't find anything you need with our #MemorialDay items! #retailproblems #notthatspecial

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

No, #dearcustomer. I will not open the store an hour early just so YOU can get an Aux Cable! Go ahead and be mad at me for doing my job! #retailproblems

[Customer Service @KrustyCusty]

IDEA TIME!

#DearCustomer is not allowed in a store unless they:

- know what they want
- have done their own research on the item
- only allowed to ask 3 questions about the item
- will be in and out in 10 min
- READY TO BUY

Helping a sister store with a remodel. While I survived the first day, my shoe didn't... #retailproblems #remodeling

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

#dearcustomer you waste more energy looking for the wrong place to put an item than you do putting back in the correct place? No? You look like a dog looking for the best place to crap when you are looking for the best wrong spot. Especially when it is next to you #retailproblems

@cornershopspy I had a woman pull money from the bottom of her sock and try to pay me... It smelled so bad, I almost lost my lunch.

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

@SWilliamBrown33 Does one wipe themselves on the hood after shitting on the car or just shit and run?

[Dear Customer @SWilliamBrown33]

Me:God damn I’m scheduled 3 Saturdays in row. I’m going to have to fix that manager.
Coworker:I’m going to shit on the hood of his car while he’s fucking in it!
Me:That would send a message.

[Dear Customer @SWilliamBrown33]

Mondays in retail. When the Home Office blames the stores for low sales.
#retaillife

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

@TheMeltingPat Yes... And might have some remnants of a certain time of the month... I gag thinking about it

[Retail Life @RetailLifeBlg]

No, #dearcustomer! You CAN'T RETURN your open box of condoms that includes the one you used! I don't know how else to explain that to you!
