Working with the public totally sucks!

If it’s the regulars then yeah that would be veeeery annoying. Yeah when I worked as a hostess part of my duties was to get the drinks, that’s why I thought they might be used to it.

Retail is hell in the afterlife, I swear it is. Maybe we’re all actually dead?

Sartre did say “Hell is other people.”

Now, I have been in an area that I don’t normally work in. And I do tell the customer I don’t know, but I do try to help them as best I can. It doesn’t matter though, when I tell a customer I don’t know, and I have to look for a particular item, they get made at me like I told them to go to hell. I can’t learn the department because there isn’t time. If i’m in another department, it’s because we are short handed at the moment, or I am covering for lunch. So no, I don’t know which shoes are running shoes or walking shoes. NO I don’t have any idea if a size 34 is a large. No ma’am I can’t help you fit a bra, you mean to tell me you don’t know after all this time?

So it’s not always that we don’t know the area out of spite or something. For me personally it’s because I really don’t know. Only go there when needed.:dubious:

Spider, what’s the deal with everyone being so snotty about you working adult retail. I mean, it’s just sex toys and porn, for God’s sake. Everybody’s got that at home, right?

Well, I came into the “clique”. I was an outsider and I came from porn… EWWWWWW porn!!

Silly bookstore clerks, they think their shit doesn’t stink!
