9 out of 10 millennials wouldn't know what to do in this situation

>You are hired part-time at a small electronics shop. Your job is to come in at 9PM, make sure all the employees leave, restock the shelves with merchandise, and close the store at 12AM, then go home.
>As 12AM rolls around, you finish stocking the shelves, turn out the lights, leave the store, and begin locking up.
>BUT...
>Something is wrong with the lock. It's definitely broken and you can't close the store.
>There's also something wrong with the door and it doesn't close completely.
>You can't call your boss because he's on a 15 flight to Japan.
>And you can't contact the other employees because there's only 2 of them, it's a Friday night, they're up in the club.
>You also don't have enough money on you to pay a locksmith.
>And you can't stay in the store overnight because it's Friday and the store doesn't open until Monday.

9 out of 10 millennials wouldn't know what to do in this situation.

That's why most millennials are still living at home and why they don't own a house despite the fact that their parents bought their first homes by the time they were 22. Baby Boomers know how to get things done and millennials don't.

not give a fuck

Go home. Call the boss the next day and tell him you quit.

Chain it up with a lock and text the next person coming In on Monday that u got the key

>Baby Boomers failed to raise Millennials correctly
>Millennials don't have skills that are on par with Boomers
really gets the 'ol synapses firing

Boomers will come in and say "B-BUT THEN U COULD CUT THE CHAIN OR THE LOCK WITH SOME BOLT CUTTERS C'MON SONNY BOY HEH HEH"

what are you on about man?

A. I wouldn't be paying a locksmith out of pocket 1 way or the other.

B. I don't have to know what to do in this situation. It's not my store. I'm a part time employee, that works 3 hours a night. Not my problem. I closed the door and locked it. I wasn't even aware of the fact it was broken.

lol wtf.. how is this the employees problem?

Call the police tell them to keep an eye on your store?

Pay locksmith, keep receipt and make a note, tell boss to reimburse you after his flight

Literally did this multiple times while working retail

Check the lock and see if I can fix it. If not, call a locksmith and explain the situation. The locksmith can send a bill to the store. Call my boss the next day. Where is the problem?

The store would be locked as soon as the shop closes for business to the public. What kind of fucking two-bit operation is the boss running?

Your incredibly specific scenario is retarded.

Figure out how to fix it myself. If push comes to shove, force it close.

Like this user said, it's not my problem so I would call the police, say the place is unlocked and the door is broken.
Boss's problem, not mine.

Eh, just a get a padlock and a chain.

This, I'd also raise hell about the fucked up lock and door, also you'd think they'd do some preventative maintenance every now and then but thats just the mechanic in me talking

god this type of dancing is so fucking annoying

Depends on the location. Small town? Call sheriff or police and explain to them the situation and ask if they could spare a single car to hang out over night while you get in contact with your boss in the morning.
Cops say no? Chain the door up with a cheap padlock and call boss in the morning.

Yeah I'm not really sure the point of OPs thread, most retail establishments have a locksmith's info taped somewhere in the employee room just for this specific scenario

"HURR U CANT CALL DA LOCKSMITH CAUSE U HAB NO MONEY"

Then he writes the bill to your boss, gee that was hard

The police wouldnt give a shit. They inspect open shop doors and call the owners, not babysit them.

This, have the locksmith fill out an invoice. A 24 hour emergency locksmith can charge enough to make it worth his time collecting on the invoice.

This is retarded.

Why are you restocking the shelves on Friday night when the store doesn't reopen until Monday morning? LOL It's like a Saturday or Sunday job.

>Work this hypothetical job
>Apparently don't have money to pay a locksmith

mental gymnastics

I think open is trying to say it's a shot job or your in a financial destitute situation and have no lock and chain.

And presumably you cannot park your car against the door either.

Also nailing the door shut is prolly out of the question.

Door from hell.

Locksmiths don't take credit either.

>pretend not to notice that it doesn't lock.
>Then after I leave I'll tell my friends that it's unlocked and to go raid it but make it look like they broke in
>???
>profit

This. Keep calling 24/7 locksmiths until this works.

so is there a correct boomer certified answer or..?

>walk out with the door wide open

>packs of niggers loot up and trash the place

>have lolz

i'd take the screwdriver open the lock and put some grease in that fucker, if it's flap's fault that would do

burn down the shop and claim insurance money

Build a large electromagnet to hold the door shut and then solder the door in place.
Let the person who opens the store deal with it.

You dont pay the locksmith, let the invoice be sent to the store.

Get the locksmith to invoice the company.

>Realize the catch is sticking out of the lock.
>Twist lock nob to close catch
>Exit, shut the door, lock with key.

t. Former Radio Shack employee.

This

>Pay locksmith

You can't. Millennials don't have $250 on them. Locksmith wants cash only!

Reinforce the door.
Make a few booby traps in case someone gets in.

Yes. I would have said this.

But still think this is a trick question as re-stocking on a midnight on Friday is retarded if you don't reopen until Monday. Which obviously leaves the whole of Saturday and Sunday free.

"You don't have the money to pay a locksmith."

What am I? A fucking nigger? Come on, every decent white man has a bit of emergency money.

This ... as many have stated is correct, but I think op is saying the locksmith has a hate-on and does not take credit.

only boomers are dumb enough to think locks do anything. even monkeys are intelligent enough to use a simple tool like a hammer or a brick to break into a store. there are literally no thieves that walk around pushing on the doors of every closed store at night just hoping one of them isn't locked.

I was a manager at Kroger for a few years. Closed a lot of nights. Old store and the lock didn't work worth a shit and nobody wanted to replace it.

>turn the auto door off
>put a few buggies infront of door
>use some plastic bags to tie door to candy machine/whatever

All buildings will have multiple doors. You figure something out and do it.

This too. Fuck going into a place for three hours a night to do shit other employees can do.

>Grab my toolbox from my car
>fix lock

I always have my tools near me

exit through the back door and lock it

nigga I have 50k in the bank

>>There's also something wrong with the door and it doesn't close completely.

Everyone in this read going on about the lock while forgetting about the door.

this is seriously what boomers would have done. they're shit people that are lying about how shit they always were. Remember, these are the previous version of millennials, shit begets shit.

>Why are you restocking the shelves on Friday night
>It's like a Saturday or Sunday job
>the store doesn't reopen until Monday morning?

Well, you could think about it but I guess that's somewhat difficult.

Where can I find this porn

There's a cop in my town who makes sure all the doors to shops are locked at night cause owners used to leave them unlocked anyways and shit would get stolen.

>You also don't have enough money on you to pay a locksmith.

Bullshit.

That girl is amazing.

Trophy wife material.

id call the cops and tell them i think someone (niggz) tried to break in while I was restocking in the back

cops presence would help and they usually have locksmith tools and expertise on the force

I would call a lock smith and pay him by letting him fuck my virgin hot boy pucci.

I would then make my boss pay me back buy fucking my hot boy pucci

The shop might have an insurance, I would call them.

Obviously the answer is that you're in an electrical retailer. Grab a 120/15 male chord end, however much 12/2 can tire you need to reach from the door to an outlet. Mount a 4x4 box just behind the ddooon the floor and tie your neutral to it. Self tap a screw to the door with a crimp under the screw and tie in your hot to it. Fuck the ground who cares. Plug in the cable to the outlet, leave out another door and hang out side to watch a spark show if anyone tries to open the door.

We'll I'm the exception to that logic. Tough shit

this is the only correct option

Worked for a locksmith when I was in college. Money is key UNLESS it's an established client. Too many deadbeats not wanting to pay and then having to go to small claims.

Also, we have these things called retainers. I do computer work and whenever I get a new small business client, I charge a retainer. This covers the first time they call me in for something in the event I can't get paid right then.

Now if someone calls me off the street wanting an emergency job, I'm going to be a fucking kike because I'm the only motherfucker in a ~30 mile radius that does 24/7 calls.

I would assemble a ragtag team of thieves and delinquent to raid the store and sell all the shit for mad dosh. Check mate weeb boss.

Here's your (you).

>hue hue u can't call 2 oder employees coz theyre bumming eash other in da club coz its fridey night

I couldn't care what they were doing, that wouldn't prevent me from calling.

>hue hue no money for locksmith

Except I'm not the type of dumbass like a baby boomer who spends all their money. I always have money in case of an emergency.

Also I'm the type who could probably fix that lock myself unlike a useless baby boomer who take a year just to learn to send an email in those computer courses that are so popular with their types.

So smart, they're always falling for those Nigerian fucking email scams. Tut tut.

Your faggotry game is shit OP. Kill yourself.

explain

Hey op get that cock out of your mouth and answer this user.

Xer here: find a locksmith who bills businesses rather than expecting cash at the time of service.
Smoke out with the locksmith when he's done.

It's Alix Bromley. ("Epic Boobs" meme.) She just did some modeling. I don't think nudes exist.

>call locksmith
>explain situation
>ask if they will accept delayed payment
It's a business, it won't run away.

>up in the club

Whoa, oh yeah, thanks for sauce user.

You fucking retard, the locksmith sends an invoice on Monday for the work performed to be charged out of the company's account.

t. Millenial

duct tape the door shut. no problem.

It's not your fucking store

If the owner doesn't leave enough petty cash in the store to pay a fucking locksmith it's his fault.

You go home.

Call around until you find a locksmith willing to do the work now as long as they get paid later or at least find one that will accept a partial payment. As long as they know you work for a marginally successful business, they'll do either of those.

Just go home. How is this difficult?

this
op is a fucking faggot

But I can lol

What if the locksmith says the door is busted and he will need to order a new one in, and there's absolutely no way to close it?

Sounds like the idiot turned the key before he tried to shut the door and the bolt is already thrown. Turn key other direction to retract the bolt, close door, and relock.

If that's not it, there's always petty cash in the drawer. Pay locksmith from that, get receipt and show boss when he returns. Alternatively, use personal credit card to pay locksmith and get reimbursed by boss.

If the shop is leased from a managing company, call them. If this company is part of a larger corporation, call the corporate office/district manager/whatever.

There are so many options.

>Put a sign on the door that says "Free shit" and leave.

Problem solved.

You don't need cash on hand, they'll happily accompany you to the nearest bank. Or don't get a shitty locksmith only taking cash in the first place.

But the locksmith only takes cash. In Pesos. Now what do you do!?

Set up claymores and trip flares. Post up with my AR on top of building across the street with a case of malt liquor and shitpost on my phone till morning.

/Thread. when you get btfo'd this hard by a leaf, you know the thread is worthless. Sage.

>9 out of 10 millennials wouldn't know what to do in this situation.

find a local locksmith who will bill the shop, find regional manager or owner or owner's family authorized to make a call and have them come down or agree to pay you fuck lots extra for sleeping there

>Now if someone calls me off the street wanting an emergency job, I'm going to be a fucking kike
So 150, pizza and beer?

id just leave it open because I live in a white country and all stores have their own cameras, dumb fucking american

tell the locksmith to guard the store and bill the owner for his time

and go home.

Bloody hell, haven't seen that for like 8 years

Go to the ATM 10 yards away from my kiosk?

>call locksmith
>tell him to bill the store
>???
>profit

9 out of 10 statistics are made up on the spot and false.

You call the locksmith anyway and tell him to come by Monday to get paid. What sort of nigger are you?

Pay a locksmith from the cash register, keep receipt.
Notify boss as soon as possible. How fucking hard can that be.

Your ATM pays out in Mexican Pesos?

oh, i was thinking fuck it, leave. guess thats the wrong answer.

Leave come back in a ski mask beat the shit out of the door and rob the place

>9 out of 10 millennials wouldn't know what to do in this situation.

Source? Googling this phrase just returns this thread.

Well if that happens imma just climb out the mufuckin ass window and if that shit dont got any windows imma use the fireplace homie watchu mean Cx

Stay all weekend and get paid to babysit the door.

Why not just use a card and keep the receipt? Even if you don't have the cash, the bank still pays the locksmith, and now you owe your bank some cash for the overdraft. Or the CC or Debit gets declined and you know right away they don't have cash. These days with Square you don't need a full card reading machine anyway.

someone (You) my post plox

I have to lock up a beer store every night and I've dealt with this shit before. I just set the alarm, double check everything is away in the safe, then text my boss. He deals with it in the morning. But we're open 7 days a week.

Grab money out of the register and pay the locksmith.
>inb4 there's no money in the register tho :^) :^) :^)

Take money for one of the cash registers to pay the locksmith, keep the receipt and explain what happened to the boss after.

remember when I used to work nights and got paid penalty wages, remember I don't have alarm codes anymore and just leave
