I start a new job tomorrow, first time in retail (Kohls, a clothing store). Who's got customer horror stories?

If it smells like poop in the changing room, it is.
Ignore it, don't be the first to go in there, let somebody else find it.

>working in a pet store on thanksgiving
>fucking no one here
>pull register duty
>one fat dude and yapper dog come in
>dog takes 3 steps in and proceeds to shit on floor
>itsnotstopping.jpg
>somehow yapper has shit 3x its weight
>dude was dragging it as he walked, it's everywhere
>"sir, we have a cleaning station to your right"
>'wasn't my dog'
>dog tracks shit prints through whole store
>mfw when told "I'll relieve you on register, go mop"

Good luck, the customer base is the bottom of the barrel, coupon hungry type. Use it as a stepping stone and get out as quick as you can.

i need the flexibility for school. freshie in college

Just dont get too comfortable there. I started as a seasonal associate and ended up wasting 3 years there. Couldn't get any kind of promotion in those 3 years.

>waiter
>blonde bitch comes in with bored looking dude
>she's a megabitch, orders a ton of substitutions and special changes
>scarfs down a ton of chips and salsa while waiting
>gets burger, snaps at me

>allergic?
>"...Ma'am, should I call you an ambulance?"
>"No, I didn't eat it yet I just want-"

>chad bf laughs at her

>fucking brits though
>on Sundays it got stupidly busy
>the place only has like 16 tables inside
>no fucking space to move between them
>4 tables right by the kitchen door
>chefs are absolute bros, would find any excuse to go to the kitchen whenever i could
>but the kitchen is small as fuck as well, 3 of them working
>there is only about 2 of us waiting food, 30 people or so ordering and only 3 chefs to make it
>douseetheproblemnow.gif
>they have these heat lamps that keep the food extra hot if people are waiting
>they finally get one table done that has been waiting for about 20 minutes maybe (breakfast)
>bringing plates to the table
>2 parents 3 small kids
>kids are priority because of patience, so I go for the little shit
>I tell the kid and the parents fairly loudly just in case
>"Please be careful, the plates are very hot"
>Like mate im handling one with a double folded towel
>little shit instantly grabs plate out of my hands and just as fast drops it on the table, breaks it, food everywhere
>parents start talking shit about them being too hot, even though i warned them
>manager comes and apologises to them, tells me off in front of them, but afterwards says that I wasn't at fault

I've got more mediocre stories from Britland if anyone wants to read

my mom owned an antique store, was more of a consignment place. lots of people brought their grannies coats and hats and shit in. ma had a closet turned into a fitting room so people could try them on first. being the only guy that worked there, I was the one that got to break up the couples that fucked in there.

there were a disturbingly large amount.

more pls

but like, young or old couples?

Never talk to a female customer in an enclosed space, without a 3rd person (co worker) in the room as a witness. It can save you from a lot of bullshit.

mostly young. girls coming in to try on fake fur coats and blowing or fucking their bfs who got dragged along as an apology i assume

talking from experience?

>standing at cash register
>lady comes up with slab of frozen meat
>price the other stuff first
>she asks if the meat is still good
>wat.png
>we literally put dates on the meat, why ask me this
>"yes ma'm, this expires in 2 days, but if you keep it frozen it might last an extra day or so"
>she says okay and leaves
>you would not fucking believe the next morning
>manager calls to show me an email
>it's the same lady
>for fucks sake she wrote an entire paragraph, like legit there had to be around 200 words there
>she wrote about how I apparently tried to sell her expired meat and even advised to eat it and that she would like a refund if possible
>bitch what
>manager tells me off, I explain how it went down
>she looks at me for a second and says to choose my words a bit more carefully next time

Holy shit guys, I'm from eastern Europe and this kind of stuff wouldn't happen here. Who the fuck knowingly buys meat that expires in 2 days and takes the time to send an e-mail with false info

you are a cuckold aren't you?

Worked in retail briefly (many years ago). Worst, mindless, boring-as-fuckall job on the planet. You’ll find out what I mean. You’ll want out faster than you wanted in. Not even worth going in to work on your first day. Just quit now.

i don't know of any other jobs that will work around my class schedule and shit

Tits or gtfo

boohoo,go fuck your mother.

i was answering the question. i wasn't trying to gain sway on the internet. i don't get anything (cred or otherwise) by doing that so idgaf

The customers will be the least of your problems if you have shoddy management. Customers come and go; you have to see your co-workers every time you walk in. Good luck.

Welcome to Sup Forums if you're a girl you post tits or you

It's that simple

>be me working at dollars, it's like a Macy's
>work in big and tall section
>not really either of those (I'm 6 ft around 170 lbs)
>people are generally nice or embarrassed so I act like a bro cause they were chill
>one day a giant sized muk comes in on his rascal
>literally has the back rest down and us sitting on back rest
>first thing I noticed is a horrible smell
>asks about our shirts
>being bro gotta be honest and say to buy the 5XB (B means Big)
>looks at me weird but goes with it
>asks for fitting room and point him there
>comes back and says he can't fit through the Dope
>seriously.jpeg
>says "I'll just try it on right bere."
>stands up and takes shirt off
>first thing I noticed is he has both nipples pierced
>next the smell gets worse
>has giant fucking rash with, what I think was, puss
>puts on shirt likes it but is too expensive
>takes it off and drops it on the ground
>I grab a bag and pick shirt up like picking up a dog turd
>flip it over and take it to damaged goods
>write "biohazard" on label in big letters
the nipple piercings and smell still haunt me to this day

You should have punched him right in the throat; and when he goes:
>"Wut dufuk iff wong wiff yuu"
you go:
>"Wasn't my fist"

ill accept the obligatory tits or gtfo but eat shit

jfc user do you have more. this is fantastic

The people lurking this thread are waiting for you to post tits.

Everyone who's told you to post tits is waiting for you to post tits.

The only person who thinks you're morally superior in this situation is you.

Now don't forget the timestamp

or gtfo

"everyone"
>samefag

no one really thinks theyre getting tits. your bedtime is coming up you should start brushing your teeth

the fat fucks in clothing stores are the fucking worst. they try on everything, hate all of it, then make it seem like your fault there's only 2 shirts available in sixe 4xl in store

quit now. don't even show up for your first day.

Nothing too that extent but I have two more

>same job
>same department
>hear cry from help from a changing room
>go to investigate
>was a dude I helped a few minutes earlier
>he was butt ass naked and fell to the floor
>he's lying on his stomach so ass is in full view
>he hears me open the door but can't see
> literal line was "hello? Is someone there? I've fallen and I can't get up."
>have to leave
>once I'm far away I laugh for a good 5 mins
>still hear cries of help
>security finally comes and helps him out

we had a lady that wouldn't go to a fitting room to try on clothes. she'd just walk around the store half dressed trying shit on. she wasn't all around unattractive but i didn't enjoy the 40 something peep show

was he mentally retarded or just awk

fucking landwhales

>Oh no multiple people pointing out I'm being a faggot
>Obviously they're samefagging

Just gtfo I barely even care about the tits anymore

lol "barely"

brace for christmas shoppers, its the fucking worst

Other one I have is
>working at a restaurant as a pasta chef
>basically entails me boiling pasta and cooking bread
>it's like subway
>tell me what you want and I put it together
>fat fuck comes up and he has to breath after a few words
>can I get.......three scoops.......of penne
>only allow 2 scoops
>proceeds to get three garlic breads.
>does this like four more times and is out of more breath each time
>hated that fatty

(You) can leave now

Probably awkward but he was fat as fuck

e-a-t_s-h-i-t

Now you're just getting desperate

have fun with your job. i hated bagging people's stuff at the grocery store. i sucked that they put me as a cart pusher. the only thing i hated about that was the weather. the rain and winter time was the worst.

>had a co-worker who would tell on me on the little thing
>in middle school i would tell a girl i smell fish
>bagging see her years later
>she calls me fish boy
>tell her to i knew i smelt fish, your family is in the sea food department, you should buy some new tampons, your pretty friend should buy some candy as she seems sweet.
>co-worker told on me
>boss didn't seem to care since i knew her
>co-worker said the next day how come your not fired
>i could of gown out with a bunch of girls but co-worker would tell on me that i was getting girls numbers

hahaha lol

Lol ur pretty good at telling stories
