Hah, let me know when you're working 40 hours a week, in retail, and going through a divorce. Then you'll know what some of us go through.
I got to throw someone out of Best Buy today for excessive use of the word "faggot" especially when she started calling me one. It was beautiful when me and a security guard physically grabbed her arms and escorted her out of the building. Stupid whore.
I like throwing people out and telling people off. They make my days bearable.

Its fun when you have the power to kick people out 
Retail = fun.
I have a four day weekend away from Walmart on the weekend before Christmas. I heart my job.

No, retail isn't fun. Work at Best Buy. I am already applying to other places because I hate Best Buy so fucking much now. I can't stand the people that come in there, make no effort to find anything, and expect me to find each and every DVD on their Christmas lists while trying to help every other person in the store. I want to quit so badly.

Working at Canadian Tire sucks bad enough when customers can't read the fucking signs.

Customers are always stupid, there's not getting around it.

my work christmas party sucked so much. i hated my store so much before, now i hate it a million times more. it wasn't really a christmas party. it was more like a birthday party for the manager and his friends. and he used the money the company gave him for the christmas party to throw himself a birthday party and buy food and booze for his friends.
and what i am mostly pissed off about is that we are getting no christmas bonus this year. i have been with the company for over 2 and a half years and each year we have gotten a small gift and a christmas bonus. this year, all we got were stupid carabiner watches that are not worth more than $1. and to make matters even worse, my god damn fucking watch doesn't even fucking work. grrrrrrrr. i am writing a really pissed off email to head office. they can't treat their employees like this. they expect us to be all happy and cheerful to customers. how the hell are we supposed to be happy when we are getting treated like shit?

Lady: <snaps fingers> Excuse me blue shirt boy, is this on sale?
Me: Ma'am, you're being rude.
Lady: I axed you a question!
Me: Look at the sign you're standing next to ma'am.
Lady: I'm going to your manager!
Me: And he'll escort you out of the store ma'am, so either buy your stuff or leave, we don't need your business.
Lady: <mumbles something>
Two minutes later, I had our security escort her out of the store. I abuse my power and the fact my boss likes me. If he didn't, oh God, I'd be so fired.

stupid customers...they just make you want to laugh..and then beat them senseless
the best ones were when i worked at the IMAX theatre
Customer: where's the screen at
Me: um, it's right in front of you .... (:wtf:)
Customer: are these glasses.... x-rated???????? (*giggles like a gross old man*)
Me: no. (
:neutral)
Customer: how much is a large popcorn??
Me: *reads sign* 3.00 (:neutral:)
Customer: Why do my kids have different colored 3d glasses than I do?!!?!?!?!
Me: It's because they are all different sizes, maam.
i even had to tell the people not to chew on the glasses.
