Working in retail 12 years I've seen some shit, ranging from me being threatened to have my throat slit to teenagers threatening to spit on a coworker. Funnily, both occurred within the last two weeks.
I'll try and think of some high lights, 99% of our stock was behind the counter except some pop funko tat and dummy boxes, a known thief tried to trade in two items, at the time unknown to me, that he had stolen the day before from us, stuff like pop funkos etc we didn't buy back and he lost it when he couldn't trade in his stolen items.
Had a guy punching the counter demanding a refund on his ps3 that when tested, wasn't faulty, I refused he complained and got a refund
One guy got so mad when I told him gears of war wasn't available on PS4, he shouted I was wrong, he bought it off eBay and I didn't know anything
Countless times I've had to explain Mario is not on PlayStation. Countless times, why's Mario not on PlayStation? That's stupid.
People paying in pennies, just emptied a tub on the counter with no idea of the value and no offering of helping counting
Told a customer they couldn't drink alcohol in store, he was visibly drunk, he insisted it was water inside a beer bottle
A back and forth convo with me and a customer:
The game your buying is download only, is that ok?
Yeah but how long does it take?
It depends on the speed of your internet
Well on average?
There is no average to suggest, I don't know your internet speed is, every internet speed is different, you may have fibre optic, you may have broadband.
So your refusing to answer my question?
No I'm really not there is no answer , it's like asking how long is a piece of string
Fine, I'll go somewhere else
I considered abs drafted a comedy retail tv show based on the bullshit we have to suffer. It's like writing about it is a coping mechanism. Fuck my life.
