Just got back from a retail shift!
Never before have I hated the holidays so much. Nah, I'm just kidding.
There's this one kid who keeps coming in and apparently has a serious problem with me because I laughed at one of his dad's jokes during a transaction months ago. Whenever he comes in, he will ask for me, and if I'm working when he's there the first words out of his mouth when he sees me are, "My dad is not funny. You shouldn't laugh at his jokes." And then he goes on to tell me that I'm not as cool as one of my coworkers.
When I'm not there he tells my coworkers to remind me that his dad is not funny the next time they see me.
Anyway - ever since I started working,
oh man I have not been able to leave a shelf disorganized. Be it a bookshelf, a video game shelf,
any kind of shelf - if things are out of order or just lying around, I can't leave them alone. It's gotten to the point that I'll come in to check my schedule for the next week and will end up staying for an hour fixing the walls until my boss goes, "Callais, you're off the clock, stop doing that."
I've also become a lot more conscious of whether or not I'm returning things to the right place when I decide not to buy them.
And can I just say, it's super embarrassing to say "Thank you and have a nice day!" when
I'm a customer in another store?
