i work in a fabric store (joanns if you have heard of it). You would THINK that the people in there are nicer and simple. Most of our clientle is older. Boy is it deceiving. Better than working at macys.
We (my co workers and I collectively) have had candy thrown at us, bolts of fabric throw at us, been yelled at over dumb things, so on so on.
Our lil shop lifters are the worse. we had this one lady come in with a backpack and start looking at one of our decorative collections. She asked the supervisor to get her some invisible thread. When the supervisor came back to the lady, she had about half the collection in her backpack... open. The supervisor told her to leave the store and to never come back. the lady the proceeded to ask "well can i get my invisible thread?" How would you answer that? And to top it all off, she came back and wanted to buy stuff about 2 weeks later. So one of our associates had to babysit her throughout her shopping.
Another lady came into the store with 2 duffle bags supposedly. She filled them up with stuff (really random stuff). EVERYONE in the store was watching her waiting for her to make a break for it. But after she filled the bags, she proceeded to stay in the store for another half hour and "look around." After she noticed that every associate had their eyes on her, she dropped the bags and left.
Other stories are people complaining that our customer service sucks because we don't take certain items back without receipts. Then they come back and say "well at MY job, i show EXCELLENT customer service."
stop complaining and follow policy then!
