So here I go.....

I will be sure to let everyone know as soon as I have something firm! I clearly have more free time to meet with people now!

Oh and still off topic. Saturday was my last day at work. I had less than an hour and a half left in my shift. All of a sudden I hear this crashing noise in my store. A display has fallen off a shelf and hit a customer in the head! I don't mean knick her or graze her, it plunked her square in the middle of her head!!! The amount of paperwork and phone calls we have to make when a customer gets injuried is obscene (necesary, but still obscene). So even though I no longer work for this company they may still need me over the next couple weeks in case this woman has serious injuries (she refused medical treatment that night) or sues. All i want to do is get away from all the crap at this place. Now I still need to be available for a possible lawsuit! Only me!

Oh and to answer the question what to do with olives? We will grow them for our martinis!!!

Oh my goodness Ecupidelta! I hope that customer is fine.

When I worked at Target several years ago, a customer had a box hit her baby slightly. The baby cried- no harm done. But then the baby was crying at home- and she called us blaming the box hitting him for it. But I just filled out some form- and after that day we heard nothing else about this.

I've got a good one!

When I worked in the Wal*Mart snack bar during college, a little girl sat down at a booth, but she picked the handicapped spot, so there wasn't actually a seat--just a table. Know what I mean? Anyway, she plopped on the ground, rubbed her little bottom, and that was that. Well, later that night, the girl complained that she was sore, so her mom took her to the ER. The girl's tailbone was bruised (makes sense), and the mom threatened to sue Wal*Mart!! We had to fill out a ton of paperwork, and our manager had to give her testimony (in the store, not court). I don't know what came of it, but for goodness sake, the handicapped spot was clearly marked. How could Wal*Mart be responsible for a little child trying to sit where there isn't a seat?!

HOW do you try to sit where there isn't a seat?

Oh I'll just put my butt down without paying attention to where it's going...

Well, I think you finally have your answer about how people pee on the walls at the movie theatre.

[MJo19]

Pee on the walls?!?! I used to be an assistant managerat one of the theatres (including 2 of the drive ins) and we never had anyone pee on the walls. We DID however have someone poop (yes, poop) right outside the projection booth at one of the drive-ins. No way was I cleaning that up. Anywho..haha..ecupidelta, any concrete news? I need something happy..I'm all alone as the rest of my family left for vacation in Virginia while I get to cat sit and dog sit for someother people..boo hiss

Thanks for reminding me!

I think all of us have had a job where we get ot see the glory of the public on full display!!! It makes you wonder if people live in barns or something.....
Anywho, I do hope the woman is ok. Companies do have to be hypervigilant nowdays though. In all my years in retail I have found that people do in fact pee on walls and just about everywhere else they can. We tried to get a shoplifter one time who was in the fitting room popping off the sensor tags. My manager knocked on the door to ask the guy how things were fitting and did her need any help She told him she would wait right by the door should he need anything... well once he realized he wasn't getting out with the clothes rather than leave them and just walk away he opted to pee all over them and the carpet in our fitting room Now that's foul! I'm pretty sure we have all lived in a dorm as well, I have some stories that could just turn your stomach from what I saw as an RA...

And no concrete news...... but that's ok
