*singing*
With the bitches and asshats and CBF ladies and buttheads galore! It's the most craptacular time...of the year!!!!!!
Thank you, AFpheonix. You inspired me to pen this little ditty:
Customers Suck
(sung to the tune of "Jingle Bell Rock")
Customers, customers, customer suck.
Customers cry and customers lie.
Dreaming and scheming ways to not pay
And lying with every stupid word that they say.
Customers, customers, customers suck.
Customers rob and they’ll “have your job,”
Shouting and pouting, going on a tear…
Question them don’t you dare!
What a bad time, it’s a sad time
To do work in retail.
Holiday time is the right time
To be complaining about a one-day sale.
Giddy-up retail slave, take all their heat
Anything to make a buck.
Bow and kiss ass and scrape at their feet
That’s why customers,
That’s why customers,
That’s why customers suuuuuuck...

Sucky C's (sung to the tune of "Silver Bells")
Sucky C's, Sucky C's
It's time to make, a tanrum scene
Ding-a-lings
Hear them plead
"Don't ruin please Christmas Day."
In the stores rush, all the kids rush
To the toy section aisle
In the air there's a wailing of brats
People pouting, babies screaming
Meeting scowl after scowl
And in every aisle you will hear..
Sucky C's, Sucky C's
It's time to make, a tanrum scene
Ding-a-lings
Hear them plead
"Don't ruin please Christmas Day."
Strings of registers, and the workers
Turning bright red and green
As the shoppers bum rush them, with carts
Hear your teeth crunch, see the people bunch
Its a Black Friday Scene
And above all the bustle you'll hear...
Sucky C's, Sucky C's
It's time to make, a tanrum scene
Ding-a-lings
Hear them plead
"Don't ruin please Christmas Day."

You are all brilliant!
Now, if only someone on this board could sing (would that be you, RK?), we could record and sell the songs for download and help support the site!

Haha - gather up all the songstresses (and song...sters?) and make a chorus!
Woo-hoo!

The Customer Suck Chorus . . . I like it. :) Now all we need is a little rehearsal, some studio time and a good promoter. We can make billions I tells ya, billions!
Great parodies everyone! Gave me the best laugh of the day. Well done!

Nice Jester, here's my version of It's the Most Craptacular Time, it's short
It's the most craptacular time of the year,
SCs come in droves and put us in fear
A lady wanting every toy for her boy
Us workers foiling some new ploy
An SC wanting something that is out
She yells at us how dare we doubt
It's the most craptacular time of the year
SCs come in droves and put us in fear!!!!

(to the tune of "silent night")
Closing shift, Closing shift,
angry guy throws a fit.
Why are we sold out of Playstation 3?
no, we don't have a Nintendo Wii.
You're out of luck, it would seem,
bitter and angry and mean.
Yes we're sold out, completely sold out,
no it won't matter, if you scream and pout.
I can not magically make things appear,
now won't you please get the hell out of here?
No we don't have any more,
stuck in the back of our store.
don't cry and sob, you lazy slob,
annoying me while I'm on the job
oh how I wish that I was off you see,
but because you procastinate, it's here I must be.
alll of the good stuff is gone,
you shouldn't have waited so long.

That is a good idea about promoting the CD and DVD of The Customers Suck Chorus. Just imaging the video's of the songs, we came up with.:lol: Now if we can get every single one of us to sing the songs, that would be awesome. On the videos we can go to every place where we work, and record the SC's in action.

Whenever I get stuck working graveyard on Christmas eve I....well I start writing all my reports in rhyming verse. Like the entire thing, every incident, report, tech issue, etc. So I see your christmas carol and raise you one caller incident written in verse:
(This was an actual call too, I can't make up this kind of stupidity. I wish I was. >< )
Twas the night before Christmas,
and all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
Except that friggan mouse.
What the hell did it want?
I thought as I answered the phone,
It was two in the morning!
Of course I should have known.
LOTTERY TICKETS! He squeeled,
I guess he just couldn't wait.
Can I get in the early bird?! He asked.
But he was two hours too late.
What do you mean?!
Can't you make an exception?
No I can't. I said.
To a chilly reception.
You can say I called earlier!
Now why would I do that?
Because you're my friend!
Actually, I think you're a prate.
Oh come on! he wailed.
In his aggravating speech.
But despite his ranting,
Time travel was past my reach.
By his 100th plea,
I thought he was done.
But as I went to hang up,
He began one-hundred and one.
It's not midnight yet!
He made one last try
It's two in the morning!
I halplessly cry.
Not here it isn't!
Well where the heck are you?
Peru he informed me.
Oh this was too good to be true.
You have to live in BC,
to purchase a ticket.
You live in Peru,
So I guess you can stick it.
I missed that part, he admitted.
As I danced in my head.
Well I guess I can't buy one.
Nope, go the hell back to bed!

I posted these last year, before the hack.
Jingle Bell Schlock (To the tune of "Jingle Bell Rock")
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell schlock
All the day long, they're playing those songs
Over and over and over again
'Til they drill them into your brain.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell schlock
The same twenty tunes by boring old loons
Andy Williams and his schmaltzy flair
Through the Muzak air.
Carpenters time, Kenny G time
It sucks my life away
Almost makes me miss the "smooth jazz"
That the boss-man used to play!
Quitting time, thank the Lord, it's time to haul
Racing to the time clock
Clash and Ramones and Pink Floyd's The Wall
Kill the jingle bell,
Kill the jingle bell,
Kill the jingle bell schlock!
Wal-Mart Wonderland (To the tune of "Winter Wonderland")
SCs scream, are you listenin'?
In the lane, spilled drink glistenin'.
A horrible sight, we're in Hell tonight
Working in a Wal-Mart Wonderland.
Gone away, is my reason.
Here to stay, Christmas Season.
It grates on my brain, and drives me insane
Working in a Wal-Mart Wonderland.
In the aisle, we can build an end cap
And we'll make it nice and straight and sound.
And when we have finished with the end cap
The SCs and their kiddies smash it down!
Later on, in the break room
We'll complain and plot their doom,
About the SCs, we'll gripe all we please
Working in a Wal-Mart Wonderland!

Those are hysterical Xcashier! :lol: Love it!
I think a customer's suck CD/DVD would be great-best if we could get the live footage of people being toads... and hey, maybe some of us can't sing well as individuals...but that's ok! As a chorus, we'll sound great! :lol:

(*To the tune of Silver Bells)
SC’s shopping, Christmas shopping
Crowding aisle after aisle
In the air there’s the stench of the masses
Elbows jabbing, People crabbing
Attitudes all most vile
And on each PA speaker you hear…
Price check pleas, “Checkers please”
Its Christmas time here in retail.
Want to yell. This is hell.
Soon it will be return time
Lines of shoppers, grumpy shoppers
All think they should be first
Hear them claim that the cust’mer's always right
Fitting room mess, lots of work stress
Have to smile at each curse
Scream the words you really want to say
“Go away.” “Stay away!”
“Leave me alone you stupid cow!”
“Can’t you think?” “Ugh, you stink”
“You’ve made me hate Christmas Day!”

And now another chestunt from the I.P. Freleigh Golden Trough of Christmas Hits...my rendition of "That's what Christmas Means to Me" by Stevie Wonder and various and sundry other artists...
Oh yeah...
Tempers runnin' short
'Lifter gets his day in court
Checkout lines are slow
Everywhere we go
PA's singing carols
I've heard too many times before
All these things and more, baby
All these things and more
That's what Christmas means to me, oh noes
(Christmas means to me, oh noes)
Dear God
Help me please!
I see your frowning face
Like I never seen before
'Cuz you scream at me so madly
I wish you'd find the door
The items you throw at me
Will drop me to the floor
All these things and more, baby
All these things and more
That's what Christmas means to me, oh noes
(Christmas means to me, oh noes)
Dear God
Please stop your running wild
Screaming like a little child
Your BO smells like moldy toes
Take a bath and wash your clothes
I wish you a crappy Christmas, moron
(wish you a crappy Christmas, moron)
And stay away in the coming year!
Let's stock the shelves with chotchkies
And piss and moan all night
Just one Elmo left to buy
Kids, watch your mommies fight
Trudge through work and get home
Just before daylight
All these things and more, baby
All these things and more
That's what Christmas means to me, oh noes
(Christmas means to me, oh noes)
Oh noes!

Hey now, I'm a trained musician/singer and i can compose/transpose sheet music and songs. I can get some friends together and we can record a cd for yall, and use the funds to support the website and make t-shirts and stuff, somebody PM me for my phone number so we can talk about it. I'm not even kidding.:)

I'm working on T-shirts separately, but as you may expect the company and I are both up to our bums in work due to the season. Should ease off after this week and I can get some progress.
As to the idea of songs etc to support the site, there's no real need. I run it as a hobby, not as a business, so that reduces my stress. If someone comes up with a bucket of songs etc, I'd be more than happy to host it here Do it for fun, not for money, y'know?
