Yeah, that's not us lady!

I work at the store that uses a red star as it's logo.

So I answer the phone at work this morning (I'm in Petites) and this lady on the other end says something to the effect that she's decided that she does want the pants she was looking at to go with the jacket she got. I'm thinking, "Ok, and I should do what with this information." Well, she goes on insisting that somebody there rang her up and *I* had the pants. Now, I would have remembered her, she sounded like an extra from the "Sopranos". Plus, I hadn't rung up anyone with a jacket. We get going round and round with her describing where the area was. She finally asked, "Well how many outside entrances do you have there?" (and in a tone that implied I was stupid and didn't know where I was) I told her one was in between shoes and swimwear the other was between Women's World and suits. Then she says something about the shoes being downstairs and by Clinique. Well all of this at our store is upstairs. That's when it finally clicked, she was talking about Dillard's! Funny thing is, Petites is upstairs at Dillard's too. So who the hell knows where she had been! She did apologize, but in a way that implied it was still my fault! Oy!

This is after I answered the phone with, "It's an outstanding day at *store with a red star as it's logo*."

Even when it's their fault, it's STILL your fault! You just answered the phone at the wrong store. So, how'd you run all the way to the opposite end of the mall that fast?

[Pagan]

Ok, that's spooky! Are you in Albuquerque? Just wondering, since Dillard's and store-that-uses-a-red-star are on opposite ends of the mall!

And I know the layout of that Dillard's very well. I worked there for 3 years. Even though that was 4 years ago, they haven't changed the layout at all!

"It's an outstanding day at *store with a red star as it's logo*."

Ugh that is the tackyest thing I have ever heard someone have to answer the phone with, if I called someone and they answered with that I think I would drop the phone!

Yeah, tell that to corporate! I feel like a dork saying it.

They're working on it. They had a rather large aquisition last year.

No, I was thinking of a mall in Pembroke Pines, FL. Dillards is at one end and actually Burdines was at the other end, but they are now owned by the store with the red star, so I think the name was changed to your store's name, too.

I guess they're all the same, huh?
