Customer: You're probably on your lunch right now, but I'd bet you'd like to make a sale!
Me: Well, I'm not getting paid right now...
Customer: Still, YOU'LL MAKE A SALE.

Just die.

Robots don't need to eat!


Why is it that customers seem to catch people on their lunch break as if you're the ONLY ONE working in the store!

[marasbaras]

Are you even on commission? How much is a ruined lunch break worth?

And since it's already ruined anyway...

But OTOH, we want to train the SCs to leave us alone when we're on our breaks.

[TonyDonuts]

Wouldn't "training" them required a rolled-up newspaper?

"NO! BAD SC! BAD!" <whap>

[Samaliel]

I'd rather go with electroshocks...

I'd rather use an actual train.

I get 2% commission on own-brands. He wasn't buying own-brands.

Me: No.

I learned during student teaching that lunchtime was sacred. I also tend to take it out of sight of everyone. Even at camp, when I have to supervise a table, it takes a big stick to winkle me out of the dining hall. If I have to attend to something, I will assign a reliable camper or the adult at the next table to keep some food for me.

I see that you understand nothing about me or retail.

[chainedbarista]

I'd bet you'd like to make a sale!

sure, once i'm done with my BREAK, since i need to eat, i'm on my BREAK. i'll be glad to help you after my BREAK, then i'll handle your sale, but i need to finish my BREAK first.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

Customer: You're probably on your lunch right now, but I'd bet you'd like to make a sale!

Me: Seeing as how I'm not on commission and I am on lunch, I couldn't possibly care less. Can't talk. Eating. Bye.

[crazylegs]

Me: Well, I'm not getting paid right now...
Customer: Still, YOU'LL MAKE A SALE.

I'm sorry, I'm unable to facilitate your request to require the Universe to revolve around your heavenly body as the law dictates I take this break.

(I like your answer better though! )

[RetailWorkhorse]

I'd bet you'd like to make a sale!

Me: Sir, unless you're prepared to spend $900 in the next five minutes, the answer is a resounding NO.**






**Actually said to a customer who was trying to get me to REOPEN MY STORE so he can buy a single tube of toothpaste. He tried to bribe me with, of all things, a DOLLAR.

He came back the next day for his toothpaste.

[AKWalMartCartGuy]

it would be understandable if you made enough commission(I'd interrupt a break for $20), AND you had an hour break, but most customers wouldn't have a way to know those things were true, so why would they ask?
