So, tonight was horrible. In a fairly large store, I ended up with a total of four people running the entire thing tonight. And all but one needed a lunch break, so at one time, two of us were on lunch. It was not fun.
We had to deal with insane multi-customer-tasking and all people on registers at times, with no one in the departments. I'm surprised we didn't get our thieves in tonight what with a perfect setup for them.
Had a customer decide to crap on the floor. And not in the bathrooms either. And we only found out about it when another customer stepped in it.
And not only that, but a person who happened to be in that worked with us was on his day off and clocked in to clean it for us as we were swamped. I was like... 
Thanks dude... that sucks for you but thanks anyway.
And, for the final wtf for tonight, I had my first obscene phone call at work. Well.. probably ever, but it made me
for a while and still is.
Phone rings. I answer with my usual spiel thanksforcallingblahblahblah...
Guy On Phone: Hi, um.. I was in your store earlier tonight.. and well... um.. I needed to use the restroom and um.. well.. I feel really bad.. but um... well I'm not going to beat around the bush with it, I'll just say it. I masturbated in your restroom. I mean, I feel really bad about it, cause I shop there all the time and I.. I'd like to come in and clean it up cause it kind of went everywhere and.. yeah..
Me: Um... Well, I can say that we would appreciate it if you did, as it would save us having to clean it up and if it would make you feel better, I'd say sure, that would be fine and appreciated by all of us.
GOP: Well, I mean, I feel really bad and all, and my ballsack was pretty heavy and I just had to do it, you know. There should be a sign or something in there for people like me who have to masturbate in public places or something.
Me: ..... Umm... Yeah. Well, if you want to come and clean it up we'd really appreciate it.
GOP: You know, you're really sweet about this, I really feel bad y'know, you're so kind. What time do you get off work?
Me: The store closes at 11pm. (definitely not telling him what time I leave)
GOP: Well, I'd love to take you out on the town, maybe some drinks or something, we could have some fun.
Me: Heheh, I'm married, but thanks for the offer. (starting to suspect at this point)
GOP: I've got some tastey popsicles in my basement. You could come over and have some if you like.
Me: Um.. that sounds lovely, but no thanks, I'm married.
GOP: You're so nice, I'd love to... (I don't remember what he said at this point, honestly, I think I blocked it out, but it was something I was not comfortable with, as it was suggestive, but it wasn't nasty as far as I remember.)
Me: Okay, I'm hanging up now.
GOP: Alright, I'll see ya around Sugarlips.
Me: 
*hangs up*
I was trying to be nice, as it wasn't horrible but it was NOT something I was comfortable with, and no, there was no mess in the bathroom either, so I'm pretty damn sure it was a prank call or (hopefully not!) maybe the beginnings of a stalker... and it wasn't just on me, as I just happened to answer the phone. I have a feeling they woulda pulled something on whoever answered. And I did hear laughing in the background a time or two as well. Ugh. People need to go dunk their heads in a cold bucket of tomato juice if they think that's something that is amusing or acceptable.
At least we weren't still busy and I was in the office trying to do paperwork at the time. I probably wouldn't have had as calm a reaction as I did if otherwise, I think.
*sigh*
