(longish)No, I can't rewrite corporates return policy for you.

What a bitch! I'm glad 12 told her off and took back the coupon. Not only does he have his full spine, like IT Grunt said, he's got a serious set too!

Calling managers by number rather than name strikes me a little strange. I'm picturing 12 wearing a badge with a pennyfarthing bicycle and the number 12 on it, saying, "Be seeing you!" to the leaving customer...

We have a promotion that is basically called, "Anthracite Cash" . If you spend $50, you get $10 dollars of this "A Cash". thats for every 50. so if you spend 200, you get 40, etc, etc. If you make a purchase where you earn this cash, and later spend that cash, when you return the item that was purchased to earn the cash, your return amount is reduced by the amount of cash you earned. so if you buy a sweater for $50, and get 10 in this cash, and then use the cash to buy say, a cup, if you then return that sweater, we will give you back $40 dollars. its complicated, but it makes sense to me.

Similar thing at "Canuckistan Rubber Donuts" - when you return something that was paid for in cash (and therefore received some of Canuckistan's second currency), the refund is reduced by the amount of "second currency" you received UNLESS you turn in that "second currency". You pretty much have to have it in your hand (and exact change - if you got 10 cents worth, and are holding out a 25 cent bill, they won't break it to take back the 10 cents worth, but will do the deduction as if you hadn't tendered anything).

now, the 12 is an ex marine.

Never been a Leatherneck, but how can an ex-Marine be working as a manager? From what I've heard, to be an ex-Marine you have to no longer be looking at the grass from the green side. "No longer active duty" Marine I can understand.

Once a Marine, always a marine. ( to 12 for having a spine and for serving.)

I suppose it's a bit like having an employee number... but I'd love to see a customer's reaction to having numbers on a badge like that for everyone in the store.

I LOVE that!! Course, I have a miniature penny farthing sitting in my living room, with a map of the Village on it....

When they start using sentient weather balloons for security detail, then I'll begin to worry...

"What do you want?"
"Anthracite Refund."
"You won't get it."
"By hook, or by crook, we will"
" I am not number 12, I am a free man...ager!"
"Aahh..hahahaHAHAHAHAH!!!!"
