  • Flatulent teenage girls!

    So yesterday was the first day of our Super Duper Uber Stupendous Lowest Prices of the Season sale, and it wasn't really sucky, just busy.

    Just a few stories:

    Flawyer Heard From

    One of our big specials was a certain kind of storage tote priced at 2 for $8.88. They were flying out the door and we were completely out of the totes by 8 pm. Store manager asked me to check and see if we had any more in the back, which we did not.

    So of course I had to get flagged down by this moron:

    Customer: Where are the storage totes that you have on sale for 2 for $8.88?
    Me: I'm sorry, those are sold out. They've been selling really fast all day.
    Customer: Well, can't you check the backroom or something?
    Me: ...okay. I'll be right back.

    I went to the backroom for a couple drinks of water and to BS with the truck crew.

    Me: (returning) I'm sorry, we have no more in the backroom.
    Customer: Why do you always advertise things and not have them in stock? That's false advertising if you ask me! I hope Kohls puts you out of business!

    Y'know, if I had a dollar for every time somebody accused us of false advertising, I'd have...all these dollars.

    FAAAARRRRTTTTTT...giggle giggle...

    While filling things from autopulls yesterday, I noticed a pack of teenaged girls wandering around aimlessly talking and giggling about stupid shit. Or something.

    Then I saw them head into one of the toys aisles and heard many fart noises coming from said aisle.

    Turned out they were playing with the whoopie cushions we have for sale in the $1.99 novelty toys aisle.

    Oh well, it lightened my mood.

    A really fun game to play:

    Next time you're in a store and you're wearing open-back shoes like clogs, kick them off your feet and see how far you can make them fly down the aisle.

    Doesn't this sound like a rip-roaring good time to you? Well evidently another group of preteen girls thought it was. I had to ask them to stop after they nearly hit a customer in the back with one of their flying shoes.

    There isn't enough for young teens to do in this town.

    there isn't enough for any teens to do in this town, including the 18/19s from what I've heard, and am probably about to verify for myself. maybe that's why our shrink went up so much? nothing else to do

        They've probably developed an immunity to it early on in life.

          my fave teen shenanigans is grad time. Every year a wild pack of teens, boys and girls, run through the store yelling and whooping an screaming. One year a pack of boys ran through nekkid and our manager was positively PURPLE with anger

          The rest of us? we get a kick out of it, and end up smiling the rest of our shifts after one of these occurrences.

            Same as my town. We used to have Miniature golf. A water park, an arcade and other things that teens can go too. They all went out of business. Fucking sucks too. Cannot take a date anywhere now-a-days.

                When I was a teen, I used to stay in my room, playing music at ear bleeding volume and writing poetry. Doesn't cost a thing.

                And yes, my poems actually were good. XD

                    Only AFTER they almost hit someone? I'd have asked them to stop immediately. But then, I have to qualms about being the "bad guy" when it comes to kids misbehaving in my store. Everyone else usually ignores them, but I don't hesitate to say NO RUNNING or NO SKATING, or whatever else is required.

                    In this case, I'd have gone to the MOD for permission to kick them out.

                      Too bad they took you at your word. Would have been good if they said "Are you sure? Can't you go back and check again???

                        Me, too. And that was 20+ years ago at that.
