  • A Little Late but funny

    During Christmas (I know a little late, but my computer access is limited at the moment) I had a guest ie. suckycustomer, come up well before we opened. Me and a coworker thought this odd, but we get vendors in all the time.

    SC: I'm looking for a few things.
    Me and coworker: Ok what are they?
    SC: Well first I'm looking for some flip flops.
    M/C: we don't think they are out yet.
    SC: Well how about some sidewalk calk?
    M/C: Sorry that isn't out yet either, that is more into spring summer.
    SC: (now getting upset) Water Guns!!!
    M/C: They are spring toys won't set out till late Feb. March Sorry.
    SC: Well you're both stupid and rude!!!! (cat but face given) \
    SC storms off and we don't hear more about it till later when we found out that he cussed out our LOD and another coworker about how he couldn't do what he wanted when he wanted and so on. OBTW he wasn't a vender he just snuck in while the early crew was getting in.

    Sounds like he was looking for something he knew he couldn't get, just so he could pick a fight. All of those items are spring/summer things, in snowy parts of the country they don't sell them at Christmas time. And as usual, "we don't have any" translates (in his mind) into "rude."
    When you start at zero, everything's progress.

              And nowadays if you can't find something locally due to the season, you can order it online. That guy was a putz. Having said that...good story, and much better late than never

                    Here in So Cal, the bathing suits go up in the stores immediately after Christmas. I grant you, we've had a ridiculously warm start to the year (90. In February.), but I can't imagine that many people want bathing suits that early.

                      I'm in NC and our swimsuits were up right after Christmas (seems to be earlier and earlier every year) but it was explained to me that was because people go on cruises a lot in the winter. Flip flops same thing. Actually, they've been up and already gone on clearance.

                          *raises her hand* I've gone into work on days off wearing flip flops and had coworkers ask me if I'm crazy. I just tell them 'um, duh!'

                            I've been wearing flipflops out of the house all winter long. Then again, our winter has been warm and (as usual) muggy, about 10 degrees F higher than usual. I was sweating my arse off all day Thursday x.x

                              We can wear flip flops to work...I sometimes do in the summertime but the place is so cold inside that in cooler months I just wear socks and shoes/sneakers. I can take them off when I get home if it's too warm.
