I was working in the Women's dept today. We were on the slow/steady side so I was able to leave the cash register to grab a hand full of clothes from the dressing room and place them on the sorting rack near the register.
The dressing room is 10 feet away from the register
I was gone long enough to grab a hand full of clothes, so literally 30-45 seconds.
Oh and I am the only one working the floor in my dept at this time.
What do I see when I come back? A customer who was picking up my phone and trying to dial.
ME: I am going to go postal one day ~my thoughts
SC: %#%&@&%*&*
ME: Can I help you, mam?
SC: *slams phone down* I thought no one was here.
ME: I am here, I just had to go empty the dressing room.
~I have no idea who she thought she was going to call. The phones do not call out. I think she was trying to page someone to the dept.
~Keep in mind I was only gone for 30-45 seconds and no one was in sight of the register when I left. So, she must have immediately walked up to the register and ran to the phone,
SC: I don't have my charge card. I called the credit number and they said that all I need was my ID and you could look it up and give me a temp card.
ME: I am sorry, he was mistaken. You can only get a temp card at the catalog desk.
SC: But he told me I could do it at any register.
ME: A manager has to do that. they have to enter a code to do so. I am not a manager and I do not know the code so I can't do it.
SC: So you are telling me that I can't use my card and get the additional 15% discount??
ME: You can, you just need to go to the catalog desk to get your temp card. You can even check out there.
SC: I WANT to get a temp card! The guy at credit said I could do it in ANY dept!!11!! *blink and stares at me*
~Oh honey, I INVENTED the blink and stare. That won't work with me.
ME: *blink and stare back*
SC: *Blink and stare*
ME: ~ain't gonna work
SC: Where is the catalog desk?
ME: Go straight to children's, turn right, pass shoes, go through mens, all the way down past the salon.
SC: Of course it is on the other side of the store.
I never did get to ask the catalog person how it went down on her end.
