The supermarket where I work has found a way to stop SC's verbal abuse!!!

They're going to put up SIGNS. Cuz customers always read signs, don't they?

I think an uzi would do a much better trick. What do the signs say?

Ammo is too much, use a tricked out 10/22 (Like I have). 22LR is $9 for 550 rounds. Get some 25 round mags and you are set to go.

I wanna know what the signs say too!

And yes, customers don't read signs. We have special shelf labels that have a bib on the bottom saying "We apologize. This item is temporarily out of stock". If we find a hole on the salesfloor and the product isn't in backstock, we have to print and put up one of these labels in its place.

When I was working on the salesfloor, I frequently used to get people who would ask if we had these items in the back. (Yeah, as if we put those labels up for fun). If I ever get somebody asking me about one of these items again, I'm going to say "See that label? What does it say? Now what does it mean?!"

forget an uzi, bring in tazers

sc: I want this
employee: *tazers* thats not how you ask nicely
sc: I want this NOW
employee *tazers* not until you say the magic word
sc: please
employee *falls over dead of shock*

They haven't told us yet! Once the magic signs are in place, I'll let you know.

I hope the sign reads like this:

"If you harass our employees, you will immediately be ejected from the store...


...and into the sun. Thanks, and have a good day!"

It's even better when they don't read!

[WonTon]

It'll say "Rudeness on your part will be punishable by sudden death."

Mwahahahah!!

And yes, customers don't read signs.

We had a sign up at a register "cash or check only" (we were settling out the credit card machine) people kept walking up to it and wanted to pay by credit card. This sign was 8 x 11 and right where you set your stuff down.

Morons.

I think that this would be a good way to deal with those annoying pesky sucky customers. I think that every employee should have one of this within reach. I don't think that you would have more than one person act up.

[RecoveringKinkoid]

Used to be an ex marine named Pappy that ran a chicken, fries, and beer establishment here in town. He had the best sign, ever, up at the register. It said:

"This ain't McDonalds. You dont get it your way. You get it my way, or you don't get the son of a bitch."

[Mr. Rude]

Bah!! Kiwi beat me to the taser idea....
