  • Get OUT!

    Another instance of customer walking into my department, but it didn't happen to me, which is a shame really... I actually LOVE to boot customers out. it's a guilty pleasure.

    Follow me down the path of least resistance!

    L: "Lisa" My manager.
    M: Morooooooon.
    Michel: Store manager. To customers, Michel is God of the whole mall, for some reason.

    L: *walks in the department, finds a customer deep into it, next to the slicer* What are you doing here sir???? (not happy)

    M: I'm looking for fresh raisin bread! Do you have any? (note that where he was, he was staring down the godbang raisin bread.)

    L: Yes I do but I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.

    M: Why?

    L: This is an employee only zone, you have to leave.

    M: I ALWAYS come in here! (Here we go... )

    L: No, this is a freshness zone, you should not be here!

    M: MICHEL ALWAYS GIVES ME PERMISSION TO BE HERE! (Second blatant lie)

    L: (Losing patience at this point) SIR, Michel or no Michel, THIS is MY department, and I am the boss, so GET OUT!

    M: WHO DECIDED THAT?

    L: THE LAW!!!

    He finally left while mumbling and cursing under his breath. Sheesh, why is it so hard for these people to obey such laws?

    It's hard for people to obey such laws because it interferes with their (in their own mind) right to go wherever they want, for whatever reason whenever they want.

    Or something.

      It's nice to see "The Law" being used for good, instead of sucky sucky Evil.

          Booting customers is fun. Especially when you can announce the fact that the local police department is going to possibly be involved. I've had several and they usually end up like this:

          Me: You need to leave.
          SC: No.
          Me: Yes, you really need to.
          SC: No, I am not.
          Me: Ok, I am going to disagree....
          SC: I'm not leaving
          Me: Ok, I believe that the Police Department might be notified
          SC: Ok, I'll leave.

          Usually doesn't go that smoothly, but, as soon as the words "police" or "law enforcement" are used, they'd leave quickly. Probably because I worked in a more crime-involved area and a good portion of the residents had active warrants or something. :-p

          (Even though there were a LOT of super nice people in that same neighborhood)
          Answers are easy...it is asking the right questions which is hard.
