This Christmas Eve just gone..
It had just turned 7:05pm. We were due to close at 7pm, but Christmas being Christmas we didn't close on time. Fair enough. Last minute idiots, etc.
We pulled the shutters down, when a customer came bounding over and shouted through the door..
SC: Are you closed?
Me: Yes, sorry.
SC: PLEASE!! YOU GOTTA OPEN!!! I need some perfume for my daughter!!
Me: I'm sorry, but we're closed. We can't open again now.
SC: PLEASE!!
Me: We can't open, I'm sorry. Our store in town (less than 10 mins walk away) is open til 8 tonight? Perhaps you could try there?
SC: Oh, it's okay, I'll go to (competing department store further down the mall)
FFS! Why didn't you just go there to begin with you dozy cow?!
