BBL came back today. The first thing I did when I saw her was inform the other two girls that they should ask her to leave if she begs money from any of the customers. Our GM finally gave us permission to ban her if she causes trouble. BBL walks up to CW1. Without even being spoken to CW1 says:
Please don't ask me for any money. I'll kick you out if you do.
So BBL goes to CW2.
BBL: Hello, how're you! (CW2 works at wegmans and apparently BBL came in and bought lotto tickets from her. That's why BBL never has any money. She spends $40 in tickets over there and then tries to beg money off of us.)
CW2: ...good. (Continues to write up the remnant she's working on.)
BBL: Could I borrow these needles? (Holds up a pack of needles.)
CW2: If I say no are you going to call me a bitch too? (BBL had called one manager a bitch a couple weeks ago. I think I posted on it.)
BBL: What? I would never do that!
CW2: No, you cannot borrow anything. This is a store. You buy things here.
BBL: The lord loves people who give.
CW2: He must not love you because all you ever do is take. Please do not ask any of my customers for money. It is not cute, and it is not appropriate. (She snatches the needles from her and raises her eyebrows at me. It's a slow night and all I'm doing is pricing clearance buttons. I leave my bucket of buttons and follow BBL.)
She walks into the sewing machine area. The sewing machine section is actually a separate company from our own. All the machines have been covered for the night and a rope has been drawn across both entrances to keep people from entering. BBL climbs over the rope and walks to their needles. I just stand in the quilting isle and watch her. She looks over, sees me, and grabs a tissue as if that's what she was there for. I yell over to her:
Me: They're closed for the night. Please return to the open part of the store
BBL: Oh, I didn't know. (Yeah right, you didn't notice that rope with the big closed sign on it that you just pulled down.)
At that point someone comes over and asks me about transfer paper. I turn to look at her, then step to her other side so I can see both her and BBL. At this point BBL thinks my attention is no longer on her and pockets a pack of needles without even checking to see if I was looking at her. Idiot. I finish helping the customer, then go to tell my CWs. BBL has both hands shoved in her pockets, so we know she still has the needles. She then made a beeline for the exit. All three of us appear out of nowhere and cut her off at the same time.
CW1: You want to return that?
BBL: What?
Me: The needles I saw you pocket.
BBL: I didn't do nothin'
CW2: You're not leaving the store with 'sewing machine company's' stuff.
BBL: HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! GOD HATES YOU!
CW1: I can live with that. You guys?
CW2: Yeah.
Me: Yup.
CW1: Please turn out your pockets.
BBL: YOU CAN'T DO THIS!
CW2: Yes we can. (BBL pulls the needles out and throws them at CW1.)
CW1: Thanks, and I hope you know that you're now banned.
BBL: NO I'M NOT (said like a 3 year old having a tantrum.) The sewing machine lady said I could have these.
Me: Really? Why don't we just give her a call? (Yeah, that's complete bull.)
BBL: You can't ban me! I didn't steal from you! (She pushes through us, then gets stuck at the second door. Apparently CW1 had locked it so the woman couldn't get out with the stolen property. BBL Leaps at the door and actually falls on the floor. We then lock the first set of doors and trap her in there. Yeah, all she has to do is turn the lock on the outside doors, but she's really not that smart. We call the cops. Luckily they show up quickly and it's a slow night so no customers were locked in or out. CW2 walks out the back door and meets them, unlocks the front door and they haul BBL off. Apparently she's been arrested many times before. Most likely she'll spend a day in jail, be released, and come back to our store two weeks later.
I'll let you know what happens when she shows up again.
Please don't ask me for any money. I'll kick you out if you do.
So BBL goes to CW2.
