Well, with my last two weeks coming up, thought I'd post my latest tales.
Abuse of Authority, Pt. II: Hobbs' Revenge
I was tired, the store was closing soon, and I was showing several [3-4] people jewelry. Store policy, which is posted, is that only oneitem of jewelry can be shown at once. As I'm showing a lady a male bracelet, a man comes up. This is what ensues.
SC: Can I see this ring?
me: Sorry, sir, I'm only allowed to show one item at a time. I'll be with you asap.
SC: Well I didn't know! You need to put signs up [turns away] stupid f*cker.
me:
Ex-cuse me, sir!!?
[several heads turn but not SC. I know he heard, because people passed him heard, and I was using Command Voice]
me: [to LP] R, get that man, he's outta here!
R: [walks over] What happened? [I explain] Got it.
R calmly explains the man needs to leave or he'll have to call security. SC then walks up to me.
SC: [acting dumb] Um, I'm sorry, you think I said something?
me: Yeah, you called me a stupid f*cker.
SC: Well, I'm sorry if you think I said that.
me: Ok, get out [points to door]
Later, my bro said I shoulda accepted the apology, but I sure as hell wasn't going to.
Pardon? O_o
Okay, so I was pretty pissed and sleepy on Monday [I think that's when this story happened...]. I was bagging a woman's purchase and went for the smaller bags. Like all Ross bags, they don't work right, and I put some hand sanitizer to wet it a bit. I was doing this one-handed and it was getting a bit rediculous/frustration. SC was an older man who was next in line.
sc: You need to do it with both hands, if you'd just put that down [begins muttering rant about my incompetence]
me: O_o :deathglare:
I get it packed and the customer on her way and then I get SC. He wants a return, but oh, wait! Still shopping! So he wants me to hold it there. I say no prob and give him a claim ticket.
About a half hour later, he skips the line and walks up to me, practically shoving the ticket at me. I ignore until O [the 'head' FES] points him out to me.
me: Yes sir?
sc: We need our stuff to swap out.
me: Okay, then you need to get in line.
sc: [does the "oh, how stupid are you?" chuckle] no, no, that's why I gave you this, so you could do the return and then we could come up with our things, get it?
me: [thinking] wtf dude? what kind of company actually does it that way? not to mention my comp was being dodgy and asking for ID on EVERY return.
me: well, you're gonna have to get in line.
sc: [begins to bitch, and O says she'll get him]
me: [slamming his return on her desk, tossing the claim ticket at him] Fine, cuz I wasn't going to...
As I walked back to my register I muttered 'Pinche viejo.' I hope he heard...
