  • Oh Come, Oh Come Emmanuel...

    Quite a motley collection at my Aid of Rite today!

    Oh Come, Oh Come Emmanuel

    Today when I was telling a woman she was all set with her card, she said, "Oh, we're so happy! Do we have a little Jesus in us?"

    I WISH my mind was working faster, there are SO many things that could be done with her statement. I was quiet for a moment before I wished her an excellent day.

    I Want It, Oh I Want It, Oh I Want It For My Own!

    There was a girl who came up to manager S2 today and begged, and pleaded, practically on bended knee, for S2 to sell her some cigarettes even though she didn't have her license.

    S2's reply? "Sorry, I don't break the law."

    This Blessed Babe To Find...

    A little boy, probably around 7 ish, got separated from his mother and was crying his eyes out. We page for his mom, by her name, to come get him. When his mom doesn't come up, manager J walks the boy around the store to try to find her.

    Mom was in line at the pharmacy, and she snapped at her son for getting lost. And at manager J for helping him out.

    There were about ten angry customers who screamed at her but Mom was not phased.

    The Breath From My Mistress Reeks...

    I had to scream at a little old lady who just could NOT understand what I was saying. "HUH? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!!" type thing. And to top it off, she had denture breath. I had not known what denture breath was until I smelled it from her.

    Shit on Floor

    Nothing cute to describe this. Old Lady missed the toilet in the women's room and that was the result.

    I Want It, Oh I Want It, Oh I Want It For My Own!

    S2 and I would have gotten along perfectly. As you know, my store's policy was to keep on selling till the bureau sends an agent and try to sell to him while he's fining our ass.

    This Blessed Babe To Find...

    I'll see your little boy and raise you a pair of infants.

    Last month, these two babies were left by the service desk. I rang customers up, keeping an eye on the babies while I tried to figure out where the hell the parents had wandered off to.

    Turns out they were five feet away looking through pens. I guess 99 cent pen is worth more than your two precious little ones.


    All I can say to those last two is that I'm glad I'm not working at Rank Aid anymore, but honestly they follow you no matter where you work.

      Kudos to them and J for at least trying... Some people just will not comprehend that they've done wrong.

          Both men and women can have horrible aim, whether by accident or on purpose. Messed-up bathrooms are an equal opportunity offense.

            They certainly are. The fun thing is when the human filth isn't in the restroom. Today it was at register 7.

              Okay, that made me spew before I even read what it was about.

              And I suppose that when you hear her speak, well you know music hath a far more pleasant sound...

                  Do I understand correctly that your store manager would be so spineless as to sell cigs to someone without ID, then throw you under the bus if you got caught?

                    That is essentially what came to my mine when I read it, too.

                    Gives new meaning to the thread title, too. >_>

                      I still don't understand how they can spray the back of the toilet with a SOLID. Found that in 4 out of the 6 stalls the other day. What are people eating??

                        I'm convinced they eat 10 bean burritos and an entire package of Ex-lax before they go shopping. At least that's how the public bathrooms look!

                          Let me put it this way. I got written up and had my hours cut because customers would complain about me refusing them a sale on cigarettes and alcohol. (All legitimate refusals)

                          But the cashier that sold both alcohol and cigs indiscriminantly got rewarded with gift cards because the customer went on line and sung their praises.

                          I'm not exaggerating this either. It's one of the many reasons I finally snapped and left the place...standing, unfortunately.
