    I used to love at the store where I was assistant manager I would be standing at a closed register going through stolen merchandise list and doing other paperwork(couldnt go to back office to do and no other place to do in store). It never stopped to amaze me the people who would come to my register shove my things aside(including the sign that would say Register Closed) and would expect me to wait on them. A lot of the time the cashier at main register would just be standing there with no people in line. Gotta love the catbutt face you get when you say the register is closed.

      hs - In that situation I would be sooo tempted to just ignore them completely. My first thought would be to put the Register Closed sign on TOP of the stuff they were trying to buy. If I were *truly* in power in such a situation, I'd just shove their stuff aside the moment they started to complain.

      I mean, is it too much to ask that someone shopping for BOOKS know how to read signs? >_<

        Keep a pad of papper with you and when ever someone says something like this, make a tick on the paper and say something like "37, thats a new record for how many times a day I've heard that phrase."
        Haha I love it.

          I was tempted to throw some of them out of the store but corporate would of folded and given them gift cards and I would of been written up. I would just keep working on what ever I was doing and pretend I didnt see the SC standing there.

            Given the number of stories on this site involving spineless managers and corporate gift-card vending services -- er, excuse me -- complaint departments, I'd say that being a jerk pays quite well...
