Work: Like an SNL sketch come to life
It was while I was driving home that I realized three separate instances all related back to Saturday Night Live. Granted, it's not as if work was funny ha-ha today; in fact, it caused great physical and I suppose you could say emotional issues. But we all survived. If only I hadn't met the ( Grade-A Grand Poobah of Assholes... )
Oh, man, I so wanted to make a comment like, I've noticed that the people who put up the biggest fuss are the people who are trying to pull scams. You're not trying to pull a scam, are you? Of course, I think the guy would literally have exploded--like blood and body parts everywhere--had I said anything of the sort. He just came in angry and would not chill out at all. This guy returned all but one item on his receipt, too; I got that confirmation from R today. (See today's entry.)
The only reason R had me ask for an ID was to make sure everything was on the up-and-up. That's really what I was going for, too. Clearly he had the receipt, and we'll give him the benefit of the doubt for being two days past. It's the amount that set off the alarms in my head, and P's too. (Oh, holy crap, I totally forgot something about work today.) Most people wouldn't mind showing a receipt. They understand that the store is looking our for its best interests. When someone refuses to show an ID, that's when the warnings sound in your head. And, it seems like it happened for good reason.
I can't believe you have to take back a clearly used item. I don't care if they do have a receipt; if it's not something we can sell (not counting defective items) we can't take it back. Stupid company.
