Stop or I'll kick you in the testicles!
Okay, so I promised Wedge I'd post an entry before the end of the month because I haven't posted in forever. This isn't that entry, this is just for your amusement.
The trials and tribulations of Target:
Last night, there was a car on fire in the parking lot. The cart attendant, Alvin, comes over the walkie and says "GSTL, I won't be able to bring carts in for a while because the cart pusher is right next to a car that's on fire." And then the entire store proceeded to run outside to see what was going on.
And then today, I'm over at guest service giving Lauren her break, and this older man comes in with an opened DVD of Pan's Labyrinth. He said he wanted to do an exchange, and I said okay, and then he said: "There's nothing really wrong with it except it's all in Spanish." Ba-dum-bum.....too bad he was serious. LOL. That made my whole day.
Oh, and last Tuesday, I was in working service desk. And this couple comes up. Apparently they had gotten married in May and gotten some luggage as a gift. They felt no need to take it out of the box right away since they weren't going anywhere. The gift receipt expired in July. There was something wrong with one of the wheels. They don't see why they can't return it. And right when I started to explain our return policy (no valid receipt dated within 90 days, no return with the exception being things under $20 which are then refunded to a gift card at the lowest selling price), they just shut me down and tell me they're going to go to another store and tell them they just bought it and walk out the door. Well, good for you, but they won't take it back either you fucking douchebags. I was amused. They yelled at me and then didn't give me a chance to explain the return policy or offer to call an LOD.
Also, today I was cashiering and this lady comes up buying one of those VSmile things for her kid. She asks if we do price matching on them. I say "No, we don't do any price matching" and she says "Well, that sucks because it's $10 cheaper at Toys R Us." To which I very nearly replied: "So go there then." But I managed to hold my tongue. Stupid gits.
Anyway, I will eventually post a real entry, I just don't feel like it right now.
