I'm amazed how this virus has brought out the different sides of people. I work retail and we are still open. This week my company decided not to accept returns or exchanges. Most understand why. Some react so very crazy. We are extending the return window so things will be taken back in a few weeks. They can also return through the mail. This to prevent exposure to the virus. A woman was refused an exchange and explained why. She started yelling and calling the manager horrible names. She threw a trash can. It almost hit another customer. We had to call the police. One person was shown the sign that states the policy. He came back and demanded to know why. The virus can live on products for hours up to days. That is why we are trying to avoid exposing both workers and customers. He left mad. Yet everyday I have several customers say thank you for my being careful and helping them. I could take paid leave for a month, but would rather save that till I really might need it.
retail hell,
