An annoying customer and her daughters, plus payment!

I have a headache. I just got home from work and somehow I don't think that is going to help me allievate it. (Though it is some ( Read more... )

I still don't get why people don't carry around their driver's license or state ID - the chances of needing to use it are pretty high. Plus I wonder if she drove to the store - since her 7th grade daughters shouldn't have. It is possible they got a ride, walked, or public transportation but by the sounds of it, it really wouldn't surprise me if she just doesn't care about having her license on her.

Getting out of retail would be nice. I've only had limited experience - I worked in a book store for a summer but it was Case's book store so the cliental was a bit different and I was part of their social group so I got little grief.

Good luck!

She was with her sister too. (There were four of them.) So it was possible that Auntie dearest drove.

I look forward to giving you a hug tomorrow, and we can swipe retail horror stories as well...from the SHOE perspective even! *HUGS*

I didn't know you worked in shoes! I actually love my department. I just need to find a job in my field and get out of this one.

And I am looking forward to seeing you. I thought I saw in an earlier post of yours that you have a new job. So no hanging out on Monday?

Yep, I did...Payless ShoeSource...two different locations...one and a half years.

Sorry! I didn't see this before you came down...no, no hanging out obviously...this week though.

I've been told my many people not to work in retail unless I have to. This time of year, people are getting frustated with their kids cause there is so much to do before school starts...and the summer ends. Yes I think that it's time to move out of the shoe biz. I hear ads on the radio that Clear Channel Radio is looking for females to work there, check it out. If it works out maybe you could come to Syracuse. :) Hugs Sis! Good luck.

PS. I know the frustation of discovering that you don't have your credit card. I went to rent a car the other day and had to go back to the collison shop to get my current licience out of the car. The guy behind the counter said that he couldn't except my old liciense. ( I was in a car accident last weekend and I have $2600 in repairs but at least I didn't get hurt just the car. Glad I have insurance.)

I would say better retail than fast food. Of course I hate working with food.

If you hear anything, send it my way.

Are you okay? What happened? You are the third friend in weeks time to get in a car accident.

I have a neighbor down the hall from me that works at Clear Channel and I'll ask her what opening they have there. I'm ok from the accident..had a panic attack and mom and dad have helped me through it. I hope to get my car back Tuesday or Wednesday, hope it's as good as new or better! :) *hugs* keep in touch girl! love ya.

You have my sympathy. I've had that same exchange here at Meijer over a check, and ended up having to get a manager to tell her that, "Yes, we really do need to see your driver's license." And in my case, she had her I.D., she just didn't want to bother looking through her purse for it.

Oh, and we're hiring here, since you asked. ;-)

God bless retail, because nobody else will. ^_^
