Archived Do any of you get the same quests from people on a daily basis?

[VanillaBeaner]

If I'm going to get dairy or trying to find the LOD to talk to them somewhere else in the store

"Where is the Starbucks here?"
"Where are the checklanes?"
"Can you help me find razors?"
"I don't want this but I don't want to leave it on a shelf somewhere, can you put it away for me?"
"Where are the gluten free foods?"
"Where are your (insert fresh fruit/veggie here)?" (we don't sell them)

If I'm at Starbucks...
"Why don't you take the Mobile payment?"
"Why can't I redeem Star rewards here?"
"Do you sell regular coffee?"

and because I'm in Canada
"Did you work for Zellers?"
"Target bought Zellers out, right?" along with "This place looks just like Zellers." (we are in the old Zellers buildings and Zellers was also red and white)

 

[BackroomDayside]

"Do you guys sell Ice melt?"

"No. We havent had any since december."

Still snow on the ground..

"No. We havent had any since december."

"Why don't you have gloves, it's 28 degrees outside?"
Well, if you had bought them back in August when we first got them...

Do you have shovels/sleds/scrappers? There's a snow storm coming.
They went on clearance four weeks ago.
Do you need gardening tools or swim wear?

Lately people have been asking for Hershey's chocolate syrup...

I've been asked about ice cream toppings quite a bit lately. We have them on a back endcap across from the ice cream.

 

[sigma7]

Where's the bathroom?
Where's guest service? (We just got IGS)

Both legitimate questions in my opinion, but you had to pass both to get to me. Situational awareness people.

 

[redeye58]

"Where's the bathroom?"
Around the corner.
"Where?!"
Beneath the large hanging sign, you navigationally-impaired twit.

 

[TargetOldTimer]

The only question that gets to me is "where is the front door?"

Some people have no sense of direction.

 

[researchr]

Where are the marshmallos? At LEAST 1x/day...

 

[mrknownothing]

"Where's the bathroom?"
Around the corner.
"Where?!"
Beneath the large hanging sign, you navigationally-impaired twit.

At my store, we're asked where the "washrooms" are. I always want to ask "what the hell is a washroom?!"

 

[mrknownothing]

Lately, I've been getting a lot of religious solicitors. I get that Easter is coming up, but still.

I go to church every Sunday, and not just because I "have to." Why do I get more of these solicitors than the rest of the team?

 

[3LetterDevil]

Lately, it's been Vaseline, alcohol swabs, and latex gloves....fortunately not by the same people

 

[jmoo2k13]

I get asked five times a day. "Do you work here? the red and khaki and name tag I have on doesnt answer that question. Where is the bathroom, a lot. Where is seasonal( easter candy/christmas items and so on).

 

[wageslave1138]

"Do you work here?"

then I look at my badge and reply, "yes, I think so"

 

[3LetterDevil]

I've been asked quite a bit lately "Do you work here?" I've started answering "Yes....as little as possible" It usually gets a chuckle

 

[redeye58]

I've been asked quite a bit lately "Do you work here?" I've started answering "Yes....as little as possible" It usually gets a chuckle

Reminds me of my fav ecard:
"How many people work here?"
"On a good day? About half."

 

[Arkhon]

When do you guys close?
Do you work here?
Do you sell alcohol/cigarettes?
Do you have an ATM?
Do you know how to get to Wal-Mart?

 

[redeye58]

1. Later than I'd like
2. Only when I have to
3. Yes & no
4. Yep & it may or may not work so use it at your own risk
5. If I did, do you think I'd be working HERE?!

 

[Rarejem]

I've been asked quite a bit lately "Do you work here?" I've started answering "Yes....as little as possible" It usually gets a chuckle

I usually say "That's what I tell my boss."

 

[wageslave1138]

Customer: "can I ask you a question?"

Me: "you just did"

 

[Rumplexx]

Do you work here?
Where is the chili? (apparently it's in a hidden spot)
Do you have lay-away?
Where are the potatoes? (we're not p-fresh yet)
When is this going back on sale? (I actually answered with, "I can't tell the future" once and was surprised I didn't get in trouble.)
Where are the restrooms?
You have a scanner, can you tell me how much this is? (usually while they are standing right next to a price check scanner)
Where are the randomproductX? (this only annoys me when it turns out they just want to find it so they can scan it for some phone app... way to waste my time, people)

 

[insiteful1]

Mothballs. RIT dye. Spray paint. Ice cube trays. I get those four items nearly daily.

 

[HardlinesFour]

RIT dye.

That stuff is really cool Makes old, over-washed denim jeans look like new...

 

[redeye58]

RIT dye.

That stuff is really cool Makes old, over-washed denim jeans look like new...

Been there, dyed that

 

[pharmtechno]

Vaseline ALL THE TIME! Buncha slimy guests running around out there.

 

[lovecats]

I get the "where are the restrooms?" and "do you work here?" all the time.
