Being a specialist back there for a few years and now a brand TM I have seen some really dumb guests.
Fellow electronics team members, share your story of rude, lazy, or plain right stupid guests.
One thing that bothers me are all the people that have to open an ipad case or phone case to see if they like it, then throw it on the base deck when they decide they don't. You see most of the packaging is either transparent allowing you to see the item, has a hole in the case so you can feel the texture and material, and is plastered with pictures of the case all over the packaging.
Not only are they too thick to actually use the packaging as intended, but they usually end up ripping up the packaging making it so that when they decide they don't want it I have to repackage it and we eat a loss.
What they do to phone cases really grinds my gears too. You see they label the boxes with the phone it fits. It will NOT fit any other model. Again the packaging is designed to allow visibility and a hole for checking texture. I can't tell you the amount of guest I see ripping into a phone case to "see if it fits my phone". To which I usually respond "Is your phone (model on package)?" and tell them in the nicest way it will only fit the phone that's listed and how if they open them we can't sell them as new and we lose money. Most guests are reasonable and stop ripping stuff up, others get huffy and wait for me to walk away before tearing into the next.
Oh or the ones that tear an item open, look at it, throw the open item on the basedeck and pick up an unopened package. I want to shove the damn iphone cases down their throat! lol
Enough ranting for me tonight.
