TTOG: I'm not sure why you asked me if we had any sheets when you and your entire 10 person family of very loud and malodorous rednecks were standing in the middle of our sheet aisle and had been looking and talking about them for several minutes, but... thanks for the story, I guess? I literally just stood there for a moment while I tried to answer the question, like... "Uhhh, any... particular kind of sheets?" So he asked one woman in his group (whom I will refer to as grandma, because that's the kind of vibe I was getting), if she was looking for any particular kind of sheets, and her response was to yell "I TOLD Y'ALL I WANTED A SHEET OUTFIT. Y'ALL ARE REALLY GETTIN' ON MY NERVES." I was terrified. I had no idea what else to do. So I just kind of gestured to the sheets and left... rest in peace.

This is not even a particularly insane story compared to what I've seen on here but I've only been working at the Spot for about two months so I was... terrified. Especially since we normally don't get groups like this in our extremely small store.

A sheet outfit?
As in the kind with a pointy hood?
Doesn't seem like a Target brand item.

Speaking of annoying malodorous rednecks, to whoever left their god damn dip bottle in my zone, go shove an elevated truck up your ass please.

Our nearest walmart is actually pretty far away so these people often flock to my store instead.

Ya we have a redneck family that visits quite frequently. *cue dualing banjos* they once bought $10 worth of hot cocoa in one go and put $2 on each ebt card..

These are the same procrastinating pissants who will pick thru the Halloween wreckage the day of, asking if 'this is ALL you have?'
That's when I smile, give the little Vanna White head tilt that means 'sorry, not sorry' as I tell them that all the GOOD stuff had been out WEEKS ago.

That reminds me, to every guest who loudly declares to their party "Let's go to another store, I bet they have it." I smile because it doesn't hurt me you're going to buy a single item at another store, the fact you say it loudly as if it will make me feel bad shows just how pathetic you are.

I had some disgusting bastard spit his chaw into the bag I had hanging off the back of my three-tier cart while I was setting the Smith & Hawking aisle a couple of years back.

At that point I just start sending people to the Spirit Halloween right across the street. Sometimes they bitch about it being too expensive but that's what you get for shopping at the last five minutes possible
 
TTOG: I wasn't sitting at the end of the parking lot for my health. There was someone walking across the walkway AND someone turning down our row, BOTH of whom you almost hit when you zoomed around me after honking your horn at me 3x! Maybe if you had your headlights on, you would've seen them, ya jack wagon! I just LMAO when the guy sat at the light ahead of you and I ended up ahead of you again!
 
Oooooo this lady unverbally bitched me out today. Didn't say a word but I knew from the moment she strolled up I went "oh s---" and I said "Hi, how are ya doin?" and she just stares at me like "really?"

I just bag her stuff and she wants to use the 10$ off coupon for Women's Clothing over $40. She bought all men's clothes and two pairs of shoes. I scanned her coupon and then explained to her "Oh it's for women's clothing I can't take this coupon" and she instantly just exploded with "Well I bought a pair of shoes!? They're $38 aren't they!?" and they weren't even $30 and my GSTL apparently over heard that and I almost said "You're gonna get told the same thing." to the lady. My GSTL turned down the coupon and walked away and the lady bit the bullet and put her card into the machine. She paid and I said "Alright have a good night" and she probably sat there for 5 seconds just giving me the stink-eye. Her son didn't seem too amused at her.

I think her sister was at my store. Has someone try and pull the same thing yesterday, except she didn't even have women's shoes, she had kids' clothes & sandals. And not even girl clothes, they were all boys'. When I told her I couldn't use the coupon, she decided she would go up front.
 
Ttog thank you for apologizing. You are progressing from entitled to stand-up-Joe status.

TTOG, good luck expecting anyone else to smile and say SURE when you ask them to "Shut the fuck up and bag my shit, bitch." You're small, you have bad attitude, and you live in a shitty area. You're going to get broken teeth one of these days. ;)

And I don't care what my store's policies are. Next time I see you, I'm refusing service if you haven't learned to treat cashiers like humans. So that "precious fucking time" that I was taking, talking with the guest before you while scanning their items -- MULTITASKING, which you apparently have never had to do, since you can't understand the concept -- you can bet it's going to be a whole lot longer because I'm bringing your ass to someone else. Walk out of the store with your things if you want. Hell, I wouldn't even mind if you got physically aggressive with me. I'd love to see you get arrested in front of your toddler next time.

I wouldn't have given her service the first time, if anyone starts using the magical 4 letter words on me I turn off my light and get a manager, no one will talk to me like that.
 
TTOG: When you called and asked for the game being released Friday, and I let you know it couldn't be obtained until then and we didn't do preorders with less than a week to release, you accepted the answer and hung up, that was fine.

When you called back 10 minutes later to ask the same question...That was not so fine. Why must you waste my time? Are you assuming I'm incompetent, perhaps another TM will pick up and say "Oh yeah, Legendary is a dumbass, we have 30 available right now!". But no, I just picked up again and reiterated the same speech. Sorry not sorry.

TTOG: When you called about the same game as the other guy, but couldn't quite understand basic logic, asking questions like "What's he earliest I can be in to get it?" And when I tell you the store opens at 8, you respond with "so I should be there at 8?" I mean...Come whenever you want, but the doors will be locked before 8.

You also asked repeatedly if we'd have day one versions available, and didn't seem to quite grasp how I couldn't give you a solid answer since I didn't have the number of preorders available. When I said "it depends on how many people preordered the game" You started asking how many that might be. Pick a number.

If you need the extra content that will inevitably just be DLC in a few weeks, just preorder. This isn't that hard.

And then you called back later and our mobile rep gave you all the same answers. Seriously, what is it about this game that brings out the persistant sort of stupid? THE ANSWER DOESNT CHANGE IF YOU CALL AGAIN.

I'm glad I'm not opening today to deal with you chucklefucks. My threshold for human stupidity is not high enough for in person interaction. This way I can hope it's just a prank call and the world isn't actually this stupid.

Maybe I'm just a bitter as fuck cane-waving 22 year old that's jealous I can't be having fun but holy fucking shit what is WRONG with you all? You're all maybe in the 13-15 yr old range you KNOW what you're doing. You don't just go into the costumes, put on the shark costumes and start running around the store (with half of you on scotters RIDING THEM IN THE STORE) and throwing yourselves onto the floor to slide wHILE WEARING OUR COSTUMES. And a couple of you took a ball from sporting, like I saw you guys take it out of the packaging and start playing ball. You don't do that shit like holy fuck it's 10pm I just want to clean up and go home. Sorry not sorry for calling the LoD on you guys who then scolded your asses (she was far too nice tho). AP showed up and he was da real mvp giving you guys one hell of a lecture threat then escorting you guys out.

Stay the fuck outta my department you asswads

I wouldn't even have waited for the LOD. I would have told them to leave. This isn't a playground.
 
To that one guest who tried to tip me after I helped escort his wife out into the parking lot. You both reminded me of my parents and how they care for one another, and even if we were were allowed to accept tips or gifts from guests, I would not have. You both were incredibly sweet and I look forward to helping you again when you visit our location again.

Seriously though, these two were adorable. Both had to be in their late seventies at least, and they were just so damn nice. It was such a breath of fresh air.
 
TTOG: don't tell me when I should my light on. There was an extra TM up at GS and it was busy so I covered someone's lunch. I was only there for maybe 20 min.
 
To that guest in electronics, no, we do not sell accessores for flip phones like that dinosaur model you brought in. You'd be hard pressed to find that shit anywhere these days. You can balk at me all you want when I suggest ebay but you're gonna have to deal with it
 
To the group of 16 high school kids who thought they would terrorize our store today...

When you were pushing each other around on the floor having "wheel barrel" races, what I said was, Please stop before someone gets hurt. What I wanted to say was knock that shit off & grow up.

When you climb into the shopping carts & started have cart races, what I said was, Please stop before someone gets hurt. Everyone out of the carts. This is not a playground. What I wanted to say was knock that shit off & grow the hell up.

When you pulled down all the bean bag & disk chairs & set up house down the Domestics aisle, what I said was, Get up & put them away. This is a place of business & not your living room. What I wanted to say was knock that shit off & grow the fuck up.

When you were humping the photo op Bullseye dog & taking videos, what I said was, That's it, you're done here, time for you to go. What I wanted to say was I have had more than enough of your crap today now GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE STORE.

And to the entitled punk that said "just start recording her, she'll back off". You couldn't have been more wrong. I'm not easily intimidated. Every single one of you could have started recording and it wouldn't have stopped me from escorting your sorry asses out the door.

And this is why I feel an instant drop in my good mood at the mere sight of large groups of teenagers
 
To the guest that wouldn't take a hint that I couldn't fix your BOGO problem at the front lanes; You think if I could, I would. " oh they want their money 1st" -No, your holding up my line. However, everyone behind them-kudos for being patient.
