- the customer is NOT always right.
- people are messy, and they have no respect for anything they touch.
- really tall & really short people will always bitch that nothing fits them. go to a specialty store then.
- employees are people too, so don't treat them like they're below you.
- if you're nice, i'll be nice back, if you're a bitch, don't expect me to help you.
- control your children, this isn't a daycare.
- if you come in dressed like a slob, expect to be talked about.
- managers will never get along. someone's always going to bitch. life goes on.
- if nobody is at the register, don't wave your arms at us and yell "hello?!?!" or "can someone help me?!" when there's only two of us in the morning hours, you have to be patient.
- plus, you're not the only one who needs help.
- when it's buy one get one half, and you're buying 4+ pairs, don't try and tell me that you'll save more money if you make multiple transactions. (purchasing the two most expensive together, and then the two cheapest.) the CEOs aren't stupid and know people will cheat & do this anyway, it'll ring out EXACTLY THE SAME in one transaction.
- plus, i've been working here for how long? don't you think i'm used to this sale? don't try and argue with me, you won't win!
- please buy socks. even if it's 90 degrees out. we need 4% of our sales to be accessories to make our goals.
- or buy a backpack, or some foot sprays, you probably smell anyway.
- if i'm holding four or more boxes of shoes, save your questions until i put them down, okay?
- if you need me to get something that's high up in the wall, you might get a shoe box dropped on your head, just saying!
- when we say "we close in five minutes" in a really obnoxious voice to eachother or on our walkie-talkies, it usually means "get the fuck out" to you.
- if you're still in the store when we lock the door, we'll openly talk about you until you feel pressured/angry enough to leave. it's the law.
- i don't have any magical shoe abilities that can help me figure out of your child's shoe fits them. if pushing down on their toes is the only thing you know how to do, it's the only thing i know how to do.
- the foot measures don't work, by the way.
- we have a website that tells you if the shoe you want is located in our store, use it. don't call the store and waste my time.
- don't call the store and ask stupid questions regardless.
- if i have to say "no we don't keep anything in the back" one more time..
- and don't hold up another shoe asking if we have that shoe in the backroom, THERE IS NOTHING BACK THERE! DON'T TRY! WE DON'T HAVE A MAGIC SHOE MACHINE!
