#retail rant

If you ever want to talk for days about how shitty retail customers are, girl, get at me! The food industry was awful, absolutely awful I thought that was the worst it could get. I thought “Okay, I am going to retail, the prices are set, the merchandise is completely out of my control so buy what you like, don’t buy what you don’t exchange something broken. That seems easy, right? ” Boy was I fucking wrong. 

 I never thought I would hate coupons so much in my entire life. “Why can’t I use this coupon I found on a random website?” “What do you mean I can’t use this 4-month expired coupon?!” I have heard over and over again by the older generations about how ‘milinieals’ are so rude and have no respect. Make a 40+ woman wait in line for 5 extra minutes because you are busy and short staffed, then you will see who absolutely has no respect.

 How fucking entitled people feel. The mindset that if they speak louder and ruder to me that I will give them what they want. When they ask for a manager (me) and I confirm policy, they threaten to call corporate. Corporate not sticking to their on policy because they are terrified to lose a customer and bad publicity I feel as though this “customer is always right” mentality needs to just fucking stop. This is our store, this is our policy. You are not a special snowflake. You will be treated with respect and you will give respect. You do not get special treatment. Your kindness will be rewarded with excellent customer service, while your shitty behavior will leave you salty as you leave.
