Retail Sucks!!!
Well, it's been decided for me... I will be planning my exit strategy from Chapters. I will fulfill my obligation to Jen and finish out the year that I've promised her and I will probably even do next Christmas as well. I just don't have the passion or the patience. Without the passion for books that I have for cinema, I just won't put up with the bullshit of the general public. It was the beaaatch in line for the Second Floor Information Desk Till that decided it for me.
Beaaatch: "Why don't you put someone on another till here!!" (In an impatient huffy tone mind you)
Diana (one of the other managers): "We only have the one till at this desk."
Me: "The line up downstairs has 7 cashiers handling it. It does move a lot quicker."
Beaaatch: "It still too slow, why didn't you plan better for the busiest day of the year and have a second till installed up here."
Me (in my head): "Well if you had planned better you would have shopped last week and avoided this long line-up on how you said 'the busiest day of the year!"
Me (continuing to rant in my head): "You f***ing cow, we would only use the till once maybe twice a year to cater to stupid f***ing people like you! Give me all of your books and get the f*** out of the store, we don't need your f***ing money!!"
Me (out loud): "I'm sorry it just wasn't possible to install a second till at this desk."
Beaaatch: "Likely story, harrumph" (Yes she actually made the sound!!).
Me (as I walk away and in my head): "F*** YOU!!! :-)"
That was the one that pushed me over the edge, the rest had similar complaints though. How come the lines are so long, Why don't you have more cashiers, etc. etc. etc.
In response to those questions, Well it is the busiest day for retail of the entire f***ing year, and as for #2, well all of our tills are operating and have cashiers at them, if you would like me to pull a few more tills with cashiers out of my ass, you'll be sorely disappointed because my desire to bend over backwards to help you has run screaming from the store so F*** YOU!!!
There, that's better... I'm going to sit and watch some ultra-violent movie, maybe play some Quake 3.
