I think everyone should have to work at least 6 months in retail before they get any job. Take a walk in our shoes and you'll never be bitchy to us just because your something crawled up your ass and died.
I usually don't let people get to far with it though. I have a way of reminding them how silly they look. I told a woman the other day if she would rather have the manufacturer ship directly to her home, we could probably arrange it. I had to add, however, that she would have to have an order minimum of at least $250, and be there to receive the package from UPS. *giggle*
She calmed down a bit after that, and conceded to wait till it arrived at the beginning of this week. I promised her that we would call her first thing.
I've thought about losing her slip several times...but no...I'll be good.
You'd think we were wearing a suit with white gloves and polishing silver...
