So we had a good retail feels thread the other day. It was comfy and I'd like to get another one going.


>worked in ghetto area in front of a hospital for four years.
>was a mcfattyplace job but worked hard and got to management quick.
>get burned out four years in.
>walked to the retail place next door after work one night to get beer after getting screamed at by nigger customers and managing nigger employees.
>two of them tried to fight at work that night.
>had to defuse a fight between two niggers
>female nigger with Queen complex screamed at male nigger that he couldn't hit her
>bitch please no, he will hit you and I don't get paid enough
>scream at bitch to go home for the day.
>yell at man to goto the back, plan to send him home in five minutes so they don't fight in front of the store.
>pay cash to other employees to work the closing shift because I just sent home my two fucking closers.
>finally fucking done and can still buy beer.
>need alcohol please.
>cashier rings up my beer and tells me that the nigger working the third shift finally got fired.
>no call no showed five separate occasions and tonight was the final straw.
>think how easy this job might be and I can climb the chain again.
>take that job the lazy bitch lost.

And that is how I got into retail. Ive written several stories to get the thread started.


Fuck you robot!!!

>first night at new retail job.
>took a decent pay cut but fuck it I can climb that damn ladder again.
>have an awesome boss who is an old lady German immigrant. Shes from the god damn war. Fucking great lady that didn't take shit from anyone
>legit afraid of her.
>nigger comes in and buys a gift card for 500$

Most of my stories will involve niggers but just remember not all niggers are black.

>no refunds on gift cards man, I'm sorry
>chimp out ensues
>call manager because fuck it I don't have to handle this shit anymore. I'm not the boss.
>little old German lady that is hard as boiled leather comes up while nigger is screaming at me.
>screams at me why am I bothering her.
>I feel fear from the violence in her voice.
>tell her what's going on.
>she tells the nigger there is no return on gift cards and turns around and goes back to the stockroom.
>nigger is baffled, I can see it on his face. He walks out calmly like a scolded dog.
>enjoy the rest of night shift stocking and people buying shit.


I don't know why he was so fucking mad. It says on the receipt we don't return gift cards and we had two huge signs ON the gift card rack. Take responsibility for your God damn purchases people it's not my fault you bought the wrong damn thing.

This is the time where I learned to hate foodstamps. Working in fast food i didn't really know how many niggers have those fucking cards. Also how they blatantly waste that free food money. OK so, only the occasional one would try to buy food with it in the drive thru and saying my card reader was broken and they should get an apple pie for free.

>it's about 3 months in and I've seen people buy stuff with foodstamps by now
>usually stupid shit that I wouldn't be buying when i made more money at my old job let alone after a pay cut.
>but hey, happiness over money right?

>at this point I'm just throwing shit into a trash bag in anger
>they are completely oblivious which makes my anger rise
>keeps going and the grand total

>guy slides food stamp card and spends all his two hundred dollars.
>I'm at the threshold. I'm about to transform.
>women slides her foodstamps card and spends 50$ out of 800$.
>khorne denies me as I stare in bewilderment as they casually leave like what happened is normal.

They were not black this time btw.

You know I'm not going to say 'no', right? Why the fuck are you even bothering?

>old people
For some reason people assume that teenagers are the bad customers, but I rarely have problems with them.
It's the 65+ crowd who take me right up to the brink of homicide. They just don't understand how the world works anymore, and they're condescending cunts about everything.

This happens at least three times a week.

>someone tries to pay with a $100 bill at 7 am and flips shit when you tell them you don't have change and can't take it
Regardless of the time of day, if you've ever paid for fast food with a hundred dollar bill I sincerely hope you get shot in the face.

>people who think having a small child absolves them from basic human decency, and leave a massive mess at the table

>construction workers who tramp mud over EVERYTHING and pay with noticeably wet bills

>"Is this for here or to go?"
>"Yes"

>customers always assume that the workers fucked up
>in reality, upwards of 90% of issues are caused by the customer not understanding what they're ordering

>deaf little old ladies who have two volumes: 'mumble, and shout at the top of their lungs
>"Can I have a name for that order?"
>*mumble*
>"I'm sorry, ma'am, I couldn't catch that."
>*mumble*
>"I'm sorry ma-"
>"MARTHA"
And the cunts usually stand like six feet back from the counter.

retail team lead here, I hate all of you. I especially hate my manager who keeps hiring hot as fuck eighteen year olds that I'm not allowed to sleep with. I treat all female employees as distantly as possible and they're still all over my dick. this shit is going to give me a stroke.

Bitch please you expect me to close the store early because you dont feel good?
Im required by corporate rules to have at least two employees in the store.
>>
>>28198629
my store isn't required to do that and thank god. the only time I get to actually slack off is when I'm alone. if any other workers are in the store then I have to bust ass and stay busy or I'll be setting a bad example.

I'm basically an underpaid ASM, so I can do whatever the fuck I want and know how to do everything aside from most of the back end paperwork. It also helps that I know I'd have to outright steal to get fired. I do bank runs, I know all of the manager tricks to make registers pay out for bullshit they shouldn't be paying out for and have it still square out at the end of the day, I have a ton of sway over scheduling, I do the drawer counts and the safe counts, and it's to the point where the manager doesn't know how to do the front end stuff anymore because I make sure it's all just taken care of. It kills me that I'm not paid more.
