I was only rude to one person today!

I deserve a high five!  LOL.

This one man wanted to haggle over prices, and I was over it.  He told me to come look at the sign (he was arguing over wording).  I said, "No, I'm not going to look at the sign, I'm just going to fix it for you." 

At least he got what he wanted. 

Overall, people were really nice (they usually are, there's just so MANY) but I'm SO glad it's over.

    I know.  I'm proud for you!  I am proud of myself, too.

    I managed to not be rude to anyone but it was really difficult.

    Were you working or shopping?  I thought I was just about the only retail girl around here!

    I worked! I'm on the inventory team for a bookstore and was in at 7am since I'm trained all over our store, minus the cafe. I wont touch the cafe with a 10 foot pole.

    That's like me refusing to go into the ladies clothing section.  I DON'T DO ladies clothes, shoes, accessories, etc...pretty much anything that's strictly women, lol.

    The only time I go over there is to get water because the cheapskates I work for don't provide drinking water in the breakroom.

    Sidenote- DH works retail too. Same store, different location but he's a manager. I worked 7-2 and he worked 3-hasn't left yet. We both got to deal with crazies today! Hooray!

    I worked retail for 8 years so I can sympathize! (Is that spelled right? It doesn't look right.)

    Your spelling is spot on, my dear.

    I think everyone should work retail in their life.  Unless they are just a naturally courteous person, I guess...

    I worked for a company who had a "bend over and take it" philosophy. So I think that was a great experience. It helped prepare me for the "bend over and take it" job I have now!

    Me too!  And I'm following you into the teaching field (someday here soon, at least) so I guess I'm getting good training.
