What Friday Brings

Friday brings out the some of the worst (and when i mean worst, i mean BEST stories) customers ever.

1) 3 Filipino ladies (yes i'm calling them out XD) came in to buy, whatever (i didn't ring them up). The lady buying all the crap made my coworker "wrap" up her purchases in two different bags, and specifically told her which trinket to put on it, as if that mattered. Then one of the ladies with her asked me to get her a phone charm, so i got the one she wanted, then she switched it immediately after i got it for her and made me get a different one. Knowing it's my job, i switch it and give her the other one. She asks me how much and tell her it's only $3 WITHOUT TAX. She gives me $3 and takes the charm away and starts to put it on her phone. and here's where the story begins:

Lady: Where do I put this on?
Me: You put it right here :points:

Lady: Now where is it? : starts taking off her phone cover searching:
Me: On a Razr phone, it's on the side, right here :points again:

Lady: Hmm, I can't find it.
Me: It's right there!

Lady: Where is :still searches: OH, ITS RIGHT THERE

[ me: -________________-]

So she pays be $3 ONLY and starts to put the charm on her phone. I tell her that it'll be $3.26 with tax and she stops, looks at me and gives me a angry look
Lady: You said it was $3
Me: WITHOUT tax....
Lady: :hands back charm: Then i don't want it..
Lady mumbling in Tagalog: This girl is stupid..
Me as lady walks out: I KNOW TAGALOG I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU...

I wish i had said it louder than i did, but i didn't.


2) These two girls about age 9 or 10 came in with their mom and grandma. They were both given $20 to spend in the store. One girl gathered up a bunch of goodies nearly banking out her $20, the other girl only wanted one piece of gum which totals to $.50 (50 cents). The girl who grabbed everything paid and stepped off to the side while her sister paid for her piece of gum. Now, here's where the "fun" begins. The adults didn't want her to pay with the $20 bill since it's only 50 cents. So the grandma gave her 50 cents to pay for her gum. The girl that spent nearly all her 20 starts WHINING about how her sister is getting more money:

Girl: HEYYYY, THAT'S NOT FAIR!
Grandma: What's not fair?

Girl: YOU'RE GIVING HER EXTRA MONEY!
Mom: but it's only 50 cents
Girl: THAT'S NOT FAIR! I WANT THOSE 50 CENTS TOO!

WHAT A BRAT!


3) our 2nd to last customers today was bad (the worst is yet to come). It was a mom with her 2 daughters. They came into the store 10 minutes before closing. They stayed in the store pretty much UNTIL closing (they were in the store even when i closed the doors). Now, i thought kids are bad, but the mom was REALLY bad. She was the reason for the hold up. She was picking up random things that she wanted and ended up not purchasing half of the things she picked up. Her kids were ready to go in 2 minutes, but she took forever to look for stuff FOR HERSELF. Not to mention that when she changed her mind at what to buy it was AT the counter, AND she left all our shit everywhere around the store. It's like what the fuck lady. You're keeping us late here already, the least you could do is be courteous to us!

4) And finally the worst of them all. TWO KIDS. that's right, TWO KIDS about 11 or 12 years old were our last customers of the night. It was about 9:10 when they left....and they got in 10 minutes before the store closed. THAT MEANS THEY WERE SHOPPING AROUND FOR 20 MINUTES. And to make it worse, they came into the store earlier that night around 8, and didn't buy anything, why the fuck would you come in 10 minutes before closing and buy something 10 minutes AFTER we close, when you were in the store earlier?

Those little punks thought they were so slick and shit too. Who the fuck are they who are 10 years younger than me to think they can talk down to us? with their snotty little attitudes and shit.

Kids are CRAZY~

This little girl who could have been about the age of 10 comes in about 10 minutes before mall closing and asked us if her family had come in to the store to buy a rolling backpack. We tell her someone came in asking about them, but didnt buy one.

She looks at us for a minute (or so, it felt like forever), and then just stood there in front of the counter for awhile without saying anything and it's like, what the hell kid? What the hell are you staring at, what are you thinking?!

I had no idea what to say, so i turned to my coworker and was like "so this is how much cash we made huh?" LOL, trying to change the subject.
Once i said that the little girl started walking away from the counter, but didn't leave the store yet. She starts looking around within the 8 minutes we have left before closing. After awhile she ends up close to behind the counter where one of the display cases are. At this point i'm away from the counter cleaning up a bit and when i look back, shes peaking behind the counter for god knows what. O______O

Im all thinking, SERIOUSLY MAN, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GIRL??
When she sees me looking at her, she strikes up a bit scared with a stupid smirk on her face that read "OHHHH YOU CAUGHT ME!!"

Now there's 4 minutes left, and she ends up leaving. I wanted to close the store immediately so she wouldnt come back in (HAHA) but can't. When it was time to close, i see her standing out there and close the doors immediately hoping she doesnt want to come back in ><

I swear, this kid was freaking crazy or something O___O

It's been awhile...

since i've seen this one guy who works at the mall too. (strange for a first post, but whatever).

He'd always pass by our store on purpose just to see us girls working and try to catch our attention just so we can say hi to him.

It's been awhile since i last saw him and frankily, he's the last person i'd want to see while working haha~
I think the last time i saw him pass by was before summer vacation started (yeah, its been that long) and i had forgotten about him. But since the store was dead today i was staring out into the mall and low and behold there he goes passing by our store giving me that crazy wave of his >_< WHY ME?!!
