Customer came in to return a perfume.

- without the box aka no barcode or sku

- with a receipt for two lotions

I finally found the transaction via her credit card and a barcode from a box I ran to grab, and it was long past the thirty day return policy (which is WITH RECEIPT only anyway, so I was already trying to stretch/break policy for her) so could only do it as an exchange, but could apply it toward anything in the store. She was NOT happy with me, because she kept going off about how awful our perfumes all are and how this had been our last chance to redeem ourselves but we'd failed. And she's PISSED that it's exchange only and going off about how many of our perfumes she's tried and they're ALL awful.

And I'm like look I CANT give u a refund it's been over thirty days and there's no receipt (cue her waving the receipt for the LOTIONS in my face again) so I can't give a refund, only an exchange. Sighing and having a go at me and trying to guilt me about how long the line was isn't going to change anything.

Like I get that it sucks but also like. If you've been having bad experiences with our perfumes either stop buying them or keep the receipt??!

Reminder for when he “saves” it. He was the one who wanted this, and now he gets to be the hero and win favour with young constituents. Don’t give him the credit for fixing his own problem.

Okay so I got Rednote because I heard about the whole migration thing and I never bothered to sign up before, and the cultural exchange has just been really fascinating

My city has incredibly dangerous road conditions this weekend. Due to extremely slippery icey roads and pavements and parking lots, emergency vehicles weren't even able to safely get to some people apparently. An ambulance got in a ditch.

Customers were falling in the parking lot and getting injured and mall security was walking around manually dumping salt and sand around the entire place and it was still dangerous.

So tell me why customers were coming in and short/rude with US. No, they weren't blaming us for the weather but they were taking out their bad moods on us. Which pissed us all the fuck off because guess what Karen WE have to be here but YOU don't so stay the fuck home like the local police have been begging ppl to do because emergency services are overwhelmed. Like WE should be mad at YOU not the other way around so ffs don't take ur bad mood out on us because some of us were trying to figure out how tf to get home because not all of us have cars. Buses got canceled and "Lift" and "Over" app prices were skyrocketed (fair enough they'd be taking a huge risk). A couple of us were originally getting a ride home from a friend, but mine couldn't safely leave their driveway and my coworkers roommate wasn't gonna risk it either.

I had to walk home. Two hours. In the slippery conditions. In the dark. Fucked up my back even more (was already bad) and now my foot too.

I stg if any customers r rude today I'm going tf OFF at them 😅😭 they could be at home but they CHOOSE to do non essential shopping and then be a bitch abt it to the ppl who have no choice. Fuck customers and fuck this job and fuck the shitty ppl in this g*dforsaken red-ass town

Look, I know the spiel is annoying, I know IM being annoying. I know u want to shop in peace but I'm required to greet u and give y the spiel within 60 seconds of you entering the store for the sake of my job so pls just let me say my bullshit and then I can leave u alone so u can shop normally 😭

Trust me when I say I hate it even more than u do because I have to do it OVER AND OVER. Im only doing it cause the SM is within spying distance and i don't want to get in trouble again for not doing it 😭

In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.

The everest chronicles

[allthestuffandeverything]

A while back my pharmacist saw my deadname on my profile and accidentially called it out, he corrected and deleted my deadname from the system so only my preferred name shows up now. There was a crowd of people behind me, so as he hands over the pills he apologized, in equal tone and volume as when he called my deadname and lied saying it's been a long day and he didn't mean to call out -his own- name. I quietly told him it was fine and he didn't need to do that for my sake.

His response: "No, it's my name now."

I went to the pharmacist yesterday, his nametag is my deadname. He informed me he's immigrating and in the process he's changed his first name to my deadname to have an English sounding name. That's why he's now able to get a reprint of his nametag to be my deadname. And repeated, with the intense seriousness of someone who is going to die on this hill: "It's mine now. Not yours. I'm taking." His tone indicated that decision is final.

Bro literally deadnamed me once, and has committed to flat out stealing my deadname. It's his now. Legally. Officially. I over heard his co-workers call him by the name.

Yes! I do this and have had pretty good success with it. Idk the proper terms but I usually call it "toning down" where I'll say like "yikes thats kind of rude" instead of "hey that's a slur" or "that's a bigoted question". Cause they don't get as defensive so theyre more able to go oh wait yeah that's kind of not cool, without feeling the need to justify/defend themselves as much

Listen, I'm having fun playing with the ultra patriotic voice, but after a couple years in blue-collar landscaping jobs, you really do need to phrase things like that.

"I'm pretty sure that fella ain't here legally."

"Well, that ain't your business Chip, it's his."

They hate being preached to. If you pull out words like 'gender wage gap' they'll tell you you're brainwashed by the far left media.

"He's one of them transgenders."

"He got freedoms too, Jimmy."

i still give it above even odds that the guy they caught is just a scapegoat because the NYPD didnt want to drag the manhunt over the holidays, or worse (for their image), call it quits
