#retail job

Every. Single. Day.

'Hello, can I help you?'

'Black jeans 30/32'

THAT'S NOT HOW YOU TALK TO PEOPLE IN RETAIL

I love this job, I really do, it's my part time job for like 5 years now and I love working with people, but god they are pain in the ass

Things like hello, please and thank you don't exist to them

Sometimes, when I'm mad, the convo goes like this:

- hello

• i want blue jeans

- hello

• i want blue jeans size 34/30

- hello

AND THEY STILL WON'T SAY IT BACK

I work in an outlet where tourists come, and let me tell you, tourists from certain countries are really the worst😊

But don't worry, my country's people suck too.

Sorry for the rant lol, but I'm pissed

Customers who complain and harass the retail workers about the store’s prices should go fuck themselves. They’re just workers. They don’t set the prices so leave them be

Me at my customer service job

[rositxespinosa]

made my self care list for tomorrow. it includes things I want to make a priority before and after work. a majority of it is pain management related. things like stretching my body, magnesium supplements, ibuprofen, trying my best to have good posture throughout the day, etc.

my body has been sore today, but I recently finished doing some gentle stretching, I took a bath and used Epsom salt, and I will typically take magnesium and vitamin d in the evening to help ease my muscles before bed. oh, and I had my mom help me put icy hot on my neck/shoulder.

working a retail job is very tough, both mentally and physically. it’s hard to be on your feet nearly all day. but I know that there are at least some things I can do to help me feel ok during these shifts, as well as things I can do that will help me recover on my off days. mental health has always been important to me, and it still is. but im working on being consistent with taking care of myself physically as someone who works retail and experiences a lot of body aches.

here’s to making it through this week of work!

after hearing "simply having a wonderful christmas time" by paul mccartney 74 times while working in retail, I came to the conclusion that they shot the wrong beatle

[mirrorama]

estimate! and say you currently still work at your first job, just choose how long you’ve been employed. i also understand there might be some nuance as far as maybe like promotions/transfers/etc etc etc, so feel free to explain things in the tags!

I WANT TO BELIEVE THE WORLD AND PEOPLE ARE GOOD BUT I ALSO WORK RETAIL AND JUST GOT OUT OF A FOOD SERVICE JOB SO ITS LIKE BEING IN A CITY UNDER SEIGE.

People come into my store every day and ask to buy the "SALE" shirts on the mannequins in the window

Like... why?

Fr tho maybe we should start selling them if people want them so bad

*Send me a char you think would wear this shirt and I'll draw them wearing it*

It’s summer at my job, and I’m stuck sorting through the trash.

And answering the questions all the fucking boomers ask.

They tell me that I’m gorgeous and they tell me that I’m worthless,

Another day in customer service.

I’m begging y’all to teach your kids how to count cash. Physical money may be becoming obsolete, but it’s not yet and it’s a life skill they should have until it becomes so. I paid for something with paper money and coins and the poor young teen behind the counter had to call a manager because they were unsure how to count the coins. I don’t blame this kid for not knowing this and I hope any future customers are as understanding.

So please teach your kids how to count physical money, regardless of whether they may never come across it (which I find hard to believe)

Its okay they could call me on a rotary faster than i could explain to them I’m old enough to know what a rotary phone is
