man I forgot all about that. Mexican dudes around here stay calling half sizes 30. Do you hhaave size 8:30 like its nightime

I work with cellphones and you get some real jerks that think they know everything. Customer: My phone keeps messing up and I don't have insurance but I should be coveredunder warranty. Me: Well your screen is cracked/you have water damage/etc so its not covered under the manufacture warranty Customer: What do you mean.I've never had it near water and the screen cracked on its own. Orly??? Then they have the nerve to get pissy with me bc they are still under contract andthink they should be able to get a brand new phone for like 20 bucks or something. Ignorant expecting to much @!% holes

Indian guy comes up to me

Indian guy: Do you have any hats for running in the winter time
Me: Yeah we have one style, the rest sold out a couple weeks ago
Indian guy: so you think this would be a good hat for running? *picks up an article of clothing
Me: No sir, that's a pair of gloves

Mom comes up to me "I traced my sons shoe on this piece of paper can you help me get a shoe size?"
STUUPIDDDDD MFERRR, SHOES ALL HAVE DIFFERENT SIZES

Then you have the chinese people who mess everything up find a product with a defect on it so they can get $5 off.
YOUR BUYING A SHIRT THAT'S $50 WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA ASK FOR A $5 DISCOUNT

I don't get it, couldn't you just have used that meter that all shoe stores have and make an educated estimate based on the trace?

 

[orangatrang]

Fitting Room Duty FTL.
People come out of their room with 6 articles of clothing, all stanky with their B.O. and they just dump it on you.

Or when the same ol' stanky people try to return clothing that they have obviously worn, all shrunken and stained.

shoes just have a different soles at the bottom so there's no point in recomending her something that may or may not fit

 

[throwedindagame]

I love to try on multiple shoes and not buy any though. The look on the workers faces is priceless.

:After trying on Retro 1s, Jordan 23s, and some running shoes.

FA worker: "Sir, you want me to take any of those to the counter"
Me: "Naw brah im good, im going to Champs"

I have a few stories:
This lady came to me from customer service asking why she had been overcharged. I look for the right price tag and I look at the receipt. She got charged xx.99 for some toy. I look at the price tag on the shelf and it was xx.98.

She was making a big deal over a penny. I gave her the price tag to take to customer service and they gave her that penny back. Me and the chick at Customer Service just looked at each other and

in our mids.

No offense to my Indian people but damn, you guys have a rep of being cheap. I had this one lady follow me for a good 30 min asking what toys we had that were $7-$9. When she finally settled on one she asked "I need 10 of these" and there were only 2 on the shelf

. So I had to spend more time looking up inventory.

I'll post more later,

you go to SUNY?

Yeah it's my third year.

Working at Foot Locker FTL

Customer: Do you guys still have the White/Black retro XIII's in a size 10
Me: Yes actually we do
Customer: Good, you can just ring me up, no need to try it on.
*Brings out the CDP box w/ the X's*
Customer: Damn, that's a big #$% box
Me: It comes with another shoe
Customer: Word? damn what a bargain; how much?
Me: $335.58
Customer: W-T-F?, hell naw n*99@ I just want the damn XIII's...Don't try to force me to buy another shoe I don't want
Me: We can't sell the pack separately; your only alternative is to go half with someone who wants the X's more.
*Nobody wanted the Shadow X's*
Customer: Let me speak with your manager
Me:

FML

Customer #2: Aye, man can I get some fresh G-Niks
Me: What?
Customer #2: G-NIKS!!!
*bewildered look on me face*
Me:

I'm not sure we have those ma'am
Customer #2: White Air Force One!!!!
Me:

Customer #3: Can I get these shoes in a size 9
Me: That pair in your hand is a size 9, try it on.
Customer #3: It fits, you can ring me up
*go to the stock room to look for the right shoe*
Me: It's the only size 9 we have in that shoe
Customer #3: That's okay, do I get a discount on them because they were on display
Me: No, unless there's significant signs of wear or visible stains, marks, or scuffs on the shoe itself
Customer #3: No thank you sir, I just don't like the notion of paying retail price for a display shoe
Me:

("#$%@ outta here man")

 

[isu42]

We have about 300 shoes on display U really think ur gonna get a discount cuz your shoe was on display?
Truth

I work in a mom and pop sporting goods store. We have signs posted with our return policy throughout the store, especially in our clearance section.
Woman: I'd like to return these.
Me: I can do an exchange or store credit. No cash back on clearance items.
Woman: Did your employees tell my husband that?
Me: I don't know, but we have signs posted throughout the store.
Woman: Yeah right like anyone reads signs.
Me:

I just want to ask customers who try to bring things back after 6 months or who get mad at us over our return policy, does every store you buy things from readyou their return policy?
