Black Friday...There's no other day like it. Working in retail for the past 3 Black Fridays has been an experience in itself. You would be surprised by the words that come out of some people's mouths at 3:45 in the morning. But what do we think as Black Friday workers when we hear it all? You can only imagine! So, with the help of my coworkers, we came up with a list of things NOT to say to us. Ps. I hope you can sense my sarcasm.
"Are you hiding any other product in the back?"
Yes I am purposely hiding it ALL from you.
"This doesn't have a price tag does that mean it's free?"
Because I have never heard that joke before!
"Are you sure you checked everywhere? Can you check again? What about the back?"
Do you want my manager to check too?
"So what's the price with the discount?"
Ah, yes. The "human calculator" is in my job description I forgot.
"How long will this sale be going on?"
It's Black FRIDAY. Friday is one day of the week.
"If I put this on hold can I come back 4 weeks from Tuesday and still get the same discount as today?"
Whatever floats your boat, SUSAN.
"So I'm shopping for my niece's birthday in April, can I return it then if it's too small?"
Love the effort though!
"Darn it, I thought your sale would be better than this."
Yes I came up with the sale myself, thank you.
"What about the mannequin? What size are they wearing?"
Time to strip the mannequin naked!
"You must be tired!"
I sleep for the following 12 hours after my shift so yes you could say that.
