Hi, I'm you, but slightly more dead inside.

[communal-dogs]

I fucking hate my job.

"Sorry I didn't show up to work on my day off, I accidentally overdosed on cold medicine" being framed as "YOU RUINED MY HALF DAY!!!" is the most American thing ever.

"Do you have a CVS card?"

Customer: "Nope!"

Me: "That's alright!" *starts scanning items*

Customer: "..."

Me: "..."

Customer: "I HAVE A PHONE NUMBER THOUGH!"

Me: *looks into the camera like I'm on the office*

[communal-dogs]

Welcome to CVS,

We STILL aren't Wallgreens. Stop asking.

[communal-dogs]

No, Dr. Frankenstein.

We can't "take your word for it" and accept a random pair of rusty scissors as a return.

I don't have time to get my tetanus shot, thanks.

Peter and Scott bonding over a mutual love of engineering and chemistry... but also over the obscure bug facts they randomly text each other back and forth.

My manager: "Can you come in early today?"

Me, smacking my gum while walking to the bus stop as slowly as possible: yea sure.

Tony's death scene, but Cap is there. As Tony is dying, Steve goes "Damn it Stark, don't die on us!"

And with his last breath, Tony says "language."

[communal-dogs]

First of all,

Don't ask me what I'd recommend. We're a pharmacy, not a bar.

[communal-dogs]

No, ma'am.

It is NOT unfair that you need a CVS card to get discounts at CVS.

Your inability to read the tags is NOT on me. Do you want the cough drops or not?

[communal-dogs]

Listen, lady.

It isn't my fault I'm out of cash. Why not blame Kyle, who had me break a $100 for a box of condoms and a monster?

[communal-dogs]

A man yelled at me today because "he wanted to keep his dimes"

I'm just trying to help you make change, sir. There's a line.

Do you have $2.85 or not?

Headcanon:

Peter won't kill ANY spiders in their apartment, and as much as MJ makes fun of him for it, she's gotten used to just holding the door open for him as he carries every single spider he finds inside carefully outside to safety.

He refuses to hurt them and won't let her kill them either, because, in his words: "They're kinda my people! It would just feel wrong!!"

Pet Peeve #35

When they try to return an item from a completely different store.

“I would like to return this shirt.”

*hands me a Hot Topic bag with receipt*

Me- “oh. Is this from Hot Topic!?”

“Yes. Its too small. I need to return it.”

Me- “Sir, this is Spencers Gifts. Hot Topic is on the other side of the mall.”

“……so you can’t give me my money back?”

Me-“no… But they can…. At Hot Topic.”

“Isnt this basically the same store?”

Me-“…..no.”

*he snatches his bag off the counter and grumbles under his breath.*

Me-

People keep trying to give me their fucking Walgreens card. Our store says "CVS" in big red letters outside. Learn to read before coming back, please.

PSA

If you are a part of a line that includes 20 or more people, and there is one cashier on staff, it is not an appropriate time to yell at the cashier.

If you are having a bad day and a price that your cashier cannot control is not to your liking, it is not an appropriate time to yell at the cashier.

If your cashier appears to be flustered and messes something up, it is not an appropriate time to yell at the cashier.

It never is and never will be an appropriate time to yell at the cashier.

[retail-truestory]

If a customer ever belittles you, curses at you, screams at you, or does anything that actually makes you feel like you’re about to cry or lose it. Just walk away.

Grab a coworker or manager. (Preferably manager.) And just leave for a few minutes for yourself. Let them handle it. You do not deserve it. Do what’s best for you. PLEASE. This has been a Retail PSA.

[communal-dogs]

lol ok except I'm scared I'll get in trouble if I do anything that's ok for me lmao

[nonbinaryrainbow]

Please be nice to cashiers. It’s not their fault that the price is wrong, it’s not their fault that the item isn’t scanning, it’s not their fault that the store charges 5 cents for bags, it’s not their fault they have to ask you a few questions during your transaction, it’s not their fault that the line was long, it’s not their fault that your item was sold out, it’s not their fault that the bag ripped, it’s not their fault that when trying to bag your things nicely allowing the handles to still have function that the bag wasn’t exploding full, it’s not their fault the store is busy, it’s not their fault. Please be nice to cashiers.

[communal-dogs]

PLEASE

[spritenick]

Every person who has ever cashiered retail understands.
