I have accomplished nothing this week. I had a weekend off from work and started off by staring at job postings for about an hour, saw how crappy the pay rates were then proceeded to just play Baldur’s Gate 3 for the rest of the weekend.

Downloaded hinge, now I feel like I’m playing a dating simulator.

I love it when an interviewer says that it will take a month to decide on hiring you then five hours later you get an email saying they’re not interested in you, but the job is still listed on the website.

C4 skittles energy drink just tastes like someone grabbed a handful of every flavor of skittles and blended them into a drink…

I need to stop drinking energy drinks but how am I supposed to stay awake and feel motivated?

Today’s thoughts:

Thinking about becoming a stripper

Asks to not be scheduled for two days at work. Gets excommunicated from work for the whole week.

Things I learned while working retail:

Don’t make eye contact with anyone

The customer is never right

No one knows how to read

People like to move sale signs to benefit themselves

No one knows how to communicate

Customers do not know what they want

People will follow you around the store before they decide to ask you a question

Coupons don’t work on anything

People are really weird

The backroom isn’t some mythical place that will just spawn the product you want if it’s not on the shelf

The backroom is where employees go to cry

Your dreams will die

Anything passes as a support animal (even a parrot)

Yes, someone will pee on the floor

Mentally, I’m still asleep snuggling with my cats.

I love how customers complain that employees don’t know everything about the products they have in store. We are not all-knowing gods. We can’t help you, if you don’t even know what you’re looking for. How the hell are we supposed to know? We can’t read your mind.

What’s your villain story?

Me: Have you worked retail before?

[marzipanhoney]

Can you buy happiness in bulk? Asking for a friend.

Some lady took her earring off to see if the sharp pin part would go through Sherpa fabric. It went through. I don’t know about you but that’s on the same level as trying on swimsuit bottoms and not leaving your undergarments on.

Had a dream I was excommunicated from the church because I drew pentagrams on the church floor with a glue stick.

When you’re so tired you accidentally throw a pad in the toilet and not the trashcan then have to fish it out with your bare hands.

Me while playing Elden Ring:

I just keep dying and dying and dying and dying

[marzipanhoney]

Today, this lady told me “did you even want to come to work today?” Because she didn’t like any of my answers to her questions concerning the prices of her fabrics.

I learned the last time if I don’t say anything they get angrier so I just said “maybe, I don’t know?” While I’m thinking it has only been an hour and a half into my shift and I have to deal with you right now like what do you want from me? I can’t help it your fabric isn’t clearance even though you want it to be.

She responds with “well that’s not good since your around customers right now.” In a really bitchy tone.

I held in my tears while I cut her crap fabric then she left with these parting words, “ I hope you feel like working the rest of the day.”

Afterwards, I proceeded to cry in the back room. I’m so emotionally drained, it’s not even funny.
