Yes...please use all the paper you want...the more you use, the more we make, the more trees we grow...you all do realize that saving and recycling paper doesn't do shit for the environment...right?

nothing like getting co-opted into doing some BS job b/c another department and their customer are so fucking disorganized they cant do shit for themselves. good thing im getting paid for this and am taking my sweet ass time doing it.

Yay for fixing shit circuit designs from china. Best part is that the same company who had me bid in the first place knowing they would go to China is now having me fix it because they opted for fast and not good, so the sit doesn't even work right.


Feels good to rape the fuck out of them by doubling my hourly rate and telling them it's is because I am being asked to "expedite" the project... HA! thanks for the early vacation this year!!

So this girl comes in to my store earlier and buys a penis extender. When she gets up to the counter to pay she actually reads aloud the sign to me that says, "NO RETURNS, NO EXCHANGES, NO EXCEPTIONS". I say yes, that's right. I had a feeling she didn't know exactly what she was buying, but the product clearly says what it is on the package. I shouldn't have to assume my customers are illiterate morons (which they apparently are) and I wanted the sale.

An hour later her boyfriend calls the store. He wasn't even in the store when she bought it. He says she bought the wrong thing and wants to return it because she thought it was a dildo. I say no we don't take any returns or exchanges for hygiene reasons. He says they never opened the package and I calmly explain that the packages can be easily resealed and we want our customers to know that the product that they are buying is perfectly clean and has not been in anyone else's possession. I almost asked him to read what the package said back to me, ask him if his girlfriend can read, and explain that illiteracy is not a valid excuse to return anything, but I bit my tongue. He demands that I make an exception so I say he can have a discount on something else. This isn't good enough however. He bitches me out then with his face away from the phone tells his girlfriend that I'm annoying and not helpful. I can hear every word of this. So gets back on the phone and demands that I let him speak to a manager. I inform him that the manager will be in tomorrow morning. He says "fine I'll call them and I will exchange this damn thing then!"

Little does he know, I called the manager after this conversation and told him about the ordeal and his nastiness. Oh, did I mention the manager is my boyfriend?

Gotta love retail! If you just took 30 seconds to consider the policy and how you would feel knowing that someone possibly had the toy inside of them before you bought it, you would see the logic behind it!

Silliness. You could always accept the return and offer it up for sale at 50% off.

I'm sure a man would jump at the chance to have a half-priced penis extender that potentially had another man's peni.... uhhm nevermind!

They seriously don't get that even if I clearly explain it. Either they are too dense or too selfish. Most likely both

I'll refer to my thread:

Enough said.

Dear people who can't speak English (very well)
stop pretending you don't know five words of english when I call and ask nicely that you fill out your paperwork which is mandatory. It's the law. If you can't read those three words printed out on the sheet of paper I keep leaving at your door explaining it takes five minutes to do your damn census, then CALL THE HILITED FUCKING PHONE NUMBER AND TALK TO THEM IN WHATEVER LANGUAGE YOU WANT TO FFS.
Pretending you barely speak english to get out of filling the thing out just to have me call back, much less polite, pretending to be my manager in a really pissed off tone to find you speak PERFECT FUCKING ENGLISH LIKE I KNEW YOU DID is just going to make me PISS ON YOUR FUCKING WINDSHIELD OMG RABAA RABBA RABBA

I'm good now. I just hate the 'derr me speak no english' crap.

Working at a storage facility I get surprisingly similar calls. But instead they ask what my biggest unit is.

All about context, lol.

Oh jeez. They don't even try to block their called ID anymore. The last call I got, the kid said "Hi... uh... I bought one of your dildos, but it got stuck in my friends ass... what should we do?" I told them to push it in further. The kid was like, "Wait WHAT?" and never called back.

bahahahahahahahahaha.
I have so much respect for you
You manage very well at a job a lot of people couldn't handle - and the stories you bring back are awesome! Keep sharing

So I have a new job, and I love it.... for the most part.

The basics are I work in a warehouse filled with items and sell these online through Craigslist and/or eBay. I am for the most part my own boss and I have a couple of helpers who work under me. Theoretically, I answer to one main person, the head of the parent company (I'll call him "Don"). There are two other people who I can go to for minor supervisory things (money and general maintenance at the warehouse), but otherwise, I'm in charger.

The biggest promise on getting this job was I would not, "have someone hovering over me all shift breathing down my neck". Lo and behold, what happened? Enter "Glen", a real nimrod who is now being an annoying buttinski. He's not my boss in any way, shape, or form, yet he keeps showing up at the warehouse to have "brainstorming pow-wows" and generally drive me nuts. I know he means well and he thinks he's helping, but what he's telling me what "Don" is telling me are two completely different things. This irritates me.

One suggestion was for me to make spare keys for the warehouse for these temp helpers. Uh, no, because if they decide to help themselves to things, it's my ass on the hot seat. They don't NEED to be there when I'm not. Besides, only 3 people have keys there. Me, "Don", and a maintenance guy.

It's frustrating.

Just a few select words "What's wrong with you?" or "Are you ok?". Ever wonder what people would do if you answered them honestly? LOL

EVERYTHING



my gripe for today: arguing with dumbshit parents who want to bring their fucking 8 year olds into fucking porn shops. NO. JUST. NO.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one on the planet who thinks it is truly atrocious that people try to do this, then argue with me when I tell them no.

Are you KIDDING me that someone tried to do that? What?!

This happens often. Not as much as the other shop I worked at, but it should NEVER happen. It infuriates me. The fact that I'm still sick and working 50 hours a weeks adds to the unpleasantness.

Cough on them LOL

No it never should. Ok is there not signs saying 18+? My god how horrifying this must be for the child, or even worse, if it isn't.
