A one-shot collection full of dark humour, sarcasm, and struggles of people working retail.
From watching shop-lifters walk out the doors to customers pulling out money from their boobs and calling it 'pockets'.
All the nasty, harsh reality, and t...
Silently arranging the kinder eggs as asked by my Manager.
*Customer approaches from behind*
Customer: "Hi there!"
Me:*slightly startled by the high pitched greeting*
"Hi there, how can I help you?"
*flashes a very 'customer-service-esque' smile*
Customer: "I've been going around the store for 30 minutes looking for kinder eggs and I couldn't see any around. I just want to ask you if you do have any before I leave and go to a different store."

Me:*sees 2 two stacks of Kinder Eggs in each till, turns around to see more behind me, and a shit more ton CLEARLY visible from where we're standing in the snack aisle. Turns back to look at the customer, obviously dumbfounded by what she just said and takes a deep breath.*
Me: "No, we don't sell it here"
Customer: "That's okay! I'll go to another store then."
Me:*turns back to what I was doing and whispers to self*
Well what the fuck kind of eyes does she have?

One Hour Later. . .
Manager: Hey, so I just got a call today. It's a complaint about you and I just want to know what happened because she's calling you a liar.
Me: You're gonna have to be specific because I've already dealt about 7 of them in the last hour or so.
Manager: She said she asked you about Kinder Eggs earlier if we sell them or not and you told her no but apparently, she saw one as she was exiting the store. She even wanted you fired. What happened? Because when I checked the cameras, you guys seemed to be talking in peace.
Me:*sighs* First of all, she claimed to have looked for those eggs for 30 minutes around the store. We open at 8AM, and she came in the store five minutes after we opened. Second, the kinder eggs, were literally everywhere, it was legit in front of her but she still asked me if we sell them. And lastly, when I told her we don't sell them, I was being sarcastic because I thought she was messing with me. To be honest, I'm surprised she only saw one.
I still work there.
