So i'm walking around the floor when a customer comes up to me and tells me of a weird smell coming from the magazine area. So I go to the area, and I get a whiff of what smells like rotting dead fish. I manage to pinpoint the smell to this one woman sitting on one of the chairs.
So, I go and tell the SM about this. SM decides that unless the woman isn't doing anything wrong, we have no reason to kick her out. So I field any more complaints to the SM.
Well, she stays in the store for 2 hours. I completely avoid the area, as does the rest of the staff. As do many of the customers, whom also complain of the stench.
Now here is the stomach turner:
One of the other guys is going to the backroom, when he sees the woman start to leave. She stands up, and gives a view of her butt area.
I won't say "good view," but he sees a big brown/yellow stain where her asscrack should be positioned on the white pair of pants. She was sitting on possibly shit-loaded pants and undergarments, or has really bad hygiene.
Yes, let that image sink into your mind folks. I'll wait.
Burned good enough into your mind for you? Let's continue.
So the guy just blankly comes back to the cashier area, puts down the stack of shelves he was carrying to the backroom, and tells me and LP guy about the stinky lady. We both manage to get a quick glance at the woman, and sure enough, we see it too. LP guy goes to look at the chair, and the stench was still prevelent, and.....well, I think you get the picture.
When we tell the SM, she orders that the chair be immediately disposed of in the dumpster (and the kicker is that it was a 4 month old chair, partially broken in), and that woman is hereby retroactively banned from the store.
The funny part is that the guys (4 of them) argued who was tasked to "help" dump the chair. LP pulled rank, Manga guy only agreed if he was issued a Haz-Mat Suit and got hazard pay, and the other two guys eventually did the job after we unloaded a whole bottle of hand sanitizer onto the chair to at least kill the smell. We also had to destroy any magazine she touched and those that were on it's sides 3 issues deep and behind it 2 issues deep. All told, we destroyed 48 magazines because of fears of possible fecal contamination.
