Ok....just as a reminder I work for a company who manufactures and sells underwear. I happen to work in one of their retail outlet stores in an outlet mall here in WI. Here are a couple stories from yesterday:
The man with style....numbers
I had an older gentleman come in yesterday...not really sucky...just a new one for me. The following conversation ensued:
OG: Old Guy
ME:
OG: Im looking for style Number 1137
ME:
suuure...I can try to help you find that sir but Im going to need more info. Are you looking for activewear, underwear, t-shirts, boxers...?
OG: Well they underwear
ME: Ok..briefs, midways, boxer briefs, poco briefs....?
OG: well the underwear I normally wear...how many different types can there be?
ME:
A lot
To make a long story short I went through asking him about the fabric he wanted, the waistband he wanted, the fly style he wanted (yes there ARE different fly styles), and finally narrowed it down to what he wanted and showed him where they were.
OG: Your good.....
ME:
"Are you Perverts?"
Not long after the gentleman came in, a lady came in and the following ensued:
CL: Crazy Lady
ME: Again...
CL: I want to speak to a manager immediately!
ME: Well, your in luck cause you got me
CL: I just wanted to know are all of you who work here perverts?!
ME:
Excuse me?! (thinking "depends on who you ask...")
CL: ARE......YOU....PERVERTS?
ME: uhmm....no...... (gets interrupted)
CL: ANYONE who works for this company is perverts...Ill have you know that I have been making MY OWN underwear for 50 years out of feedsacks and yarn.
ME: So why are you here? (getting a little ticked off here by this point...dont take kindly to being called a pervert)
CL: Well...I AM FAMOUS for my boycott of you companies who spread perversion through this land and I wanted to let you know that my 50 year boycott of your companies is continuing.
Lady then leaves...another customer at the register not 10 feet away says "who was that?" I replied "no clue...I was hoping you would...apparently shes famous" customer says..."yeah...apparantly a famous nutjob" Customer leaves and comes back laughing so hard he is crying...apparently he was down in the Coach Outlet and she went in their screaming about how she is boycotting their company because they kill innocent "leathermongers" apparently leathermongers are little rat like creatures grown to farm leather from........
