damn tissues
anyways, we have a two day sale this week, sunday and monday. but it was only for 3 items. one of them was our brand of kleenex, 2/$1.00.
we had gotten at least 15 cases in for it, and all were gone by the time i got in monday( 230), we weren't doing any substitutions or rain checks because of the 2 day sale price.
so i got this gem
me:
oh: old hag
of: old fart
o.h. comes to find me and is looking for the tissues, this was at least 2 hours after they had sold out. i go over with her to look and boom, they're gone. she asks what im going to do...i told her per managers orders no rain checks and no substitutions, i told her that they had been flying off the shelves (almost literally)
o.h.: well what am i going to do? im here on the 2nd day and you're out
me: i repeat that i cannot substitute or write a rain check per manager
o.h. asks for manager but hes gone (of course) and i tell her it was just me in charge for the night
o.h.: well im not leaving til this is validated
o.f. shows up: this flyer is false advertising (pointing to tissues)
me: give the same schpeel( how is it spelled?) about the damned tissues. at least he wasnt giving me attitude and left it at that.
o.h. still isnt giving up on the tissues and i cave in to giving her a rain check. shes asks for manager again, and again i tell her its me, managers gone. she gave the whole im here its only the second day speech, but lady it was 110 count tissues for 50 cents and everyone was buying the limit of 8 at a time. you shouldve gotten there earlier, or if you had been nicer to me i would've given you the rain check much earlier
she left and another customer came up to me asking about it, be she was cool about the situation, and then i had remembered a woman had tried to buy 10 earlier and there were actually 2 or 3 sitting behind the registers. so i gave them to the nice customer, making sure old hag was gone and not going to bite my head off. i was scared of this little old lady, had a nasty attitude and my c.w. agreed. she says shes coming in tomorrow morning to get them (if we even get them in delivery, which we probably wont)
converter boxes
i never realized how many people dont have cable and still have the analog/ rabbit ears. we have another 2 day sale on those. on sale for $40 and theres the $40 government coupon so its like getting it free. we've been out forever and now everones looking for them. i bet there will be people on the day it converts to digital and people will be sitting there going
and demand for them haa
