Some Recent Cat Butt Face Sucky Customers

[Enjis]

I can beat even that! I've told this story once before.

When I worked at Macy's in 1999 in the men's department, a little old lady brought back a pair of Dockers from 1978! They were in the original Macy's bag, had all the tags, and the receipt. She said she bought them for her husband and he never wore them and they got lost in the closet. When they were cleaning it out to move she found them and decided to give returning them a try!

Being that Dockers haven't really changed much throughout the decades, they were the same style. The manager told me to take them back, so I did! I had to do a work around because obviously the receipts aren't the same anymore, but I managed. The woman got cash back since she paid cash back in '78. I ended up making a new tag for the Dockers and put them up for sale with the rest of them.

.

Yep, that's happened to me, when I worked at Hudson's/Marshall field's/Macy's......The classic Dockers have not really changed much. I did exactly what the other poster did...put a new tag on the old merchandise and put it out for sale.

I love the description "cat butt face." It's something I learned here, but now it's stuck in my mind every time I see one. Here's a few recent ones from my workplace:

I don't know about the "cat butt face" description. When I think of "cat butt face" I think of someone who just ate a lemon and the sourness makes them wince. I think "gaping hole" would better fit a SC description, because when they don't get their way...usually they in such a manner that suggests they can't believe you aren't doing what they want followed by a of epic proportions.

>.< in my opinion suggests they are recoiling in horror over something.

I can't believe someone kept an article of clothing, with tags still attached, for 14 years.

And I thought *I* was a bad procrastinator.

My very first boyfriend out of high school had a mother who was a packrat to the proportion of needing mental health counseling over such a matter. It was around 1993. We were at their "island" home (don't get excited...a home on an island located on Lake Erie) where she had two freezers full of meat. She was looking for something in one of them and she put a gigantic filet mignon on the table among the other things she was taking out of the freezer. I looked at the package....... the filet mignon was from.....

1973

She said she bought it for a dinner party that ended up not taking place and she kept it. For years, when she would visit butcher shops, she would ask them how long meat would stay in the freezer. She stated they all said nearly the same thing...that meat will keep in the freezer for at least 6 months. She was never satisfied with this answer. She kept it because she was hoping one day she would find the butcher that told her meat keeps forever and EVAH in the freezer.

The freezer she kept at the house my boyfriend and I lived in...had meat that was 3 - 5 years old. I once decided to clean out the medicine cabinet in his bathroom. I found multitudes of bottles of pills from the late 60's through late 70's. She got pissed when she found out I threw them away. "There were good medications in there!" To hell with you, lady! Go ahead, take something that's been sitting in the medicine cabinet for 20 years. I dare you!

Not to mention, she had a bedroom FULL of polyester clothing. She would NOT get rid of it because she said she knows it will come back in style some day! Even if polyester DID come back in style....she had bought the clothing when she weighed 120 lbs in her early 20s. She was in her late 50s and 60 lbs heavier.

Oh man... I could go on and on about her. Sorry for the thread hijack.

SC: But it also says "other restrictions may apply." I want another restriction.
ME: [Incredulous] You want other restrictions? Um, okay. If it's used or worn, we can't take it back. If it's a DVD and you opened it, we can't take it back. You see ... "other restrictions" mean we take less back.
SC: [CAT BUTT FACE TO THE MAX] I guess I'll take the store credit.

OWNED!!!!! HAHAHAHA

Isn't it just adorable when they try to use a word and it's obvious that they don't know what it means?

hahaha that made me laugh so hard I almost snorted coffee up my nose

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Wouldn't that be best described as "Linda Lovelace pleasuring an invisible elephant?"

It is possible she meant she wanted a different restriction, not that one.

I don't need that kind of mental picture before coffee.

Oh and throughout (this took probably 20 mins) the woman so nice and patient. She was actually surprised and pleased that she could get her money back. She wasn't expecting it at all. She was just going to donate them if she couldn't return them.

Best return ever.

That is a first .....I rarely return anything but I would never return anything THAT old and make a cat butt face over the rules and restrictions with returns.

Someone, please...what is a cat butt face?

[Seshat]

When the person winces, pulls their lips together, and generally looks sour.

The lips are kind of pulled together in a way that (so some say) resembles a cat's butt.
