Specifically as to when a store will let you leave with your purchases.
Mother and her daughter come into the swamp and purchase about $400 worth of stuff, including a bunk bed and a mattress. I was called to carry those two things out for them.
I got everything together and up to the register, where I discovered daughter was paying for everything with a big wad o' giftcards in various denominations.
Mom barked at me "I've got my truck up by the doors already! Why do we have to wait?"
Answer: because your merchandise is not yet paid for, and will not be for some time because it's all being paid for by giftcards. When your stuff is paid for, the register will spit out a little piece of paper, also known as a "receipt," and then it will be okay for me to load everything up for you.
Actually, no it won't. The register will spit out two pieces of paper, or "receipts". One of them is for me to hand to the service desk person so she can make sure everything is paid for and I brought out the correct stuff. LP does watch us on camera to make sure we are doing this, so I'm going to do it, dammit.
Seriously, what made her think I'd give her the chance to get away with unpaid merchandise?
Patience: do you have it, motherfucker?
