No, not a year.

Not completely sucky, but I need to tell.

BG: So, there's these two ladies that always come in. They either seem super high or super drunk, and sadly, I don't think it's either. And I think their just friends, cause they don't look related. Someone once told me that the smaller lady used to do drugs and now she's just messed up. They're just out-of-it, I guess you can say. The bigger lady once was asking me about our credit cards, and I DID NOT understand a word she said.

Anyways, smaller lady comes up to my register with a return. I'm already annoyed with that because my supervisor is on lunch and I have to call the assisstant manager for approval.

She has a pillow, and starts going on about it's from a loooong time ago. I look at her receipt and it's from October 2010. A year ago!!!

I said, "Um, yeah. Our returns have a 90-day limit."

She was all confused and says she's done it before and used gift cards and such. I said if she didn't have her receipt I could have done that. (Who keeps a receipt that long anyway??? Must have been buried in her closet or something...)

I called my AM (because I would need her anyway) and explained the story to her. She was like, "How old is it?" I said, "October of last year."

"Yeah, we can't do a year."

I explained that to the lady and she said it was bullshit and wanted to talk to her. I paged her again (meanwhile telling the woman there's biiig sign over at customer service that explains our policy), and she ended up coming to my register. She said that a year was waaay to long, and we couldn't do it.

The lady sighed and said something about not bringing a receipt would have been better, and my AM agreed. She left, and her friend bought something.

I bet she'll try to come back later during the day without a receipt, and I don't really care! It was only $4!!!

I would have thought that she would have discovered she didnt liek the pillow a little sooner

Do people like this just go through their things whenever they need money? Y'know, grab a few items and try to return them for cash?

Beats workin'.

OT. I was a manager at a McD's and one morning I was running shift getting ready for the lunch rush. I was going over the schedule at the front counter deciding who I would put where, etc. and I was talking to myself as I sometimes do when I am problem solving. A young girl, a new hire, suddenly comes up to me and...

YG: You hear the voices too! They're not really there you know. I did some bad acid at a concert last year and I've been hearing the voices ever since. I'll tell you my trick; don't answer unless you actually see the person talking! I started to get into trouble talking to no one until I learned that! It's better not to answer someone than it is to talk when -

Me: (interrupting this tirade that appears to have no end) I was just talking to myself. I don't hear voices.

YG: (crestfallen, she's lost her new BFF) oh.

I mean I felt bad for her but it was creepy. She quit a few days later, I think she was embarrassed and assumed I would tell everyone she was crazy (I never did tell anyone about her at the time).
