Hello everyone!
My name is Lady Yokai. Well, of course it's not really Lady Yokai, but for now, we'll just keep it at that. I have never done this before, but I have a lot of hostility so, why not post it?!!!!! Maybe through my ramblings, someone else won't feel so alone.
So I guess, let's start with today.
The chaotic holiday hustle and bustle has started! This is day 6. I work in retail. ( I won't say where. That would be just too easy!) This is my first retail job. Before this job, customer service was just a sick joke. I spent some time in the US Army doing some local resident interviewing. Asking if they wanted a gift receipt just wasn't going to happen. Anyway, I got out of the Army and sat around for a couple of months. During that time, I began to love pilates and hate fast food. Also I got a job in a bookstore. My first job that didn't require me to scream at the top of my lungs or do push-ups when I made a FUBAR. The job is cool. I get to learn stuff from all the smart people around me and the food ain't bad.
Well to the point of this blog. I promised someone at work I would blog stupid and irritating questions from customers. So here are a couple from today.
After putting out 256 variations of holiday cards, a customer asked me:
" Is this all you have? I've seen all these already!"
I leave my house at 6:30 am. I start work at 7 am. I don't leave until 1pm.
"I was watching the Today Show/The View/Fox and Friends/Early Show/Good Morning America this morning. There was a (fill in the appropriate color ) book on the show. Can you tell me where that book is?"
"I am looking for a book. The words the and leader are in the title."
" I see you have 12 different types of monopoly games, but do you have the kind you can buy at Wal-mart?"
"Do you sell books at this store?"
" I'm looking for a book. It's red."
I hope you enjoy those as much as I hated to hear them!!!!!!
Til' next time!

" Is this all the bread that you have"
" Is this cake fresh"? No dumb ass we keep the cake out until it grows life and you get sick and sue us and we will all be out of jobs.
