The Fitting Room Lady

Hatred comes in many forms...there is a very real place in hell for those who frequent retail establishments in the same way they frequent their drug dealer's post graduation party. 

It's funny that people see driving and shopping as rights, until they get taken away. I got to finally kick someone out of my store that pissed me off so bad that I was literally shaking. Luckily, I kept my hands off them and only used sly insults that they wont understand until they get home.

"Miss, unfortunately I am going to need to ask you to leave."
"What the f*** did I do?"
"Well, you screamed at a little girl and then threw your pile of clothes at one of my associates."
"So, thats their problem."
"Yeah, if you don't leave in the next 2 minutes, I am calling the police."
"What are they going to do?"
"Keep asking stupid questions and you will find out what they will do."
"This is f***ing bulls***, I want to speak to your manager."
"Yeah...that's me..so...you are leaving. Now."
"This isn't the last you have heard of me."
"You aren't a supervillian. You are just a person acting rude and disrespectful. Out."

Good luck out there comrades. With Love,
-Milly

The Beginning

So I will start this by stating that I find blogs to be an utterly self serving waste of time. They create mindless excess garbage that floods the internet and prevents my Google from allowing me to search for "Cable Bill Payment" without seeing a thousand stories about how some girl was mad that her cable didnt work because she didn't pay her bill....I do not care.

However, I seem to come across a an absolutely insane amount of what I like to call "Raw Humanity" in my line of work that dominates dinner and drink conversation with my friends. I have been known to go onto 30-45 minute rants in relation to some of my customers, co-workers, and bosses with such fervor as to make people choke on their drinks and ruin their new shag carpeting (because for this example, its 1972).

So that is what this blog will be dedicated to: those brave souls who work retail day in and day out and even more so for those who actually kind of enjoy it. The same way someone who cuts themselves gets a sick pleasure out of it...However, do not assume this will be purely about retail, it will be about whatever bizarre and hilarious events occur during the course of the week.

Let's see what becomes of it, shall we.
