Alt text: a text post that reads: Work in retail long enough, and you’ll eventually realize the rules for dealing with Customers are exactly the same as dealing with the Fae:

  • Avoid eye contact.
  • Never reveal your full name.
  • Accept nothing They offer you.
  • Never verbally agree or disagree with anything They might happen to say.
  • To apologize is to acknowledge a debt owed.
  • Under no circumstances are you ever to thank Them.
  • Remember that They are incapable of reading signs in human languages.

    I would have to struggle not to pronounce the creme like they do in Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law. “Crrrem.” Which is ridiculous.

      If someone came in and actually did a Harvey Birdman, I’d probably give them a free cookie. My managers still don’t understand why my go-to recommendation for a new product is cookies on dowels. HAHA!
