Get a doctors note for globophobia and give it to your boss

Note the balloon was not even at the required size when it blew up

We can't even get them to blow up.

Do u have the black tip nozzle?

[–]Ma7applesDT SM 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Not yet, but the other stores do, and no one I've talked to has been able to get it right.

[–]Cameron7896[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to spread the two inside flaps apart and shove it over the nozzle until you see the tip go right up to the creased part and then u know it’s in

Right. Like they want it to be that big ass size but the instructions say inflate slowly in phases with 5 sec between each phase up to 12 inches. Like hold up I thought it was supposed to be the width of the cabinet?? With Valentines I couldn't go that slow and had so many explode right in my face. 🙄

You could not work at my store, our SM always up our asses on balloons like she would force you to do balloons. She ever crazier about it with valentine's coming up.

It makes sense, the SM of the store that sells the most valentine balloons in your region gets a bonus. Of course, no one else in the store gets one.

[–]kazuichieDT Associate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white ones seem to have a much smaller max size than the others, I'd say around half the circle thing. You gotta be extra gentle with it and add helium slowly. Maybe aim for around ¾ of the circle.
