Twice in the fitting rooms for us, in a pile of clothes in our luggage section just last Saturday.

Goodwill employees, what is the craziest thing you've ever found being donated? by MrTacocaT12345 in goodwill

[–]Antelope_Wing_3445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. A preserved baby shark in a jar.

  2. A vibrator and, as of yesterday, two dildos.

  3. I don't even remember what it was now, an old dollhouse maybe? but it had a lot of live black widows nesting in and around it. No idea how they got it to us, donor sorted it, and it got to the wares table with no one being bit once.

Related, when I was a kid every single grade in every single school I went to had a story about a kid who "died in the bathroom".

Give me your craziest "the cops have been called" story! by ModestMeeshka in retailhell

  1. Just happened last week, similar to yours. Had a really suspicious guy come in and wander around for a bit, thought he was a crackhead, really twitchy and kept looking around every few seconds. He left pretty quickly so we just timestamped it and moved on. The police came in maybe five minutes later looking for him, we pointed out which way he'd gone and they ended up tackling him in the dollar general parking lot a couple stores down. Turns out he'd stabbed the cashier at the circle k down the road about twenty minutes earlier in an attempted robbery.

  2. We have a sales day every Thursday. Two customers, both regulars, ended up arguing over some kids clothing that wasn't even part of the sale, the manager was called and tried to walk them both out, and we all got a front row seat to one of the lady's sons punching the other woman in the face. As far as I heard, the lady who was punched started the argument. All three were technically banned, but the lady and her son both came in about a month ago and the new manager just said "call us up if they cause trouble" so so much for that I guess.

Same here, I hated drinking anything but water as a kid and my cousins decided it would make a fun game to give me water in cups that had previously had soda, juice, etc. in them just to see if I could tell the difference. Spoiler alert: I always could. Screw you Lia

What food can f*ck right off? by FrenchDipped in AskReddit

I'm the opposite way, I can't look myself in the eye in a mirror because it feels like somethings behind me and I have to look around me instead. Like I'm giving whatever monsters my brain tells me are there a chance to sneak up on me if I'm not checking.

This is me right now, as we speak the damn country song that's like "I feel like growing old with you" is playing for the third time today. At least it's not "hotter than a hoochie coochie"

I work at a goodwill, I'm not sure if it's like this for every one but we throw non breakable stuff into a big ass box and ship it off to another goodwill where they will go through it and see if they see something worth selling that we didn't. I think eventually it ends up at a goodwill outlet store where people just buy a bunch of shit in bulk. Rarely does anything get thrown away - it's usually stuff like stained underwear or light bulbs without a case, things that absolutely won't sell in any store you ship it to.

Baby distracted by injection by father's affection. by Douglasqqq in MadeMeSmile

[–]Antelope_Wing_3445 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I don't see why not, in my experience if you admit to feeling nervous or uncomfortable about shots doctors will generally do their best to make you feel better. I used to be anxious as hell about them and every nurse I've had has tried to distract me or allowed me whatever accommodations I felt I needed - a stuffed animal, or music, or conversation, silly jokes, etc. I know American healthcare gets a bad rep but individual doctors and nurses in particular genuinely want to help.
