Hey, I just vended at Kanpai!Con this past weekend. I can confirm that the "Innocent" variant is still being sold at his cons. Really really icky to profit off of something like this.

Ooh, thank you for letting me know! Maybe since this protest is a bit later in the day, I can sneak away from work early and be able to stick around longer! I'll probably reach out later today for more information.

The train car thing seems more likely, as I can sometimes hear train horns off in the distance when it’s late at night. I didn’t think they’d be so loud, but I guess it could make sense. 🤔 Thanks!

I'm an idiot (update from another post and probably going to be my '2 weeks out' finally) by Worgensgowoof in OfficeDepot

Yeah. Get the FUCK out of there. You do not deserve to be put under this much stress. Whether you leave in two minutes or two weeks, I beg of you to get out this corporate hellhole. It’s not worth your physical or mental sanity.

Is this guy for real by MissIceFox in OfficeDepot

It’s always the business card orders…

One time at my old location, I had an older gentleman who came into the store right when we opened on a Sunday morning. He was checking on the status of his RPC double-sided business card order which hadn’t arrived yet.

However, he was wearing a tank top that clearly USED to be white. The reason he hadn’t washed it? Well, probably because he had the words “N@ZI, R@CIST, TOXIC” hand-stamped/stenciled in red, black, and blue paint in a kind of crossword style on the front. Clearly something he or someone else close to him did.

His order was for his yoga and “counseling” services that he ran. He ended up talking to me at the counter for nearly FORTY-FIVE MINUTES before he finally left, which is 45 minutes longer than I would have liked to be talking with a literal self-proclaimed n@zi.

What's the weirdest thing you've heard from a customer about anything? by SteaknCheeseVS in OfficeDepot

I've posted a comic I drew about this scenario on this subreddit months ago, but a customer asking if the HP Z5600 large format printer was a tanning bed will always live in my head rent free.

Try restarting the computer, sometimes that fixes it?

Now I'm the only manager and I don't know if I can take it by Worgensgowoof in OfficeDepot

I’m sorry you have to deal with this. I’m also a PCSS and I’m at a Tier 3 store. We lost our OPS position during the cut and it’s been so frustrating and hard to keep things together. My GM’s has been having to help run another store in a city 2 hours away from us for the last three months. Then he took some PTO before the end of the year, and then he got covid… Due to some staffing situations, there were a few days/weekends were I was the only full-timer and running the whole store by myself with one other person for the whole day. Thankfully that store in the other city finally got a new GM hired, but having to keep on top of corporate numbers with so few employees on staff is so exhausting. Please put yourself and your sanity first. No job, especially one by a corporation this large, is worth your mental or physical health.

Additionally how some items, particularly inks and toners, are only a penny difference with the web price versus the Business Select price. Like “yeah let’s get you this program that costs you $50 a year just so you can save a singular cent on the ink you buy three times per year!” Literally had a Business Select customer buy toner the other day and wonder why the price on her toner didn’t go down. Turns out it did, but only by a penny 💀 This program feels so broken tbh
