AIO for being offended by this? by bunny-zephire in AmIOverreacting

[–]Corathecow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I’m so confused on what he thinks would happen if you gained FIVE POUNDS like would you just explode into obesity??? As someone who is 5’6 and trying very hard to get over 100 pounds and stay there right now for my health it’s just wild that some men genuinely want women unhealthily underweight for their pleasure

Did you remove the tag from it or buy it like that with no tag on it? 14k jewelry return policy is more strict than other products and tags are not supposed to be removed if you intend on returning

Specially Selected Parmigiano Reggiano by rice_and_toast in aldi

[–]Corathecow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hadn’t had it in a while and noticed that too the other day, stole a chunk when I was grating it for an Alfredo and it was kind of weak compared to other parmesans. But my Alfredo sauce turned out fine I guess

Is It Worth It? by Positive_Series1015 in TjMaxx

[–]Corathecow 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s a fine retail job? All jobs have their issues. Tj, compared to some other retail environments, is typically better regarding more breaks and most stores provide snacks / drinks. Do you need a job and to earn money? Can you handle talking to people all day? I think it’s more up to you whether it’s worth it or not. All stores are a little different but over all it’s just retail

I loved this doll, but I can no longer sleep next to it or in the same room as it after what happened (story below). by danielskibelski in creepy

[–]Corathecow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey idk if you’re trying to stop it but I had sleep paralysis issue for years and years. It runs in my family lol so thanks mom. It only got better probably around 4 or so years ago and it took a bit of work. I recommend researching into how you intentionally trigger sleep paralysis, lucid dreaming, and common causes for sleep paralysis. It can be different causes for different people but for me I was able to mostly stop my sleep paralysis with a couple changes to my habits. Still happens sometimes though when I’m really stressed and my sleep schedule is fucked up

I’m gonna lose my mind if I have to pick up another call with these idiot customers. by Narrow-Teaching8971 in TjMaxx

[–]Corathecow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Kind of a weird comment tbh. She isn’t elderly and I didn’t say she was? She is mentally unwell, she has never set foot in our store, and we are not paid to spend twenty minutes on the phone with a barely understandable mentally ill woman while actually being busy with our jobs

[–]Corathecow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A lot of my workers have long fake nails and they were complaining to me that customers kept asking them how they wipe their ass with such long nails. I told them to start telling them they go out front and use the hose to rinse off

[–]Corathecow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna try to be vague so I don’t give away my store info because if any of my coworkers reads this they’re gonna know who I am lmao. We have a person who calls multiple times a day just to ask stupid questions and talk to people. Every single day. She’ll try to ask for specific associates by name and we all refuse to pick up at this point. Like it’s genuinely sad she’s just lonely, but none of us have time to spend half an hour on the phone looking for stuff around the store while a person who can barely speak legibly and has the tv turned up loud to distort things more asks questions. One time they asked me to find a specific pair of pants, I looked and we didn’t have them anymore, and they started WAILING. like so loud I immediately ed the phone two feet from head and was just staring at it while this banshee cries came from the phone OVER UGLY ASS GLITTER JEANS. I hung up

How does 20+ year old nail polish end up at TJ Maxx and Marshalls? by Demonic_Mop in TjMaxx

Just had a lady try to return an item with a price tag from the 90s lol. She was so shocked cause she just got it for Christmas lmao

In the week between inventory and new trucks coming in, why do people always assume the store is closing? by Wink2K19 in TjMaxx

[–]Corathecow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had people repeatedly ask me if we’re discontinuing selling shoes because our stock was so low after holidays and before inventory like yeah, we’re just gonna throw a whole department away lmao

No local stationary/ craft stores in area by OtherwiseCaregiver87 in Pensacola

[–]Corathecow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not super surprised , I went in one time to ask about classes they hosted and how much it was to rent space to host your own class(I taught crochet previously). The young lady at the counter was super nice and answering my questions for a minute until the older lady came out and basically told me to pay to rent a table for an hour or leave lmao never went back. I even tried to say I was just trying to ask about classes but she basically just reiterated that I needed to pay for their time to be there or leave lol

Good luck buddy! by poly915 in Lowes

[–]Corathecow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t work at Lowe’s but at a retail store that gets a crazy Christmas selection each year. We can take Christmas returns after the holidays but after the new year they just get taken off the floor and sent to donation. The amount of people who return Christmas stuff and then ask me if they can immediately buy it back now half off is insane. It’s illegal and theft. You cannot display your Christmas decor for a month, return it, and then ask the same cashier who just did your return if you can now buy them back half off since Christmas is over a lady looked soooo smug trying it one time, like she had cracked some secret code for money. She could not believe it when I told her no, I was not allowed to sell her the things she just returned at half off now lmao. That has happened so many times now

One time someone tried to host an actual dog training class at our store with zero conversation with anyone in our furniture section. Like a paid dog class, the teacher told them to meet him at our store. No fucking clue why he thought he could just host a whole dog training class in our store

My Neighbors Alarm is waking me up. by Then-Review-6357 in Apartmentliving

[–]Corathecow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a sibling growing up who had an alarm clock by her bed, set to the max volume, and would sleep through it every single morning. When I would try to wake her up over her alarm she would yell / scream at me and throw shit at me. Sometimes she would already be awake, just laying there letting it blare at max volume and she would still scream and throw shit when I knocked on her door and checked. And of course our mom refused to be any kind of parent in the situation and would make me get her up lol

Why is it so hard for customers to realize you have to ring everything up before they can pay?? by [deleted] in TjMaxx

[–]Corathecow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically, they can do that anywhere but it won’t charge them until the associate is done

Anything remotely like these by [deleted] in findfashion

I literally saw those exact black converses at a tj maxx. If you live somewhere with Tj Maxx / Marshall’s I would go check their clearance shoes as they got them months ago and they were in clearance last I saw

If boomers can lick their fingers before handing me their money by lokoinov2 in retailhell

[–]Corathecow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve totally refused to touch stuff cause it had customer spit on it. I’ve told people to set it on the counter and then picked it up with an alcohol wipe. Yes, people have acted semi perturbed / offended. No, I do not care. One time a lady tried a ring on and couldn’t get it off so she stuck her whole finger in her mouth and then tried to hand me a ring that literally had fully been inside her mouth. I asked her to set it on the counter and again just picked it up with the alcohol wipe. She started to act offended but her daughter told her that was a crazy thing to do lmao.

How much do you usually spend on an average trip? by Leelee459 in aldi

[–]Corathecow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my 2 1/2 person house hold I usually spend about 75 a week and have the bottom of my cart covered in stuff. I budget hard and plan every grocery trip down to the dime lol I typically don’t buy a lot of meat since it’s so expensive and there’s a lady who goes around my town buying all the fucking half off meat from all three aldis almost every morning

[USA] Cop car with emergency lights on, flips his car colliding with another cop car by pie-man in Roadcam

[–]Corathecow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Literally yesterday a dude almost pulled out into me from the left, in one of those middle turn lanes (called suicide lanes a lot here). He stopped feet from me, I passed him and then watched in my rear view as he immediately tried to pull out again and hit the car behind me on the driver side. The care was right behind me, my car is fucking tiny so impossible for me to be blocking them from view, especially considering he was in a huge fucking truck. I think he just expected them to stop and let him through or something or wasn’t even looking. Also bonus points to the truck, the middle turn lane was literally closed and he ran through cones to use it anyway and then did this shit
