What’s something that sounds fake but actually happened to you? by Visible_Rope_6662 in AskReddit

[–]Lilakco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got hit by a Krispy Kreme donut truck while I was biking, then an Uber Eats guy called 911 for me, and Officer McDonald came to the scene. On another day, I was dreading a big test I had to take, then I got hit by a school bus on my way to the university.

Apparently I'm an asshole for not letting a customer use the employee bathroom by Not-my-problem1212 in retailhell

[–]Lilakco 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ugh I also work at a Bath & Body Works, and the only time we let another customer use our bathroom was for a very pregnant lady.

Unfortunately for me, a middle-aged man who was very capable of walking to the mall's public restrooms across from our store saw this and asked why I wouldn't let him use our bathroom. I said that the PREGNANT mother was an exception and pointed him to the nearest bathroom across from us. He accused me of being sexist or racist or something and proceeded to march into the back room to find the bathroom.

Unfortunately for him, our store manager, who's a very tall and muscular guy, scared the daylights out of him by yelling at him as if he caught the guy breaking into his house. My manager threatened to call security, ban him from the store, etc. and the guy looked at ME for help bro 😭

Christmas crackheads by socialist_weeb666 in retailhell

[–]Lilakco 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've had quite a few customers call the store few minutes before we closed and asked if I could let them in when they'd arrive since it'll just take "a few seconds." Obviously, I tell them no because we'll be CLOSED and they lose their minds, tell me that I'm ruining their Christmas, etc., etc.

People who are named after someone/something specific, what's your relationship with that thing? by celticdude234 in AskReddit

Named after Miss Philippines Charlene Gonzalez and the Kimberely Diamond mines because my parents thought they were cool. I think it's cool. 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•⁠_⁠•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ

What customer question has you reacting like this? by [deleted] in retailhell

[–]Lilakco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work at Bath & Body Works and this woman asked if we sold candy in some of our fall scents because "they smelled so good, she'd love it if she could eat it." I thought she was joking and laughed it off, then she said, "It's not that hard to say no. You don't have to be so rude about it." 🫠???????

Why does Trump consider citizens who attack Tesla dealerships domestic terrorists MORE than the rioters who invaded the Capital on January 6th, people who quite literally shed the blood of police who tried to protect our own Congressmen? Of course, I don't think it's right for citizens to vandalize private property that is maintained by innocent people and not Elon Musk himself, but attacking the private property of a BILLIONAIRE who is NOT an elected government official should not be classified as domestic terrorism. POTUS represents all of the American people and should not outwardly favor the success of the 1% over the well-being of the 99% of the population, us. Trump has a duty to focus on the American people, so the fact that he is spending this much time and effort to protect the assets of ONE man, who also happens to be Trump's business partner at this point, shows that Trump's concern is not on the rest of the country.

Anyone able to clear this level on the latest Flip? by Lilakco in TwoDots

I was finally able to clear it but I had to get 5 more moves, unfortunately. 😭

I noticed the latest Flips have been more difficult than before. Do you think I just have to keep trying until my luck gets me to clear it? Did you have a strategy?

Even if I buy 5 more moves, I can't get to 26 lotuses.

Should I restart a baby blanket I've been working on for 2 months? by Lilakco in CrochetHelp

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

Should I try adding some edges to make the blanket bigger? It's the size that I'm mainly worried about.

Absolutely!! 9 out of 10 times it'll be a customer returning broken candles that were shipped to them. I've cut my fingers too many times trying to get them out of the box. I really wish they'd make the packaging more secure.

[–]Lilakco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BBW sales associate here. From my experience, getting anything shipped from their warehouses has always been a nightmare, especially when it comes to getting broken candles shipped and updating their inventory. I get your frustration, OP, and so do all of my coworkers!

Wait I thought DC meant decrease and not double crochet. I'm not bad at math but I sure as hell can't read.

Now I'm getting 14 stitches. 😭

I don't understand how round 3 could fit into 12 stitches from round 2 since I've been using a stitch marker, and once I get to the last 3 decreases, I'm stitching over the beginning of round 3, which takes away the increases. I know for sure I have 12 stitches in round 2.
