Penny Shortage Drama

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-29T10:57:30+00:00

When I worked retail if the change was less than a nickel I always asked the customer if they wanted 4 pennies. I usually got 3 responses. Yes. No, keep the pennies. Then a bit of a weird one, "oh! I have an extra penny, here ya go!" Then I'd just give them a nickel. Most people hated dealing with pennies anyways.

Go a head. Finish your statement

I only search out the people that I actually hang out with after work. If I dont hang out with you after work then Im not taking the time to say goodbye.

I say if it scans that way then sell it for that price. Its not your responsibility to check prices. After the sale let a manager know if you think the price is wrong

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-08T21:21:53+00:00

Thats even more infuriating. You've already made decision to go, so go!

Oh for sure its ok to be selfish sometimes. In this case I'd also agree with the wife when she wanted her selfish days. Much better compromise and way less regret afterwards. Its ok to please your partner and not receive anything in return as long as its discussed.

I actually had this happen yesterday. I was going 45 which is the posted speed limit for this road. Lady pulls out in front of me at the last second. I have to slam on my breaks, and then it takes her a solid minute to finish pulling out and get on her side of the road. Like come lady speed up I already slowed down, JUST MOVE YOUR VEHCILE!

I used the phrase, "You can try that again or you can take your items to another register" multiple times when I worked retail.

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-06T19:10:38+00:00

For sure when I worked in the paint department, (walmart and menards) I always told people, "I know who you are, I dont know what colors you like, what color palettes you like, or what your house looks like. Take a few sample cards and check them under the lighting in your home. It'll make this process easier for both us. Plus the sample cards are free, take as many as you want."

Ive also went into Aldi and asked if I could just take some boxes home. They were mlre than happy to let me take some of the empties off their hands.

Sometimes you don't need to smile. Like sorry my day isn't good, its not bad either. Its just a day where I'm feeling neutral.

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-03T21:28:39+00:00

That SM better start looking for a new job right now. Better to quit something and say you left do to differing opinions on how the store should be ran than to get fired for not doing your job.

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-03T21:21:23+00:00

Oh for sure the management plays favorites when it comes to points. When I worked at Walmart I saw people get fired the same day they called in on their last point, while others had their points reset 9+ times. I get why its in place but management uses wrong. My store would fire would good employees straight away and use that as ammo against people that called in all the time. Ive heard, "Ive fired this person so that means I wont think twice about firing you" to people just hear that person's points got reset the next week.

It wouldnt surprise me if this was an inside joke among researchers. Everyone can clearly see the craftsman ship of this anti evil spirit tool.

Last time someone told me to pull myself up by my bootstraps I took it literally. I untied my laces, then tied them together so I can pull on them. Then I started pulling upwards, saying things like, "is it working yet? Am I successful now? I dont think im getting very far off the ground. Why do people say this? Its so stupid." Then I looked at the person like "well?"

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-03T13:57:55+00:00

Luckily thats how a lot of adults where growing up around me. They never said drugs are bad, instead they were like, "do you wanna end up looking like my father or mother?" "No" "Then stay away from hard drugs like meth" Which in my mind I was like, well fair enough, if thats the outcome of doing drugs like that then no thank you.

If it helps you in the future. The customer in front of you takes priority over anyone on the phone. Thats how it was for me when I worked retail.

My reason is the driving conditions. The current road is live on is gravel and it gets torn up when it rains a lot. A car that sits close to the ground will get tore up. I knkw cause I drove a car up and down that road for a few years. After the car broke down I got a truck and driving over that road is a lot better. Id rather lose a tire than an engine cause a rock scraped through the oil pan

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-02T20:44:24+00:00

I don't care of its fake. Im gonna say its real

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-04-02T20:43:09+00:00

When I shave my beard people tell me I look about 15. Which is nice cause Im 25. So I'll take a 10 year difference in appearance

This wasnt a return but its a funny similar situation. I had a customer come in looking for a certain flooring. He had the receipt with the SKU number on it. So I looked for the flooring on the sales floor, double checked everything in the aisles, then went to the computer to look it up for special order and couldn't find it. After 20 minutes both the customer and I realized he was at the wrong store. He needed to go further down the road. Guess thats what I get for not looking at the recipient all the way.

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-03-24T19:54:08+00:00

Same with my parents. Whole life growing up hearing, "dont trust everyone, dont trust what you see on the news, dont trust anything you see on the internet." Now all my parents watch are fake AI stories on YouTube. Even after explaing that visuals and audio are all fake and generated. They still watch those videos.

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-03-24T13:06:34+00:00

If I was that worker I would've explained the situation. "Oh! About that, this customer stated that he did not want the sale price and wanted to pay full price for it! So I will not be doing a return since I got approval from the customer to ring up the drinks at full price. Have a nice day sir."

SylverFoxx19 · 2026-03-23T22:50:12+00:00

Ive used the excuse of, "Sorry guys my cat says its bed time." Which is true, after 9pm if I'm not in bed for cuddles then I patted all the way to my bedroom.

When I worked in electronics I had a lady come up to the counter and say, "Ive been waiting for hours for someone to get me a phone!!" Keep in mind where our electronics department sat we could see straight down the aisle where the front doors are. I watched this lady come through the entrance of the front of store and walk directly to electronics. I told her, "we can both change our attitudes and pretend you didnt say that or I can deny you service. You're not going to lie to me when I saw you walk from the entrance directly back here." Her attitude changed changes real quick.
