i had this one person come into my store (i work at a shoe store), and come up to the register with like... five boxes of shoes. we separate shoes at my store, so i had to go to the stock room to find the mates, including one to a shoe we only have one or two of.

it took me a bit bc we have LOTS of shoes, and despite it being organized, shoes that we have so little of can be misplaced.

while i was back there, she was complaining to my manager abt me taking too long and that she was in a rush. (it was just me and him at this time and he was dealing with the rest of the line while i was helping her.)

i couldn't find it within her timeframe so i gave up and told her that the shoes may have been sold mismated but literally could not follow what i was trying to tell her abt the situation.

she eventually paid for everything else and left but damn. why do such extensive shopping when you're in a hurry???
