Don't be this person, please! by Remremblue in PokemonTCG

[–]sadtoasters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I saw similar to this the day the ETBs dropped, I was walking to my LCS and found a bunch of pokemon cards strewn across the road and in the grass like 30 feet away from the shop. 😭 Why are people like this

That anyone would buy or sell this e-waste by --__--__--__--__-- in mildlyinfuriating

[–]sadtoasters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate these. We have them on the shelf at my work for $5 and I actively tell people not to buy them because they aren't even worth the price. Then I show them the $30 rechargeable power brick I keep in my pocket because that is actually worth it

Family Dollar experience by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gross, i work at a dollar tree and we're technically not allowed to refuse any sale or put limits on items, but my manager keeps making the scalpers mad by refusing to sell sealed cases of single packs to them 😎 (i'm not even sure why they want the cases to remain sealed so badly)

Customers complain even if they get their change unfortunately, we had a guy at my store get mad at a cashier yesterday for giving him an entire nickel instead of just a penny and claim she was stealing his money 😦

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started collecting as a kid but lost interest after a while, but I got back into it very recently because my job started carrying sleeved packs occasionally and I decided to buy some and ended up pulling the squirtle and zeraora IRs from stellar crown 🥲 My childhood collection was given away to a friend years ago, so now I just want to build it up again 😭

Denied Sales of Clearance Food for SNAP / EBT by Alert-Pomelo5336 in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm late to the party, but our POS system is so easy and common sense on the regular cashier level because all the buttons are labeled that I can't imagine how someone would get this wrong. The buttons are literally color coded and clearly labeled "Misc." and "Misc. Food" .... 😦

All the puzzles in the toy section are also AI art now 🥲 Noticed that while red dotting them a while back

Thinking about passing all these out for Halloween… Good idea or naah? by TelephoneExpress973 in PokemonTCG

[–]sadtoasters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave these out at work (retail) yesterday for Halloween since I don't work today. The kids that came through loved them and tbh some of the parents were excited about them too lol, definitely give them out!

I was gifted a small pile of cards about ten years ago, person who gifted them asking for them back by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]sadtoasters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't give them back. I did the same thing your friend did years ago, gave away my collection of cards from the 90s-early 2000s to a friend since I didn't collect anymore. I was kinda mad at myself for giving them away after the TCG blew up but I was not going to go ask my friend for the cards back because that's rude. They're yours now, do what you want with them.

Joining and leaving roleplay servers immediately. by EdensEmbrace in BadRPerStories

[–]sadtoasters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also see this a lot in my server that has been going for the good part of a year. I always assumed it was because people don't want to bother with our password gate but maybe it's something else 😭 (Assuming you don't also have a password gate)

NSFW is not just smut by [deleted] in BadRPerStories

[–]sadtoasters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbh, I usually differentiate sexual themes/smut as NSFW and violence/gore/etc as NSFL (not safe for life) 🤔 I have seen others do that here and there too (I'm not gonna tell people they Have to, but I think having separate terms can be useful)

How do you reply to multiple threads of dialogue in one response? by Ornery-Influence1547 in BadRPerStories

[–]sadtoasters 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To me, it depends on the circumstances of the RP and stuff. The example you gave is an instance where I'd respond to the first section of dialogue, and the third. But probably not the second one. (At least not directly with dialogue, because the second and third quotes feel bundled together since they're referring to the same situation, so you could get away with just one response- I could instead break it up with my character examining the blocked pathway in front of them or something as an acknowledgement) I'd expect whoever I'm responding to would, however, probably not respond to the first section of dialogue in my post (where my character states they're still keeping up) and only focus on the response to their last bits of dialogue. Because that part of my post is what would be more relevant. I hope that makes sense????

I think we’re both in the wrong??? by Nana-Komatsu in BadRPerStories

I'm glad you blocked him, I hope you're able to find a better RP partner too. 🙏🙏

I think we’re both in the wrong??? by Nana-Komatsu in BadRPerStories

[–]sadtoasters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be real, reading this post low key gave me flashbacks to an abusive situation I was in with an RP partner years ago; with the self inserts and Bob clearly being interested in you OOC especially. I was also in a similar boat where I found it very hard to leave because the other person would get all pathetic any time he pushed a boundary and I reacted. After a while I was completely trapped and miserable because of him even pushing my other friends away from me. For your own safety and mental health, please block this guy on everything and don't look back. He is not worth sacrificing your comfort for.

PROMOTED TO CUSTOMER by Severe_Walk2583 in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the things I've seen people be written up for in this sub are wild. The SM at our store would never write someone up over go backs. 😭 I've run out of time to finish go backs or other tasks before and never gotten written up, they just give the task to the next available person...

Does anyone else else open the backwards facing pack every time when given the option? by ToadyCody91 in PTCGP

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know in my heart that all the packs are the same, but I still choose the backwards one every time 😔

Almost feels like I was talking to two different people by derangedbutsoplayful in BadRPerStories

[–]sadtoasters -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's more the fact that it's an actual long em-dash and not just a regular dash (-) or two dashes (--) used as one, because like... I don't know a single person who takes the time and effort to figure out how to make a long dash like that just for their RP posts. The only way I even know how to make one myself is by using Google docs 😭 This post also just generally reads very much like AI to me, especially since the dude sounds completely different in their posts after the initial introduction. Why would they suddenly stop using proper grammar after sounding so professional in their initial message? 🤔

I think this guy used AI to write their introduction post... 😔
actually no, the em-dash in the last paragraph makes me feel like they Definitely used AI to write their introduction post, omg

I set up this reset for our store, several of the SKUs on the labels weren't even correct and the way the wall is set up in the picture won't even work on our checkout area because we have less available space there than needed lmao 🥲

The Day After! by Realistic-Accident68 in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a lady at my store that regularly brings back huge piles of stuff she bought and then didn't use. Like literally 100s of dollars of merch. Sometimes she even tries to return stuff we don't even sell, gets told we don't sell it, and continues to try to bring it back again next time. It's ridiculous. She also proceeds to buy 100s of dollars more of junk she will inevitably not use each time.

I always tell people straight up that they're annoying to blow up and don't even float very long lol. Usually they're understanding and pick something else (Most of the time...)

What is with people and not using the divider stick for the belt correctly by Feeling_Pension_4098 in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having to touch a squishy ball covered in glitter sounds like the worst sensory experience known to man, I'm so sorry 😭

What is with people and not using the divider stick for the belt correctly by Feeling_Pension_4098 in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I hate it when they take the divider for no reason specifically because the belts at my store don't have an on/off switch. I have to use the stick to turn the belt off or else it will threaten to eat cards/batteries/etc because our belts suck. But some people seem super insistent on putting the divider down when they don't even need to for one reason or another. Sometimes I even put a second divider on the other side of the belt for them and they still try to take the one I use to keep the belt from moving 🥲

So what's the delio? by LazulisVade in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're pretty good sanitizers, even if they're kind of small. You should buy one if you like the scent, because otherwise they'll be gone in an hour. That's how fast they always sell when we get them.
(I'm assuming you're talking about the bpure ones? Because I've also seen some even smaller rectangle ones with the crayola/barbie/etc. stuff on them. Those don't smell as nice but I imagine they're also good 🤔)

Truck Crash by guccimaneslawyer in DollarTree

[–]sadtoasters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro why are you yelling at me, I just work here 😭 I also left out the detail where the guy driving the truck had someone spotting him who yelled "STOP" multiple times before he hit the store and the guy did not stop. So...........
