Someone said I’ve just printed it after handing you a note. Working in retail for 14 years that’s literally all I hear. I think I’d be able to retire comfortably by now. I always quip back but it’s just like ‘as if I haven’t heard that one before’

Come on let’s keep it going and see how many people can relate....

I worked in an arcade in the 80's as a Saturday/after school job and customers playing machines used to shout us over for change. A woman was waving a £1 note in the air and shouted 'Change!' I was a sarky 16 yr old and answered 'What into?' She gave me the death stare and said 'Someone who likes their job'. Made me laugh, but I'd hate to work in retail - I just don't have the patience.

‘Oh you’ve got your hands full’ I’m a dog walker. Four dogs walking beautifully on a loose lead, yeah not exactly a handful.

‘I only really eat small meals and never snack’ people at slimming world who yo-yo between a pound off and a pound on all year.

2 minutes to closing, customer shoots in “oh thank goodness, you’re not closed yet/made it just in time/are you closing now?”

It’s a bedlinen shop, not a chemist! Hmm you really could have done without browsing pillowcases at 5:58 this evening.
