Caution: If you dont work in retail this thread may offend you.
I know Im still just a noob on these boards but I thought this kind of thread would stir some conversation with those in the ranks of retail trade. Im lucky enough to work in the in the wonderful sub category of Business IT retail.. which means I sell computers, servers and other computer releated gear to the business market and a small percentage to the home user market .. (usually on the weekends). For obvious reasons its probably wise not to mention where you work in this thread.. this thread is more intended to be a place for those of us in retail to vent. If you work in retail of any kind .. face to face or on the phone .. you know all to well that people ask really stupid questions .. do really stupid things and generally just behave like children when they dont get there way .. I know youve got stories .. so vent away.
My most recent story happened this morning.. a guy walked in and asked us if we sold fan belts for cars.. (were a computer shop) .. I said no and the guy walked out .. everyone else in the shop burst into laughter.
