Whether you call it Black Friday or Buy Nothing Day, today is going to be a long day for those who work in retail. The customer might always be right in the store, but here on LJ let's hear some stories about times when the customer was wrongedy wrong wrong.

Oh Criminey, I work at Petsmart, not what you'd think of on Black Friday, right? Wrong. We opened two freakin hours early and I've been told we will have extended holiday hours (wtf). Do you really need a chirstmas plushie and one of those obnoxious pedi-paws that badly?

If halloween was any preview of what is to come this Holiday, I'm scared. First off all of the INSANE people come in on holidays, which is to be expected. But we had these 'howl-o-ween' bags lefts from a Halloween photo thing the week before (><) and I was giving them out at the register. Well they didn't give me a lot, most of them were in the back. Well this lady came in with her two dogs and I gave her a treat bag in with the stuff she bought (the were in costume btw). Well apparently she came in the next day, mad because I only gave her one treat bag. WTF I TOLD HER that I only had ONE left at the register and I couldn't give her two. Maybe if she hadn't been too busy trying to fix the hood on her dogs lion and dinosaur costumes she would have heard me.

Seriously people. Pet Costumes = No just no

Now off to see wwhat havoc is at my work
