so most of you have probably heard of bath & body works (at least if you're in the us.) for the most part i love my job, i sell freakin' bubble bath. but there are two times a year when i think most all people are bat shit crazy. this past week has been build up to one of them that offically starts on monday. our semi fucking annual sale. every june and january i have to wake up extra fucking early (i have to be there at 5 to open at 7) just so these women can come in and save. </span>i really want to tell them, you don't save shit when you spend $200-$300 on lotion!
hell, i'm just pissed cause i've been working my ass off all weekend, no play time until wednesdaysmileys/smiley6.gif.
at least i'll make a good bonus this quarter.
bitching over.

I thought you sold shoes for some reason. I like bubbles, lotions, oils and potions. Try not to focus on the negative traits of the woman of the women you sell too, but maybe on the bike you might get with your fat bonus...

the duke sells shoes [but not anymore eh!]
B&BW usually scares me.. the massive collage of scents and spaztic women that shop there just doesn't quite do it for me..
but huge respect to ya tink, for being able to put up with it smileys/smiley16.gif

the women that come in during the sale are a whole different kind of freak from our normal customer. i'm actually better now. i don't have to deal with morons coming in asking if my sale's starting tomorrow. for some reason the big ass red sign that says the sale starts tomorrow didn't help these people out too much. eeehhh. it's all about the bonus now.

Yeah, I used to sell shoes, but now I sell drugs (legally, in a pharmacy!)...much more better smileys/smiley2.gif
I couldn't imagine spending $200 on lotion...that's just NUTS!!! I spend maybe...$5 every couple of months?!?!?! bloody hell!
But, yes,working in retail for the last 5 years has shown me that people will be crazy at sale time...and it's SO bad!
