Okay, normally I LOVE being in the fits.
It's what I'm best at, and it's where I get the best chance to make my sales goal (Something that hasn't been happening a lot lately because it is DEAD). But, at times, and certain days, things are just..... really really irritating. And I know I'm not gonna change everyone with this post, or make a difference. And I realize that these are just what pisses me off, and not everyone feels the same about some of these things. But I just need to vent. So, without further delay....
THE TOP FIVE WAYS TO PISS OFF YOUR FITTING ROOM ATTENDANT (Or whoever's working at the store you are shopping at).
#5: EXPECT US TO BREAK THE RULES FOR YOU. Like seriously, rules are rules and they exist for a reason. I don't care if someone else doesn't do it that way when you come to shop. They are supposed to, and if I break the rules for you then I have to break them for everyone and then we have more shoplifting and my butt is the one that gets in trouble. SO DON'T COMPLAIN WHEN I PUT A LIMIT ON THE ITEMS I LET YOU TAKE INTO THE ROOM WITH YOU. You have two legs and can trade out whenever you want!
#4: DON'T STOP AND LET THEM PUT YOU IN A ROOM. Like seriously. I am PAID to take care of you. I am there for three reasons: to make sure you don't steal, to make sure you have excellent customer service, and to make sure you love that forty dollar jacket and twenty dollar pair of jeans. I don't care if you don't buy everything you take in, BUT LET ME HELP YOU.
#3: STICK SOMETHING WHERE YOU KNOW IT DOESN'T GO. Like seriously, do you not see EVERY OTHER PERSON HANDING ME THE STUFF THEY DON'T WANT?!?!?! It doesn't go on the chair with all the hangers still in your fitting room or on that extra rack I have!!!! One step worse is when you try and put things back yourself. No offense, and I truly appreciate the thought, but it's never up to hanging standards, and you don't know where it goes, so it just makes a bigger mess for someone else to clean up. JUST GIVE IT TO ME. PLEASE.
#2: EXPECT ME TO KNOW EVERYTHING OR MAKE SOMETHING APPEAR OUT OF THIN AIR AND THEN GET MAD WHEN I DON'T OR CAN'T. Seriously! I don't have more in the back, I don't carry extra large or extra small, and I can't pull the dress out of my ear in the exact size you want!!!! And I don't know when I am gonna get more dresses or sweaters in or whyy we do things the way we do or why I can't let you take earrings or shoes into the fitting room. I just know that those are the rules and I have to follow them. And I don't appreciate you getting all huffy with ME because you are just a little too late and you can't get exactly what you want. IT'S NOT MY FAULT. And now, the whole reason I made this post, something almost every single person did yesterday, the one thing that pisses me off more than anything else.....
#1: LEAVE ALL YOUR CRAP IN THE FITTING ROOM YOU WERE IN WHEN YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE OVERFILLED RACK OF GO BACKS BECAUSE THREE OTHER PEOPLE LEFT ALL OF THEIR STUFF IN THERE. I am not kidding you, almost every single person did that yesterday and I was about to rip my hair out. It is the most disrespectful, rude, and lazy-ass thing you can do! I realize some places may actually WANT YOU to leave the stuff in the fitting room. That's cool if you are in their store. BUT MOST PLACES I GO TO DON'T WORK LIKE THAT. We may be paid to clean up after you, but it's kind of mean to just assume we will and that we don't care and stuff like that. It's mean and it makes our job harder. SO DON'T DO IT. Especially if you want us to actually WANT to help you or give you good customer service and not complain about you behind your back.
And now that I have THAT all off my chest, I want to know if you liked this kind of thing. Would y'all like to see more top five lists? More complaining about retail? Some survival advice for black Friday or just some general suggestions for making your retail job less.... awful? lemme know here or on twitter or instagram! :)
