Surreptishus Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) So... is being a sociopath required for working in food retail? Or is something that happens to the employees over the course of time? Edited June 9, 2006 by Surreptishus
astr0creep Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 So... is being a sociopath required for working in food retail? Or is something that happens to the employees over the course of time? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> From experience, it happens with time. No one should ever work in such a place for more than a year, unless they're goal in life is to run a restaurant. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
metadigital Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Yeah, that's what happens to all those postal workers in the States ... because they have a MANUAL SORTING OFFICE, the employees go 'round the bend after a few months ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

Dealing with customers and overroutine are two different things but both of them will eventually either make you go crazy or turn you into Hades(sorry, I'm in one of those moods today). http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
metadigital Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 ... Wouldn't that depend on whether the customers are acting all the same way ... like those dang little white peices of paper with the glued-on pictures and different writing! :angry: OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

After a while(aprox. 6 months) all customer are the same, which is potential jerks. Those being nice to you are nice jerks. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Oerwinde Posted June 9, 2006 Author Posted June 9, 2006 You should work at a convenience store. At least when the alcohal cutoff time you can get offers of sex by drunk girls if you sell them beer. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well the Subway I work in is in a convenience store. But its also in Canada, where beer isn't sold in convenience stores. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Midnight on June 24... :D http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) 11PM?!?!? Man, people would flip out if the cut off was 11PM here in Iowa. You know I shoudl do an experiment. Tell te alcohal buyers that the cut off is 11PM and see their reactions. HAHAHAHA! I know when the previous version of my store closed I told several customers that we no longer took US currency. The looks I got were great. Edited June 9, 2006 by Judge Hades

Most people try to get to the BC Liquor Stores because they're like 1-2 bucks cheaper than the cheap beer and wine stores, but the Liquor stores close at like 6.

alanschu Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 A liquor store can't stay open past 2 o'clock (last call for bars as well) where I live. The one I worked at would close at midnight though.

Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Yes, I know what Armed means. Mine used a 9mm handgun. Most probably a glock. How about yours?
metadigital Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 The gun would have cost more than he robbed. ^_^ He could have sold the gun and got more money! OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
alanschu Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Yes, I know what Armed means. Mine used a 9mm handgun. Most probably a glock. How about yours? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You had the foresight to even think about what type of gun it was?
Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) One, I am a gamer. Two, I was assigned to the Gunnery division on the ship I was assigned to when I was in the Navy. I took apart and cleaned 9mm, .45 handguns, and rifles as well as those big arse 5 inch cannons. Also it was a slow night and I was bored. I dragged out the robbery as long as I could by very slowly taking out the money from the drawer and studying him, the clothes he wore, and the handgun. Got a good 5 minutes out of the whole thing. Man, was he annoyed. Yes, I purposely annoyed a guy who had a gun at my head. Edited June 9, 2006 by Judge Hades
