Boxing Day shoppers! - Shower of Bastards!

I sincerely hope that ALL of you Devilz found something better to do today than go shopping!
Had a hellish day with some of the stupidest customers today. No-one was really shopping, they were all just mithering. pestering twats!
One silly vacuous tart looking at some Merrill approach shoes wanted a size 6.

"Ooooh theyre abit tight, but Im definitely a size 6, What do you suggest?"

Me- (Already sick of her!) "A size 7!?"
Her-"No Im definitely a size 6!"
Me-"But you said Ooooooh theyre abit tight, try a 7, or I'll look for a 6 1/2"
Her-"No, I'll leave it, I dont really need these anyway!"
Me- (In my head)- "Well, why dont you fuck off home then!?"

Why the fuck do shops open on Boxing Day, IF ALL the stores closed the customers would have to wait until the 27th & we'd be able to enjoy Xmas.

I told the Manager that we should be armed on Boxing Day!
"What do you mean youre just looking? BLAM, BLAM! Shoulda stayed home, biatch!"

Do you need gloves for boxing day?

Isn't dealing with the public F U N???

I just spent the last 12 hours delevering late xmas gifts. "I paid for two day shipping! This is late! Your company sucks!" I wanted to carve a map to the three malls within 10 min driving distance on somebody's chest at the end of today...

So yeah, I feel your pain...

I dunno why its called Boxing Day (I guess I could Google it!), I take it you dont have Boxing Day over the pond then?

Yep. Dealing with Joe Public is an absolute joy. I LOVE selling things, but when people have clearly got nothing better to do but come in & piss you about it really winds me up!

Its been fecking freezin in Manchester today, these folks shoulda just stayed at home by the fire & watched crap on the Telly.
Woohoo. Im on day-off tomorrow! (Well, TODAY now! Its 1.30am here!)

We do have Boxing Day, Stu, but only North of the Border in Canada. Which, I believe, follows the traditions of the Crown.

But not in the US of A! We don't believe in that shit.

Only Santa!
