Over here finding the box full is the exception.

And what do you do if you get an empty box then?

That's rather irresponsible of the stores... :)

It's so annoying to get home with an empty box. It's like buying a pair of pants and bring them home only to find out that the ink thingy alarm has not been removed and the store has just closed :disagree:
Then you have nothing to wear when going out to the disco later.

You shoot the store clerks... nah, we don't really get empty boxes, there's too few of them in the store anyway (low sales and all). It was more of an observation about the chance of getting screwed over is bigger here, so we're more paranoid.

Ouch...you could try taking the thingie out, but you run the risk of it leaking...

If it leaks, then those pants are going to have a nasty stain... :).

Shops are usually far too polite for my liking, always giving in to my demands and depriving my of the chance to make a scene :devious:

That's what power tools are for. :devil: Too bad someone couldn't listen to me and had to ruin the damn shirt... :disagree: but i guess the hair will hide the nasty stitch job.

I just read in the paper today that customers generally think clerks or shop assistants (or whatever it's called) are seriously rude and pissed off. But honestly! Those customers have not met themselves! :disagree:

AMEN SISTER!!!

Gees! I know many countries require 2 years of manditory military service. I think the USA should require 2 years of manditory RETAIL service. Customers would be SO much nicer.

The thing is that I really wanna help them but I don't like those customers who try to tell me how to do my job. WHILE pointing their finger at me :disagree:
I guess you have the occasional idiot customers too huh? ;)

I've been called a liar at work by a person because she believed we were secretly harboring an apple pie recipe.
