Default Here's todays special...

I had another one this morning.........

We open the store at 9am... I know this because on the front doors the opening times are displayed in nice bright white LARGE letters and numbers.....

Anyway, not for the first time, at about 8:40am some moron tries to open the locked door.. The window shutters are down and the door is locked.. Now it's locked... He knows its locked because when he pulls it, it's... shut... It will not open.... So he pulls it again, and again, and yet again... As if by continuing to pull it the lock will release, he will walk in and find several assistants just waiting eagerly to serve him..

So I look out and he's just standing there.. He sees me, gestures and knocks on the door.. So I go over and he shouts through a locked door....

"Are you open?"

Now how the hell do you reply to that?

How much of a moronic fool do you have to be to say something so mindlessly stupid as that?

I really don't have much hope for the human race...

Same thing has happend to me! We have a large gate that we pull around the pharmacy when we're closed (as we are located inside a grocery store). I've had numerous incidents where the gates are pulled, lights off and the staff is bundled up in coats, ready to go home and some idiot walks up and asks if we're closed. No, we're really open. It's just that we're going on a long lunch break and will be back at 9 a.m. tomorrow...the sad thing is that these people are reproducing!

A co-worker just grabbed the yellow pages, looked at me and said, "what do you call it when you need your car repaired."

-_-

It's been a looong day.
