retail etiquette

alternatively titled, “how to be a decent human being to people who are suffering enough as it is to help your supposedly entitled ass”

1. get off your cell phone.         - cashiers ( not to mention the people patiently waiting in line ) don’t need to hear about how little Kelsey’s doing on the soccer team, or how your mother-in-law is coming into town for her birthday and you’re just SO INCONVENIENCED by having to purchase paper plates and cheap napkins before her arrival.  just tell them you’ll call them back when you’re done.       - if you can’t be assed to think about other people, at least acknowledge the cashier with a smile or a wave.  if they speak to you or ask you a question, don’t shush them.  tell your BFF Tanisha to hold on for what might be a total of four seconds. 

2.  when an item doesn’t immediately scan, please say anything but “oh, it must be free!”  please, dear god, anything but that.  you’re not being funny.  or clever.  or original.  they hear this at least ten times a day.  

3.  the number of items listed on the express lane is not a suggestion.  if you know that you have more items, don’t go there.  it’s that simple.  the express lanes have to be kept open for people who have small orders, so they’re not stuck behind someone with a cart piled high with what’s maybe a week’s worth of food and clothes you’ll inevitably be returning. 

4.  while unloading your cart, put the big items ( i.e., packages of toilet paper, crates of water bottles ) last.  there’s very little room for the cashiers to work with.  when you’re done unloading your cart, pull it up to the loading space and start putting the bags and other items into your cart instead of standing there and staring off into space or fiddling with your phone. 

5.  when you ask a cashier a store-related question ( i.e., how many coupons are allowed per order, whether or not you’re getting the right BOGO deal, etc. ), and they answer you politely and confidently, don’t challenge them.  they work there.  you don’t.  they know the way the store works.  you don’t.  if they’ve forgotten something or made a mistake, by all means, ask them about it – but do it politely.  we all make mistakes.  

6.  do not – i repeat, do not – put your money down on the counter or conveyor belt, especially if the cashier is visibly ready to take it.  hand it over to them.  if you need to count out some change, tell them so they can wait.  oh, and if they’ve already cashed you out, don’t hand over some random amount of change after the drawer’s open.  

7.  if your card’s declined, it’s not their fault.  don’t ask them why it wasn’t accepted.  they don’t know.  and don’t get angry or impatient with them, or insist you have money because you just deposited a check – they do not care.  they cannot help you with problems that are clearly on your end.  

8.  do not yell at a cashier.  once again, for the people in the back:  do not yell at a cashier, especially someone who’s clearly new to the job.  would you appreciate being yelled at for something beyond your control, or a simple, fixable mistake?  no.  so don’t do it to them.  

9.  if you get an answer you don’t like from a cashier and ask to speak to a manager, guess what?  you’re most likely gonna get the same answer from them.  here’s a news flash: the customer is not always right, the company will not always pander to your temper tantrums, and making a scene in front of a line of people with quickly-diminishing patience will not change their minds. 

10.  overall, please just be polite.  these people are working their asses off to help their customers, most of which don’t appreciate their efforts at all.  they’re constantly ignored, mistreated, questioned and degraded, and over time, it really does a number on their emotional state.  just be kind and courteous.  they’re human beings, not mindless drones.  smiles and nice conversations go a long way.  

if anyone else has anything to add, feel free.  floor associates, back room / production workers – go crazy.  share your woes and pet peeves.

CHARLIE’S CATS

Charlie didn’t live in a regular house.  He lived in a nice little trailer.  He had a kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a living room.

 On Monday morning, when Charlie went into the living room with his bowl of cereal, there was a cat. Just a medium, sized cat with tiger striped fur and a nice long tail.  Charlie didn’t really like cats much, he liked dogs better.  “Now, how did that cat get here?” Charlie asked himself.  “Oh well, I’ll just put it back outside”.  So, that’s exactly what Charlie did.  He opened the door of his trailer, but the cat didn’t want to go out.  Charlie picked up the cat and took it outside and put it on the ground.

 On Tuesday, when Charlie went into his living room, guess what, there was a cat.  It was a different cat this time.   This one was black, with little white socks and a white spot on its chest.   “Now, how did that cat get here?” Charlie asked himself again.  Just like the day before, he opened the door of his trailer.  This cat ran out by itself.

 Charlie was very confused.  Where did the cats come from and how did they get into his trailer? Charlie had to solve this mystery. He checked the windows to see if they were closed all the way.  He checked the doors to see if they were closed all the way.  Everything seemed to be OK.

 On Wednesday there were no cats, so Charlie kind of forgot about the mystery. 

Thursday morning, Charlie woke up to the sound of meowing.  Lots of meowing.  It wasn’t coming from the living room.  It wasn’t coming from the bedroom.  It wasn’t coming from the kitchen.  That left just one room.  Charlie opened the bathroom door slowly and carefully.  What a surprise he got!  The bathroom was full of cats.  Big cats, medium sized cats, little cats.  Black, brown, striped, gray, white.  Every kind of cat you can imagine, all meowing loudly.

 Now this was getting very strange.   How were the cats getting in and why did they want to come in?  Again, he picked them up one by one and put them outside.  “Will they stay out or will they be back again?” wondered Charlie.

 That was when Charlie started feeling a little chilly.  He didn’t think about the weather much, but he did notice that it had been pretty cold and it rained a lot, too.  “Why is it so cold in here?” Charlie said to himself as he was cleaning up after the cats. Then he found the answer to the mystery. “Well, look at that!” exclaimed Charlie. “There’s a hole in the floor. That must be how the cats got in.”

The cats were climbing into Charlie’s trailer to get warm and dry.  Pretty smart cats.

 Charlie patched up the hole and never saw a cat in his trailer again.  The next day he went to the animal shelter and adopted a dog.
