Shop Talk
Public service announcement.
If you walk up to a store and all the lights are off, the open signs are dark, and the store hours sign that's right in fron of you says we open in half an hour, WE'RE CLOSED! Trying every door, and looking in at me like a tool isn't going to make us magically open. Come back later.

Not only that, but when we are all gathered in a circle around one person who is speaking to us, odds are we are in a meeting. I guess one guy thought we were all just doing it for gits and shiggles so he pulled on the door as hard as he could nearly ripping his arm out of the socket. It made such a loud noise that everyone turned and looked at him and the assistant manager laughed as hard as she could at him and I'm sure that he heard her.
...
But... but! I'm important! You have to let me in early! Dont you know who I am? I use my phone for business and you are personally costing me thousands of dollars every minute you make me wait! Open this door! NOW!!!!

I had a cust call our store at 3:00 pm stating that he was driving 4 hours to get here. I told him that at 7:00 pm on the dot we close our doors.
He shows up at 7:03 pm and yelled at me through the door because I wouldn't open up for him. I told him there was a store 30 miles back. I think that made him even more angry.
I laughed.

we had this meeting on sun and the store was closed. and since we would be on the sales floor doing traing we had White sketch paper(like big rolls of it) covering the door. with ,mind you, two sandwich boards outside saying we were closed tody. AND two signs on each door stating we were closed. Midway through our meeting this guy opens the door, which was locked, he pulled so hard (because the top and bottom locks werent locked) the middle lock came apart and opened. Then asked "You guys open?"..... my tech walked over and said "didnt you see the sign were closed today buddy" he got mad and walked off cussing. AWESOME
