MY manager is outselling me left & right because I keep having to step out to deal with problems; the other guy we work with(it's an independently owned kiosk with only myaelf, the manager, our other co-worker, and the owner who's never here) is talking sh!t behind my back to the owner, to take attention away from his own screw-ups. The owner, who after almost 5 months with the company doesn't have faith in my ability to work a full Sunday alone, and told me so on the phone, before telling me it's "not his place" to "interfere" with the business between me and my coworker. Hello, he @##$in owns the business, of course it's his place!

Don't feel bad. Having similar problems here. Except the customers don't even haggle over the price, they just grab it and run out the door. B@5tards.

I'd love for someone to grab it and run. I could use the excuse for violence. I'd love the chance to slide-tackle someone in this mall.

I chased one to his car one time and kicked the door shut on his leg. I got the accessory back and called the cops while holding the door on his leg. The dumb@$$ parked his car in an alley and had to slide from the passenger side in. 🤣 So, he could not start the car and take off. What a moron.

I hear ya. I just got a call from my landlord. Rent is due (past due) and business sucks so bad, I have not seen a commission check in two months and won't see one next month either. Needless to say.....eviction on Monday if rent is not paid = out of business. That's the bad part about owning the store.

I would love to have some ****-stain customers today. Unfortunately, I've been here for 7 hours and had one person stop to make a prepaid payment. I've still got another 5 hours to go before I go home too. ☹️
