Question for you kiosk workers, or, well, anyone.

Sooo when you have to use the restroom... can you leave your kiosk or leave the store to do so?
I think I can, but I'm too afraid to! And I really gotta!
AHHHHHHHHHhhh

I'm in a warehouse so I just put a sign up with the time I'm coming back and go. I don't know about mall kiosks.

I'm doing a great job holding it.
Hopefully I can keep it up for another 3 hours.

I lock it up and put a sign up that says I'll be back. They can't keep me in this box like that. Especially today, I'm working 10am-9pm.

Alone? 😳

I was working with someone up until 4, and I was going to go before he left but he didn't tell me he was leaving. Just left. Now I'm stuck here.

Yep, alone all day. I was having a problem with my contact too. It was bothering me so bad, luckily my roomate works in the mall and he brought me a contact case and my glasses. I would really say that they have to let you go. I think that somehow the kiosks get away with stuff a store never would. When I worked at Circuit city, if you worked an 8 hour shift, you got an hour lunch (unpaid). I don't really have any breaks here so, I figure I can use the restroom or get something to eat if I need to.

Well I know I could message someone I was leaving so they can watch the kiosk for the 5 minutes it will take for me to scurry to the bathroom and come back.
But... I hate doing that. So I'll just kill my kidneys.

Allelujah for corporate retail stores with our EMPLOYEE ONLY men's and women's rest room in the back hall. Had a poor customer blow out his britches just the other day as he tried to sprint across the parking lot to the grocery store. All you heard was a yell, some gurgling and then the most aweful stench rose up.
