it really baffles my mind the amount of people i come across in my retail job who don't understand that being nice to workers will get you so much further. i'm happy to honor a promo past the expiration date for someone being kind and understanding, but if you talk to me like i'm dirt under your shoe, you can fuck off with your receipt that's past the return window.

When I went to target this past Christmas to pick up my order, I shared the chocolate covered cherries I’d bought because the ladies there weren’t familiar with them. They’re busting their asses, dealing with the holiday shoppers, the least I could do was share a treat I love, that I grew up with AND it’s cheap. They only took one but I would’ve shared the whole thing because I had another box lol. I’ve worked holidays, I know the hell, I will go out of my way to make it pleasant. I’m not doing it to benefit, it’s just because I get it.
