Lmao I needed this thread when I worked in retail
Ok here goes.
- This is not some rag market in Lagos where you can barter, this is a clothing store in the inner city in the UK. You will pay the price stated on the label unless it is in the sale. If you want the item head over to the till, if not then head to the exit.
- Having an attitude with the staff isn't going to make the item you want magically appear in the stock room.
- That's an interesting choice of shirt I've just caught you slipping into your bag, would you like to look at some jeans to go with it or should I call security?
- Shut that damn screaming baby up or have your partner take them out the store while you queue, and I thank you.
*deep breath* keep it cute and professional...
Also I don't know what was up with some of the families (almost always of a particular national background) when I worked in that school uniform shop.
It's a school uniform shop right, you only need a parent, and le child, that you are buying uniform for. Why are you also bringing the older adult siblings, the aunts, the uncles, grandma, a coffin, and the ghost of Ramadan past with you? I know you're from a very highly family-oriented culture, but this store is already a tiny shoebox without you bringing half of Lahore through the door with you.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
