I work at Staples, have a stupid red shirt, name tag, and a yellow box cutter as well. I've had the stupidest and strangest things said to me. The strangest being a black guy walking up to me and saying

"Hey man, a hundred dollar hooker is still a hooker right?"

I reply "Yea I guess so"

To which his girlfriend replies "What the hell does he know, he's a white boy"

I work in retail myself, it's hard not to laugh every time I get asked. Which is probably 5 times a day on average. "Don't mind the store lanyard and the fact that im tidying clothes up, I just get bored and lonely."

[–]AFrogsLife 9 points10 points ago

People ask, because sometimes, you are off the clock or you are visiting a different store after your shift...I know this, I work at Wally-World, and sometimes shop a different location before going home to change...

And sometimes, there are folks around who are wearing the basic look, hanging out near the carts marked for employees, who are totally not employed there...

[–]StarScreamSamuri420 1 point2 points ago

I work at wally world as well, and even if I say I'm off the clock, they ask anyhow. Like, why ask me if I'm working if you're going to ask me the location of the car chargers anyhow?

[–]AFrogsLife 0 points1 point ago

This, too. I find that if you manage to look completely different on your "off-time" the customers don't bug you as much...But you have to really embrace different. I always were my hair one way at work, and completely take it down before I leave the time clock at the end of my shift. I bring in a jacket in a different color, and I don't get asked much...But there are some "regular" customers who know me anyway! lol

sometimes i don't know how to start a conversation with an employee while looking for help. an easy way is to ask someone if they work here, they'll say yes how can i help you, and then i tell them what i need.

many a time i've been searching for an employee for several minutes before finding you and i'm actually surprised that i've finally found you.

it's just an easy way for me to get you to ask me if i need help. if someone had noticed my confused high ass looking all lost and asked me if i need help i wouldn't have had to approach you in this awkward way.

[–]debaser11 1 point2 points ago

Yeah I feel like this is obviously the reason people do it, it's an easy way to start talking to an employee and get assistance.

[–]Jessumz922 5 points6 points ago

Dude i know exactly what your talking about, i work at meijer (its a superstore like walmart or costco) and i deal with this shit everday.

[–]Ozz1995 5 points6 points ago

ha, I work at a church bookstore and I always feel so sly and clever when I show up high

[–]astraltek 2 points3 points ago

haha I work at kmart! Some of the weirdest people on the planet shop there, and I get to deal with them for several hours a day. Trees are the only way I don't go crazy.

Note: I don't go to work high, but I smoke a j after every shift so I have something to look forward to :)

[–]hallucinogenius 4 points5 points ago

Don't wear a red shirt at Target unless you work there or are trying to troll people.

[–]Acorn_Pancake 2 points3 points ago

I work at CVS and I'll be standing there at the register in my blue shirt, with my name tag on, looking directly at the customer as they approach, each register says its closed except for mine, and they will stop and stare blankly around before finally looking at me as if I just magically appeared and ask "Are you open?" No, I'm just fucking standing here because I had nothing better to do!

[–]SpidermanJones 1 point2 points ago

This is involved with r/trees how? I'm sorry, I was expecting there to be something about trees. This just doesn't really belong here.

[–]DragENT 1 point2 points ago

Thank you! Please for the love of trees just post cannabis related matter!

[–]Zerg006 0 points1 point ago

I work at a Radioshack in a dead strip mall and when I'm sitting on the bench outside, I'll have people come up and ask me if we're open. No, it's my day off and I like sitting outside random stores

Person probably needed help so they asked if you were an employee.
