Today I bring another Mental Monday Escapade.
As having dealt with unusual customers all my life, I feel that they are a character building experience. A way to gain patience and understanding. Also, a way to build a will of iron and an appreciation for the mundane days where nothing blew up in your face.
Today's story comes from a coworker of mine. A fine specimen of retail management, who has dealt with so many trying customers that she lost count and can't remember. This one happened just recently. Her namesake will be kept confidential and we will just call her Mimi for fun! (and because I think the name is cute, like her)
She was working on a busy day, and a customer came to return items. With the receipt and everything, Mimi had no trouble returning the 2 pairs of jeans she brought back. One pair was a little damp, but Mimi refunded the lady her money and let her go her way.
When putting away the jeans, another manager took the jeans and felt the dampness. She smelled them and found out what the liquid was.
It was Pee!
With a visible shudder, I pity Mimi for having to touch that. And wonder what on earth would possess someone to return pee soaked clothes. that's just... ew!
Awesome now I can comment. Keep up the good work.
