I’ve worked retail a few times, and I always just went and stood in the back for awhile, maybe took a shit, had a smoke, and then came back to tell them we still don’t have it. The best were the fucking clowns at home depot. My guy, you are in the fucking warehouse, there is no other storage. Luckily, at that home depot, there was an unsecured security door on the receiving area you could just pop out back and have smoke at.
You mean the clowns who used the app you tell them to use because none of you even know where things are anymore, to be told there’s 562 in the store, but there’s none on the shelf, but if we pester enough managers eventually, someone will get the lift and bring the box down that’s been right there the whole time? Those clowns? Cus Home Depot customer service has been shit since they stopped hiring actual trade professionals who know what they’re doing. You HAVE to be an annoying asshole or you’ll never get anything there anymore. I’ve literally had associates tell me “we’re out of stock” and I point up and go “what about those boxes right there??” followed by “oh, let me see if I can find someone allowed to use the ladder”.
Home Depot gets the customers they deserve for the “service” they now provide.
I don’t work there anymore, but you seem quite upset about Home Depot, lol. I said the clowns that demand you “check the back.” I could look up at the shelf and read the codes on the boxes. If there was one up there, I would grab it.
You also said “it’s a warehouse, there is no other storage”. Which is blatantly untrue. The storage is up above. So maybe “in the back” isn’t the right phrase, but it means the same thing: check your stock(and surprise surprise, when we make you do that, it’s suddenly there most of the time). It’s workers with this kind of attitude which is why customers don’t believe you when you say “were out”.
“Workers like you” “when we make you”
You are a ridiculous person and clearly have trouble reading. You probably roll into stores with your little dick energy, just ready to accost employees. How fucking pathetic. Nobody thinks you’re a “big man” when you act like this. You’re the walking butt of the joke and don’t even realize.
“I ignore people’s request and go take a shit and a smoke instead”. Yeah, workers like you. You’re the one being elitist calling customers “clowns” for daring to bother you at work. Oh boo hoo. You had to interact with people. Oh no.
Oh you mean when the website that you told me to check says it’s in stock, and I can see it on the top shelf with my own fucking eyes, and you insist it’s out of stock WHILE I’M POINTING AT IT asking for you to get the ladder. And I’m the clown. Home Depot and everybody who works there can suck a fat dick.
My favorite is when you tell them “your app says it’s in stock with 58,837 units but there’s none in the section they’re supposed to be” and then the employee pulls out their own phone, opens the same app, and says “well they should be in [same aisle you just told them didn’t have any]. Did you check there?”. It’s to the point that if I ask a question and they pull their phone out and start to open the app, I just walk away. They’re useless. But I guess I’m a clown for expecting a service worker to provide the services they’re paid for and not just tell me to “check the app”.
