Why Working in Retail Is Like the Worst Torture Ever

Or you just feel like doing this every day:

And your daily routine feels a lot like this:

When a customer asks to speak with your manager:

When a customer tells you, “This other place has that cheaper!”

Or when you meet new employees for the first time:

When you have to do the dreaded “clopen,” closing and opening the next morning:

When your day-to-day thoughts consist of this:

Well, either that, or this:

When you’re the only person working the cash register and the line is starting to get huge:

And then a customer spends five minutes digging around for change and just pays with a bill anyway:

When a customer tells you to get something from “the back”:

When a customer says, “Your job must be really easy!”

When you realize you’ve been working at your job for way longer than you originally planned:

When something like THIS happens:

Which basically just means it’s time again:

When Christmas music makes you want to kill yourself:

And holiday shoppers start to look a lot like this to you:

And this becomes your new catchphrase:

Actually, the whole holiday season is basically like this:

When you realize that people like this definitely do not exist:

When you have to take inventory:

When a customer thinks this will somehow help:

Or that you rang up the wrong price:

Or that this is a hilarious joke:

And all you want to do is say this:

When you have to grab something from an unreasonably high height:

When you have to clean the bathrooms…or anything for that matter:

When all your friends are excited about this weekend, and you realize you have to work Saturday and Sunday:

When the total is $20.22 and the customer hands you two $20 bills:

When a customer demonstrates his or her listening skills like this:

When your relationship with your manager is basically like this:

When you…wait, nevermind. Everything is the worst about retail. EVERYTHING.
