So, this morning I went to a closeout sale at a store. (Store itself is not closing, just the video game area).
The store had a lot of games for great prices. I have been periodically going back & forth getting a few games for myself. Recently the prices were so great I decided to get a bunch to try for myself, give as gifts, trade, & sell (I'll be honest, the majority is to trade, sell, & keep for me lol).
Now, I decided this yesterday after having gone & seeing all the games. I head there today with my parents who told me yesterday that after I found the sale this angry looking sales associate working there immediately headed to the game sections & took a few for herself. She was there this morning. She watched me so angrily while I took a bunch of games, all while talking to a sale associate next to her (who was very nice to me). We overhear her say, "They were here yesterday buying games.". At first thought I guess she wanted these games but they had been here on good clearance for over a month. I dismiss it as her just being gossipy.
We wait on line to pay & unfortunately get stuck with her instead of the other register. As I walk up she whispers quite loudly, "Jesus...". And if that weren't rude enough, she takes her sweet time entering all the games in. On purpose. As we're paying my parents realize they have a point card for the place, they say this aloud. The lady immediately hits the print receipt button on the register & tells us we will have to wait to get the points. Wait for the next transaction to finish that is. Which is a big one. So we stand there for around 10-15 minutes waiting. When the transaction is done, she takes my mothers point card & puts the points on it in seconds. We had to wait almost 20 minutes for something that only needed a few seconds to be done. I'm pretty sure the lady was clearly doing all of that out of spite.
How many of you have had run ins with rude sales associates when taking advantage of a sale? Especially when you were doing nothing to really provoke them.
