Someone also spilled the entire bottle of french dressing onto the floor and all down the side of my bar.

Honestly, working in retail will teach you what patience really means.

Fucking dicks.

Anywho, I know what retail can do to you, but I enjoy my coworkers, so I enjoy my job.  It's a social thing really in a tiny store like mine.

Thats a lot of celery. Where do you work?

---

In a grocery store. I work the salad bar/produce, and floral.
But today it was like every single customer was just walking over to push my buttons.

As if spilling dressing wasn't enough, this lady bumped into our olive oil display and broke a bunch of bottles.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to get olive oil up completely off of a laminate floor?
I hope she felt horrible.

I get to chop strawberries at work.

I chop everything.
Quite literally every single vegetable and fruit we have, I've cut.

Sometimes I'll get a little bit creative with our desserts and make something up. People go crazy over strawberry topped anything.

I don't have to cut anything much except strawberries(every shift) and brownies every once and a while.
But I hate scraping chocolate off of the floors :(

Ugh, we had so many people ask us last week for "the strawberries from last week". Everyone wanted to know what was so good about them, if they were some special kind.
I had to bite my tongue to keep from telling them that about 60% of the strawberries from that week were rotten.

This one little old lady told me that she wanted them because she put them in her cereal every morning, and told me they make her day worth going through.

Strawberries are the shit, apparently.

why?

---

Cos it's what I get paid to do.
It's not a bad job or anything. I love everything about it (except having to bring in the soup...those things get hot and we don't have protection from the scalding metal pots they're in).
