Comment | This is ancient, but I used to work the Next in the Glasgow Fort. Was such a fucking shambles. My first proper job, was left solo on the tills in the Home department during Christmas. Did my best to manage all the sales and returns I could, but without adequate access to the systems, I couldn't do them all. Had to try and summon staff from elsewhere to help me, and thankfully all the queue were super nice to me about it. They all gave the boss an absolute fucking walloping when he showed up, gave him right good lip about leaving teenage me alone to handle it all.
Once got told by the boss prick to build a wardrobe for display. Couldn't get some of the dowels to fit the holes, and he got agitated about it. Took one from me, forced it into the hole and split the absolute fuck out the shite MDF board that the wardrobe consisted of. He went off in a huff and said we didn't need it anymore.
Retail has to be the worst type of employment. If it isn't the customers, its always yer boss. |
