-$BlogItemTitle$>
Yesterday, went porchos with Kevin and met up with Emily at Burwood and got our hair cut. I'm finally happy wiht my cut, and my fringe is the way I want it. THe only problem is that my skin is horrible with a fringe, and my forehead gets all pimply. But I'm gonna have to keep my fringe down for a while first, so that my hair actually settles down, before I start pinning it up once in a while again. I can feel the side of my face already pimpling up. Eurgh. Can't wait til I'm 18; doctor said my pimples should have cleared by then. Fingers crossed they do, I can't bloody take it anymore.
So work work work and work. Yes, that's my life at the moment. I'm really liking Myer now. Everything's becoming all homey, and I don't feel like such a noob anymore. :) The registers are my best friends. Lol, they're so fun.
But as usual, there is always that ONE customer that kills the day. For today, it was some Shang lady. Eurgh. So Myer's doing this buy 2, get the cheaper one half price thing, so this lady strolls in, and tells me to get her this pair of heels that were $60. She finds a pair of Grosby slippers for $16, and asks if she can get the heels half price, and obviously, that is a big nono. She then finds another pair of heels for $90, and ends up sitting there deciding which ones to get. She suggests all these outrageous deals with me, pure Chinese style, and I just wanna say, this aint the bloody market! Like seriously, if you're gonna buy shoes from MYER, quit the cheapness and be a man. So she finally decides to get the two pairs of heels, so I put the Grosby slippers away back into the storeroom. I take her to the registers, and inspect the shoes in front of her eyes one last time. It's at THIS POINT, she realises the $90 heels were a display shoe and looks kinda worn. She then DEMANDS that I give her a discount, but pffts, as if woman. I've never given a discount to a display shoe before, and I cannot give you one now, for the main reason that you piss the hell out of me. If only I could have said that last bit. So she begs taht I call my manager and ask. So I call Jimmy, and I explain the situation, and tell him her suggestion of me taking the 50% off the more expensive shoe. Obviously, a big nono, and Jimmy told me to just give her a 5% discount, simply because he felt sorry for me. Gotta love Jimmy. So I tell her the deal, and she acts disgusted at teh offer, and tells me she wants to get the Grosby slippers now. So after ALL THAT, I had to go into the storeroom again, and get the Grosby slippers. And this bloody happened right before I got off work. ARGH. Chinese ladies should never shop in Myer. They belong to the market!
So yes, that's my rant for today. Tomorrow is another long day. Mum's having a lunch at my place with her fellow bitches from church, and I have to help her in the morning, chopping up crap. When her whole thing starts, I should be heading out to Bondi or whatever, to see the Blaxcell St kids. Time for the yearly reunion again, but this time, it seems kinda... unspirited. Lol, it's late, and my speech is not very smooth. Anyway, we'll see how that goes, and then I got work from 5:30 to 9:30.
Yipee
