—The Starving Stylist
I’ve learned to hate my job as a high end retail sales associate. The biggest pet peeve is the fact that I don’t understand how some people could have the audacity to barter at such exclusive high end retail stores like Louis Vuitton, Versace or Chanel. It’s like a sick joke and you always hope the customer will be say, “PSYCH! Just kidding!” right after your jaw drops in terror. But NOPE, some of these folks are actually dead serious.
Sure, they can fork out a couple thousand dollars with ease for a cashmere sweater with a tiny brand logo on the chest, but they ALWAYS want some kind of deal or freebie along with it. This ain’t a damn BOGO- “Buy one get one free” event at Playless Shoes, so please save yourself some dignity and save your discount comment elsewhere!
But sometimes, the worst part is when you have kindly told the thrifty cheap customer that there is no discount or deal on the item, they look at you as though you came from another planet or worse, they give you a PERVY glare in hopes for a little something else... *rolls eyes* AGURH, I honestly do not get paid enough money for the kind of ‘abuse ’ I go through at work!
