Retail Hell
Retail Hell: How I Sold My Soul to the Store | Freeman Hall
5 posts | 1 read
From Act I: "I think you left these behind," I said, handing them to her. This happens all the time when women try to return bags they've used. Tampons, lipstick, coins, Tic Tacs, and condoms are the top treasures found. "Greasy" let out a sigh as if I were the problem. "I really don't see what the problem is here. It's none of your business what I keep in my handbag." It is when my commission is at stake! I'm not your Designer Handbag Rental Service! My name is not BagBorrowOrSteal.com! This is a place Freeman Hall, a twenty-year veteran "on the floor," knows well. While delivering side-splitting stories alongside brutally cynical commentary, Freeman recounts his most shocking experiences in Retail Hell. From the time he was attacked by a customer's four-year-old, who grabbed onto his leg like a poodle and wouldn't let go, to the day he found the fitting room walls covered in s**t, Freeman has seen and heard (smelled and felt) it all! Horrifying and hilarious, this behind-the-scenes look at what really goes on at the Big Fancy Stores is rollicking, ready-to-wear wisdom for readers everywhere.

Reggie Omg this at my casino. Some people will tell me that they‘ve come here for years and that we‘re total bullshit and thieves and they‘re never coming back and I‘m like, who are you? I‘ve been there over 15 years and the last five people to tell me that, I haven‘t recognized them. Crazies. 24h

In our latest episode we discuss the etiquette of where to place your shopping cart once you finish shopping and then segue into the possibility (inevitability?) of fully automated grocery stores. I'd be curious to hear what you all think!
