Oi vey!
Today marked a weekend sale of 50% off selected items store wide. There were signs posted all over town that said exactly what my subject says; "Savings Up To 50% - Storewide!"
Well, this doesn't necessarily mean that everything in the store is 50%. And it doesn't mean that everything on clearance is 50%, either. It's UP TO 50% off. So you can imagine there were quite a few upset customers. "Is this 50% off??" *Holds up a $300 camera* "No ma'am, I'm sorry. When the signs say 'storewide' it means that every department in the store is having clearance items on sale, but not that everything in the store is on sale."
I really fucking hate it when the guys up at the very top do this shit. I know that it brings the sales in, it brings customers in that wouldn't normally come to Kmart because they think everything in the store is half off. Well, I'm pretty sure that keeps some customers from coming back, after they've had to figure out that the sales signs are misleading. We associates get yelled at a lot by customers, even though it's not our fault, and we didn't make this stuff up, it's just something we're made to do. And I don't know why they're so worried about sales. Crap, it was busy today. And the day after Thanksgiving up until Christmas are going to be just like that. Only without the deception. Hopefully I'll know a lot more about where things are and what to do by that point because it's all still a little confusing right now.
Anywho, I'm poop, I think I might go take a nap and wait for Wes to gimme a call, since his team won and all, and he said it was a morning game.
