    The Eyebrow Lady and Gel Eyeliners by littlelies

    Terrance wasn't sure on how he began work at a cosmetics store, but sure enough, it seemed like an easy job. And it was! For the first week, at least. He happily chatted with the ladies and gents who came in to buy makeup, showed them around the store, and gave them recommendations that his manager told him to give the customers.

    "Yes! That eyeliner is new," Terrance said, when someone stopped to look at a new display. "It seems very nice, one of our other saleswoman had it on when her boyfriend broke up with her, and it didn't smudge when she cried!" He excitedly announced. A little while later the girl he worked with dragged him to the back by his ear.

    "Terry! You can't just say that stuff! That's my business and none of yours," She scolded, giving him a glowering look that made him scuttle away.

    Terrance never had any interest in cosmetics, but he enjoyed the simple job and nice people that came with with it. Until one day, he noticed a middle aged woman walk in through the door. He bounded over to her to greet her saying, "Hello! Welcome, is there anything you're looking for?"

    But, she didn't answer him. She shoved past Terrance and began doing her her whole face of makeup with the testers throughout the store. And then left. Terrance stood awestruck as she left. He didn't even get to see her face. "That was weird," He muttered, but went to clean up the store anyways.

    The next day she came again. Terrance wasn't sure if he should greet her or not, so he observed the lady. She used the same items as before... but he noticed that she overdrew her eyebrows down to her temples. Terrance let out a small gasp of shock and wondered what to do. He hovered around the isle she was in for quite some time before deciding what to do. He marched over to he and tried to gather up his courage.

    "Ma'am, if you're not going to buy anything... could... you please..," Terrance started out strong but ended up stuttering as the woman turned to coldly glare up at him. Her icy eyes sent shivers down the brown-eyed Kalon. "Right, uh, I'll be in the nail polish section if you need me..." So, Terrance went. And the lady left with her horrendous eyebrows after putting on her full face of makeup.

    When Terrance got home he did some brainstorming. He figured if the lady came back again he would just have to remove her with force.

    She was there. But instead of using the same eyeliner that she had the past two days, she was using a new brand. She stood there with a brush and a pot of gel eyeliner before her, peering into the mirror to sloppily apply some to her eyelids. Terrance fluttered to her side and boldly said, "Ma'am, please leave. This is the third day you've been here without buying anything."

    She whipped around in response and screamed, "Let me do my makeup in peace, dammit!" Terrance pulled away from the lady violently, visibly startled, but he instantly grabbed her arm gently, trying to pull her out of the store. The woman struggled against Terrance and two were caught in a small tug-o-war. All the other employees and customers stopped to view the small fight going on between the eyebrow lady and the store salesman who looked like he was about to cry. Finally the woman took the eyeliner brush coated in black eyeliner and madly scribbled all of Terrance's face before leaving the store with a huff, muttering obscenities.

    Terrance sunk onto the shop's marble floor and let out a sob of relief, then he started to cry. The other saleswoman ran over to him and knelt to his level. "Terry! Why are you crying?" She asked, mortified.

    "The- the eye.. eyebrow lady," He sniffled out while wiping his arm across his cheek to remove any tears. Terrance knew he sounded crazy, but had no other way to put it. He limply let his arm down after wiping up the tears.

    The saleswoman he worked with gasped when she saw his face. "Come over here everybody! Terry here has just cried his eyes out and wiped his cheeks fervently!" She called out while everyone flocked around Terrance, "This newer eyeliner seems to be waterproof and smudge-proof!"

    And so that day, Terrance sold a lot of gel eyeliners, but he cried a lot more when he got home.

    The End

    Worst retail expierence:
    Oddly enough, Miles' worst experience with retail was before he started working. After he applied for the job, the company called him to schedule an interview. He slept in late, and ended up missing the call altogether. He called back the next day, only to find out that the manager was unavailable, and he had to call back a few days later. After playing ping-pong with them for a little over a week, the interview was scheduled for a day another week away, which annoyed Miles' to no end. He just wanted to know if he got the job or not. The entire interview was so awkward because of the back and forth phone calls that he couldn't look his future employer in the face the entire time. Though he later found out that he got the job, after two more weeks of juggling phone calls, he claims he's never had a worse experience.

    Name: Alice
    Gender: Female
    Worst retail expierence:

Alice is considered more of a Style then a Sales person at the SunShack, in which she sell all sorts of sunglasses, rather its high fashion like Gucci, Burberry, Bvlgari and Ray ban, to sport such as Maui Jim and Oakly. SunShack is a rather fun environment where its up beat and very chaotic at times, though Alice thrives in the chaos, some times things can push her over the edge. There was one experience that almost made her quite on the spot, because this part time job was not worth the harass.

Alice was working alone one day, it most had been a Tuesday or Wednesday for there was no need for a mid shift to come in to do double coverage. The time ticked by slowly and with that she was looking forward to going home, and they girl that would be takeing the night shift would be there shortly. Well five minutes before the night shift girl was meant to arrive, a customer came in and was looking around and dropped his glasses and the leans popped out and disappeared. "Looks like its time to retire these, don't you think?" the customer said to Alice and laughed rather oddly. Alice putting on a smile laughed and told him "Atless it happen here" and the customer agreed.

Now Alice had worked at an outlet in which everyone liked to haggle for coupons, and lower mark downs which she couldn't do and often had to deal with people that tried to push for better prices. Well the customer that was in the store was looking for a cheap pair of glasses, which at SunShack ran from 50-100 dollars a pop. "I want something that will make me look good, something that will make the ladies want me" He told Alice. Alice frowned on the inside, it would take more then a paper bag on his face to make him look good, but of course she kept that to herself. "I'm afraid you will not find anything like that over at our clearance section, all of these are out of style and that is why they are so cheap." Alice told him the truth on that, sales items where things that where sitting to long in inventory or just not as popular as some designers had hoped.

Once the customer had forgot about the budget and told Alice to show him something really nice, she went over to the high fashion that would really be flashy and fab, after trying on many pairs that guy turned to her "Ok lets skip this bull, show me, what the best of the best in this store." He asked and reminded Alice he wanted the ladies to be all over him. "That would be the Maui Jims, the best in the store, with the best quality and leans you can buy." She went back and showed him her personal fave, a thick plastic wrap around with the blue leans. One look at the price and the guy then changed him mind "They are not going to care about brand, they care about looks show me something else." His voice raised, he was obviously unhappy. Apparently he didn't want to spend 350 dollars. So it was on to Oakly, they guy obviously need a square frame to stand out from his very hat round head. Once she suggested an Oakley the guy started laughing at her "Are you for real, this piece of trash really?" At this moment the night shift girl had walked in and was witnessing the whole blow up.

"You have no idea what your doing sweetheart, you have no taste and I have no clue why you are even working here. How did you get Hired? you have no chance making it in the fashion would and you should flat out quite you are horrible and if I was your boss you wouldn't have lasted a Day. You don't know how to do your job and you should just give up and go home. You have no right being here." Alice clenched her teeth and bit her cheek. The last thing she wanted to do was give him the satisfaction of crying and with that she brought Erica the night shift over to help him and as she went to the back room he continued to yell at her and scare off the other customers in the store.

After calling her manager and getting some advice she tried to pull herself together and compose herself. Erica open the door and peaked in "He wanted to talk to you" Alice frowned, she wanted nothing to do with him. But she now has something in her back pocket. She walked out and the first thing he said to her was "So did you have time to cool down" Alice gave him a wicked smile "I did, I called my manager and got some advice." The Customer looked pleased and surly though that the manager would take his side and asked "What did he have to say?" Alice stood up straight and said "For causing a disturbance and harassing me, I am to call security and have you kicked out of my store, we do not do service with the likes of you" She then picked up the phone and called security. She would not be humiliated in public and in her store any more.

    Worst retail expierence: Macey's worst experience in retail has got to be the time that she had one of her employees order 20 maroon shirts, but he had accidentally added a "0" at the end of 20. Yup, you guessed it. A few days later they got boxes and boxes full of nothing but maroon shirts, and a majority of the store was just filled with maroon shirts as they desperately tried to sell them all. They were literally drowning in maroon and it was the worst thing Macey ever had to deal with.

    Name: Pleiadies
    Gender: Female
    Worst retail expierence: The time is 1:03 am and Pleiadies would normally be tucked in bed, sleeping soundly, but not tonight, er, this morning. Instead, the sound of mad rushing and christmas songs fill her ears and her eyes hold a dead stare as she stands at her register. It was the day she'd been dreading since she took up this job. Black Friday.

    At least she got an easier job this year, if it could be called that. Honestly she didn't know what she would do if she had to rush around monitering customers all nigh-morning. Letting out a sigh, she watched as the first customer literally ran to her register. Letting out a sigh, she gave a fake smile and barely got out a 'Hello,' before the customer threw his items at her and her smile disapeared. It's only been a second of actually working and I already want to leave! she bitterly thought, counting the items as she scanned them. One... Two... Three... Fou-,Stopping her count she looked up at the customer.

    "Excuse me sir, but this product has a limit, only three of them can be bought by one individual person at a time," Pleiasies voice was sickingly sweet as she spoke, the fake smile back on her face, "I'm afraid one of these is going to have to be put back."

    A look of irratation passed on the customer's face as he brought a hand to the counter. "I've been waiting outside since three in the afternoon. I grabbed those items first, rightfully they are mine. I'm a paying customer, I should get them!"

    And whose fault is that? It was you who waited out so long. "I'm sorry sir, but I have to follow the store's policy." She replied, as she took the item of the conveyor belt to be reshelved, however the customer suddenly reaching over and yanking it from her hands, cuased her to loose her grip and balance. Falling backwards, she mumbled out a string if curses at the customir before ringing her manager for backup.

    With her manager now there to take care of the sitituation, Pleiadies was moved from the front register to the chaotic storefront. For a while she walked around, pushing through crowds, assisting customers, and letting them know about the store's Black Friday policies. Before she knew it, a few hours had passed and Pleiadies decided to take a well earned break in the backroom.

    Coming back to the storefront, she silently cursed as looked at the scene unraveling before her. A literal fistfight had broken out over what appeared to be the last gaming system in stock. Other employees were attempting to break the fight, however it appeared other customers were joining in, fueled with a desire to join in the ruckus. All the while, Jingle Bell Rock played on in the background. Whipping out her phone, Pleiadies quickly dialed the police before hurring back to seek refuge in the backroom until they showed up.

    It's safe to say Pleiadies never worked on a Black Friday again, instead resorting to fake sick during the weekend in hopes of never having to experence that again.

    Worst retail experience:
    The excited screams of children... my favorite...
    I didn't want to work here but I need this job. I grumbled as I fix the shelves of toys. As soon as I finished, a child ran over and knocked down everything again. GREAT. I picked up the toys from the ground and began to shift everything back into place. "Excuse me mam. Umm... Do you know where the electronics section is?" a female kalon asked me. I quickly pointed to the direction of the electronic section of the store. "Thank you.." she said and quickly skittered away. I finished cleaning up the isle and moved over to the next to put the new toys that came in today. I could hear young girls giggling and failing at pretending to be an adult in the isle next to the one I'm currently in. Ignoring them, I open up the box of brand new toys. Frozen dolls. I can't believe this movie is still popular. The giggling grew louder as I filled the shelves. "I hope they don't come over here," I mumbled to myself.

    Unfortunately for me, the moved to the isle I'm working in. The giggling turned into screeches as they bolt over to grab a doll and in that process knock me over. "Ouch! HEY! Watch where you're going!" I shouted at them in fury. The giggling and screeches stopped and whimpering began. "Oh great..." I thought to myself, "This can't get any worse." Out of nowhere the mother ran over to the girls and glared at me. Of course, I glared at her. "What did you do to my girls?!?" She screamed at me. "Ask them what they did to me." I replied. "I DON'T CARE!" the mother screeched. I can see their resemblance. "Listen woman. I don't care who you are or what you are. You have terrible parenting skills. You can't even watch your children correctly." I growled. The mother was taken aback as she didn't expect an employee to smack talk back. "I'm calling your manager!" She threatened. "Fine with me." I calmly said. That set her off even more. "YOU! I'M GETTING YOU FIRED." she screeched loudly enough to hurt my ears and her to turn red like a tomato. I was not having anymore of this so I said to her, "Listen. You are letting your emotions take over. Please calm down. I will move away now and don't follow me." Apparently, I said something I shouldn't and she punched me right in the face and fell onto the floor. At this moment, her two girls stopped crying and stuck their tongue at me. "Oh dear... you shouldn't have done that~" I said in a mocking tone. The two girls and the mother froze in fear. I chuckled and stood up with a crazed smile on my face. The next thing I know, I have beaten up the mother and her two girls were huddling up in fear. "You should've stopped your mother, you brats." I growled at them and walked away.

    Surprising enough, I wasn't fired and I didn't gather a crowd during this time.
    But even so, it was the worst day ever. They never did come back to the store. Good riddance.
