in my shoe store that I work at I have described colors to the blind who come in to purchase shoes, I have helped women and men put on shoes if they can’t reach or have medical issues, ive dug through boxes and boxes to find shoes for people that are out of season, I do my best to save my customers ALL the money I can help them save, and I always try to make sure they leave happy and satisfied when they leave. I want them to trust me and come back to me when they need shoes again! It’s sales business and I wanna create a nice bond with my customers. I really do. But I get these people in my work that say stuff like “it’s her job to clean up our trash” or put away or shoes or put them back in the right spot etc then expect the same treatment as my sweet customers. They want coupons that I’m not gonna give them because they PURPOSELY are making my job hard. Just because it’s someones job to do something doesn’t mean you should give them more to do/make it harder on them. Be respectful. I don’t wanna sound lazy but I do so much already it gets exhausting.
What you don’t know about (some) shoe stores:
- sales associates and managers have to clean the entire store. we don’t have a janitor or anything.
- we do have restrooms, you just have to ask.
- please don’t be scared to ask where something is or if we can help you! We’d love to!!! (As long as you’re friendly (;)
- we also straighten all the shoes and almost daily have to stack and restock those shoes. we organize shoes by size (of course. here it is smallest on bottom largest on top), color, designs, material, laces or no laces, low or high top, etc.
- you need an ink tag off to try on a shoe? ask us to remove it so you may try it on! please though, return the box of shoes back to us so we can put the tag back on.
- honestly at my store I’m a manager but I can’t tell you how long shoe sales are going to be or when we’ll get the shoe you want in. In this company this is a low position. My store manager doesn’t even know these things! So if you hear there is a sale, hurry in while you can!
hey y’all working a full time job + I have a super heavy college schedule!
Sorry for slow replies or trades :3
