Reply #72: not alone. in fact, retail stamped out any love for children i have.

[NuttyFluffers]

to be brutally honest, and i feel quite reluctant sharing this dark side, there was a point (which has been known to come back around the holidays) where i'd unconsciously break out into a wicked grin when i'd hear the sound of children crying. in fact, i've caught myself, after several hateful shifts of retail, lingering around just a moment or two longer in an area and sigh pleasurably when i heard a child cry. i guess serving hell spawn for hours on end helped bring out my inner evil.

i still believe that all members of society should be condemned to 2 years hard retail, preferrably at a toy store, in order to build a better society. you learn real fast to tip well, not be a nuisance, and always exhibit proper etiquette. i doubt others will always come away despising children, so i think retail 'national service' would be a good thing.
