I Miss All The Fun

I swear all the fun stuff happens when I'm not there.

Our night shift girl got 'assaulted' last night.

Apparently this drunk woman got dropped off at our store. She went up to the register and started yelling at the night shift girl, who we will call Callie.

She started yelling at Callie that she needed to make a phone call, and Callie told her to use the pay phone outside, which only made the drunk girl angrier.

So the drunk girl pulls out her cell phone and proceeds to go towards the back of the store and do some drunk dialing. At this time, Callie grabs one of our magazines from the magazine rack (against our rules) and leans over the counter, reading all about Sandra Bullock or Twilight, or whoever is on the cover this week.

Drunk girl comes back up to the register and continues yelling at Callie again. Callie ignores her and keeps reading, and then the drunk girl tries to rip the magazine away from Callie, but Callie holds on strong and pulls it towards her. While all this is happening, the poor magazine is getting ripped to shreds.

So Callie gets on the phone with the police, and drunk girl runs out of the store. It's funny how they are too drunk to understand anything, yet when you mention the cops they bolt out of the store.

I'm glad I wasn't working, because as soon as that bitch tried to grab the magazine out of my hands, I would have punched her in the face.

I guess the drunk girl ended up getting arrested, and Callie is going to press charges. What I'd like to know though, is who the hell is going to pay for the magazine??

  1. Let the company write it off as a business expense. You know, the expense of having to do businss with drunks. Callie no doubt needed it in hand to keep herself from slugging drunk girl, or possibly to use it as a weapon to defend herself.

  2. I'm with ya! Did Callie get reprimanded??? If she had let go - maybe the drunk chick would have walked out with it and there would have been a shoplifting charge too!

    Hehe!

  3. I used to be a desk clerk at a hotel. This drunk dude came in and he was really irritating me. I finally said are you going to rent a room or not? He said no and I said well then get out! And he did, lol. I guess I just need to be more direct like that all the time ;)
