I've worked several retail jobs and by far the worst position/ task/assignment is the fitting room. People are crazy rude, weird and entitled. One of my favorite ways to teach these people a lesson was when we had to count them in and out of the rooms. As we welcome them in, we would count the number of items they had and give them a tag with a number on it. Then, they would come back and have to hand me the tag, and their items. The number of times these people would just leave their hangers, or the stuff they didn't want to buy on the floor or the benches of the fitting rooms was ridiculous. I would always very politely send them back and then smiling, like I'm stupid as f***, I would sit down the items that they were going to purchase then dump everything that they had left on the floor on top of it while I rehung and counted to make sure they had the same numbers of items leaving as they did. The sighs of frustration and impatience was so rewarding.
