who can usually hold her own I look 10 years younger from the front and literally like a small teenager from the back the day after the snow apocalypse ended here in West Texas we went to Walmart a place we generally avoid because it is the closest store to us and tubby had the day off for my doctor's appointment we made sure to go in the middle of the day when most people were at work to be clear I was wearing a black hoodie a shirt I made that said mask up and back up and pink capri pants Oh that's cute after we got what we could from the nearly bare grocery section my hubby and I split up oh no guys I'm sure you can work through it just talk to each other I'm joking he went to look at new video games my man and I was headed to the craft section on the way there I stopped to look at some new foot open trash cans oh foot open trash cans I saw my husband about 50 feet away and was trying to get his attention to see if it would work in his workspace he didn't see me so I went back to checking out the different versions I was peripherally aware of some guy talking loudly and then yelling I didn't pay attention because hello I don't work there I also had one earbud in and it was listening to my country Queen's playlist and singing along probably loudly as I was leaning over to check how sturdy the foot pedal was I was violently grabbed and snatched around and came face to maskless face into is away from an older Hispanic man who literally screamed in my face where is it I did not hear the rest of what he said I went into instant Panic response and let out a full-blown horror movie Scream and blindly ran towards where I had seen my husband a few things about me I have PTSD which I generally have under control however the stress of being severely asthmatic and a newly diagnosed blood issue during a pandemic has caused me to have a lot more anxiety and I start to panic when anyone gets too close and especially anyone without a mask I am also a former cheerleader and opera singer what who worked in a bar for 15 years my voice carries my hubby heard me scream apparently I screamed his name and dropped everything and came running I slammed into him and immediately started crying the idiot guy had been following me still yelling at me my hubby calmed me down and and asked what happened I told him when I got to the part about the guy grabbing me

beautiful voice and making sure I was okay the worker found the Disney sticker book I had been looking for for months and gave us a discount on our entire purchase hubby snuck in two other books he

that is just not okay I don't I don't know what else to say I'm glad her husband was there alright this story is called leave me alone lady I don't work here so this happened earlier today and I'm still in shock I love I don't work your stories and figured I'd post this enjoy my first I don't work here story here's the cast there's me an avid Pokemon Enthusiast Store employee Team Rockets Karen the entitled parent Snuggles the Eevee plushie the story so I 33 male and a huge lover of Pokemon had just gotten paid and decided I wanted to buy myself a Valentine's gift I went to my local chain video game store let's call it video game go GameStop ha because they have all kinds of Collectibles having been there several times I had seen a 24 inch Eevee plushie that I really liked perfect Evie is one of my favorite Pokemon and this particular plushie could also be used for cosplay having grabbed my plushie and paid for it and the bag that would have given me a five dollar discount on any Collectibles that would fit inside it I decided to look around for anything I might want to get on my next visit now as it is rather cold here in Tejas hey oh my man I was bundled up in in several layers including a rather warm comfy sweatpants a rather large ski jacket a stocking hat scarf ants had my backpack on with Snuggles the Eevee in her exclusive Corgi eating noodles collectible bag the employees of this particular video game chain store generally wear jeans a t-shirt with the store logo or something similar and a lanyard with a badge showing their name and the company logo on it there is no way I could be possibly confused as an employee enter Team Rocket Karen cue the Team Rocket encounter music Team Rocket Karen wants to battle Snuggles the Eevee I Choose You Team Rocket Karen she had that typical Karen haircut and a look that screamed where's your manager excuse me do you guys have enter game Title Here Team Rocket Karen used confusion it's super effective um what do you hop enter game Title Here God some people are so slow Snuggles the Eevee is confused it hurt itself in confusion Team Rocket Karen uses snap attack I can't snap I want enter a game title here I'm going to buy it for my son Snuggles the Eevee is still confused I don't know maybe Snuggles the Eevee used Shadow Ball it hurt itself in confusion it's at this point I was starting to realize this lady thinks I'm an employee how her tiny Team Rocket brain made that connection is a mystery to me I clearly don't look like an employee Team Rocket Karen used Roar how do you not know are you effing stupid Snuggles the easiest no longer confused whoa lady there's no need for that language this is a family store besides I don't work here I just came to get this plushie Snuggles the Eevee used charm it's not very effective don't lie to me of course you work here you shouldn't be shopping where you're working Team Rocket care and use confusion Snuggles the Eevee is confused I'm now starting to get mad I just wanted to browse the store lady what about me makes you think I work here I look like an effing bomb why don't you go over to the counter and ask the actual employee for your effing game leave me the F alone for those of you wondering the f word is my favorite cuss word curse words are there will be times where I will use it every other word my record is 29 f-bombs in a single rant Snuggles the Eevee used Shadow Ball it's super effective at this point employee who has heard the whole exchange finally finished up whatever he was doing and can finally react comes over Snuggles the EV use substitute what's going on here Team Rocket Karen opened her mouth to start yelling at poor employee I've worked retail for most of my life and have dealt with Karen's and entitled people a lot I wasn't gonna let her spew Beaver sausage This Witch assumed I work here when I tried to tell her I don't she effing lost her crap that's a lie a Spam just came over and pretended to work here he stole my stuffed animal I demand you throw him out and call the cops an employee and I just stared at her in disbelief did she seriously just try that crap ma'am I'm gonna have to ask you to leave you were clearly harassing his customer I heard everything that was said also I literally just sold this plushie to him even has a receipt for it in his hand now please leave before I call the police leave now lady employee used Hyper Beam it's super effective team rocket Karen has fainted while storming out of the store see if I ever shop here again and you can be sure I'll be quiet about the cashback customer service price employee and I looked at each other and burst out laughing at the absurdity of the whole situation sorry about that dude is there something in the store I can offer us compensation nah dude we're good I have a new story for Reddit now employee laughed hooked me up with store credits and promised to look up the story and upvote it I took my Eevee plushie and headed out to get something to eat still trying to wrap my head around the stupidity of some people ah I just love it love it when people double down when they're so so clearly in the wrong it makes me laugh I mean unless it's happening to me then I just get frustrated like this guy probably did but to observe it it's funny alright this story is called I don't work here lady or there or there either long time lurker first time poster after this holiday season though this subreddit keeps getting brought back to mind at least once a month first instance of this I actually do work here I wasn't clocked in though it was a busy day at a well known edgy Mall store in the U.S with an Infamous black wall suspensers our particular store is uh quite cramped I walked in maybe an hour before work with my coat on a drink in one hand and Mall food in the other hoping to kick back and eat my lunch before my shift started I have to pause around every corner as it was a busy day and there's not really any other way to get around people at this store when it fills up I stopped for maybe two seconds in front of a jewelry case and these two girls perk up and say can we get this out of the case I stare at them like a deer in headlights my hands were full and I wasn't even wearing my lanyard yet they just stared back until I responded with hold on let me find an employee like dude two this particular day I had maybe an hour or two of sleep you know those days where you're doing stuff all day you're tired as hell then insomnia decides to kick in yeah I was mad I was tired I had to be at work in a couple of hours when I got to work I decided to take the bookstore entrance to kill some time before my shift walked right in through the door made no stops between the front door and the DND display I picked up the cookbook that just came out and got the tiniest little serotonin boost just as I started to flip through the pages this woman grabs my shoulder and asks as firmly as her grip do you work here I didn't have the energy for this all that came out of me was a solid no she sneered at me like this answer offended her somehow and stomped her way back to the help kiosk as she made her way back the employee on the phone gave me a confused and concerned look lady even if I worked there that gives you no right to grab me bro it or not please do not touch people like that three apparently I'm a barista too I was hanging around a cafe downstairs after work one day waiting for my partner to get off work and ride home together I was standing around the drink pick up just talk talking to the employees I had a shrink in hands coat folded in my arms and in a pink button-up covered in flamingos in top hats and bow ties a girl walks up to me and asks do you have smoothies my partner notices and can't comes to answer girl makes eye contact with me again how much are smoothies my partner answers again she looks at him every time but always returns eye contact with me and asks a very direct question I'm not sure what's going on at this point she goes as far as to try and place an order with me I'm not sure how she still thinks I work there as my partner who's answering her questions is wearing the uniform with the cafe logo stamped on the left side and I'm in a flamingo shirt for I know it's stupid but something in me tugged me towards entering a sweepstakes for winning up to ten thousand dollars for window installations as I was filling out the form the associates asked me if I was a school teacher I looked down at my choice of clothing real quick as I was wearing cargo pants with a sweater with Wizards barge design on it he chuckled and told me that I have the handwriting of a teacher Thank You Fifth and finally this happened last week at a local craft chain store uniform light green aprons with the store logo on the front my outfit of the day sweater vest over a red button-up with black pants and platforms I was in the back looking at the copics with my partner as I hear a woman shout down the aisle excuse me can you direct me to the leather bracelet kits again staring in confusion like maybe if I pause they'll get it not a chance I'm sorry ma'am I don't work here however if you keep walking down these aisles you'll find the kits you're looking for near the jewelry section oh I'm sorry you just look so official I thought you were a manager here I okay I get the sweater vest but the shoes though sorry these stories are all pretty tame aside for the bookstore Karen grabbing me I've just never been assumed to be an employee anywhere before and all of a sudden it's happened at least once a month edit uh can someone tell me why the center of my post is bolded or why am I formatting is all messed up in general attitude
