For all those that don't know I have the misfortune of working at Toys "R" Us. Contrary to popular belief working in a toy store is not fun. I'm gonna use this thread as a dump for all my job related rants.

Just thought of my first rant. Screaming children. One day I expect that I will help humanity carry on by reproducing, but seeing some of the kids that come in to my store make me second guess my decision. Today, I was stuck on the sales floor (I usually work or pretend to work in the storeroom) and these two kids are getting dragged by and they are wailing. One of them was crying so hard that he had had to pause and catch his breath to continue his tantrum. I can understand children crying for getting hurt, or shitting on themselves, that's natural. It's the crying for attention and the auditory terrorism in a cunning ploy to bend their parents to their will that annoys the s**t out of me. I'll now make a brief aside. I don't like seeing parents hit their kids in public. And for stupid reasons, too. "Mom I want to look at this toy." WHAP! That angers me. But, if possibly striking your child has some mute button like effect on them by all means fire away. I wasn't wearing my uniform shirt, so I thought about leaning out of the aisle and asking the parental unit if they could please violently shake their child until he or she was rendered unconscious. I didn't of course, since I don't think I'd make a very good panhandler. I did take solace in the fact that while I only had to put up with this little b*****d for a couple of minutes his parents were stuck with them until they move out.

Suddenly glad I work in a jewelry shop. Stupid preteen girls promising their fathers they'll have good grades, clean rooms, and other unlikely things if they only have this particular ring is alot easier to take than screaming children.
Although, the twelve year old boys treating sterling silver like brass knuckles can get old fast.
*child puts on five hundred dollars worth of rings* "And then you hit someone!" *another child puts on five hundred dollars worth of rings* "And then you hit someone!" *another child puts on five hundred dollars worth of rings* "And then you hit someone!" *an adult man puts on the exact same five hundred dollars worth of rings* "And then you hit someone!" scream
