Kharma

I work in a department store -a big one with nice, expensive things where we work on commission.  When someone wants to buy an nice, expensive thing (or things), they enlist a sales associate (me) to help and we help as much as we can, not because we have an innate desire to want to help but because we want your MONEY and ALOT of it.  So when you are in the middle of helping a customer and another sales associate comes along, swoops in, and steals a potentially large sale, it makes the sale associate (me) very angry. 

This happened tonight.  I know, I know this happens frequently and it is annoying, frustrating, and malicious but COME ON! If you must steal the sale, do it behind my back and not infront of me and don't make it akward. Normally I would have intervened and rescued my sale like an abandoned pup on a drifting raft…ha, but this was not just a pup it was an nasty grizzly bear who could eat me for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and still be hungry.  Remember, we are co-workers regardless of what department or floor we work on and I get to see your beautiful, theiving-ass self almost everyday. 

I don't steal sales, I don't believe in it. Kharma is a bitch and in retail it is a mean, unforgiving, monster of a bitch. 

I do love my job though and for the most part, my coworkers are wonderful people.

That is all for tonight. 

Goodnight
