"I've already fulfilled my fake laugh quota for today" is sooooo me :')
This is painfully accurate, working in retail will be the death of me

Beauty Spectrum but remember we all do it for the cash! just fake a smile and think of the money
I work in retail. If someone asks if there's anything in the back and they don't believe you, just run in the back stare at the wall looking at your watch and come back replying " no"

I did that a lot. XD Sometimes I would just be like, "No, but I could double check!" And go back just to take some calming breaths and brace myself for human contact.

If I had a $$$ for every time a customer made me look out back for something I knew for a FACT we did not have... I could retire! & then they say something snarky, like 'you didn't spend much time looking!'. I KNOW! Because it WASN'T there!

One time according to my little scanny thing we actually DID have one in the back, and it had the exact location too. I ran back there and...it wasn't there. At least the customer was understanding and nice about it...sigh.

Customers asking you for things when you're already doing something for another customer is the most annoying thing it's my biggest pet peeve

"Do you have the other shoe?!" I'm creasing 😂😂😭
and also "you don't have a loyalty card? well I could put one through for you, you can get 5 points back for every pound you spend and okay you're just going to interrupt me, that's cool too"
This is so accurate, especially the "just give it to me". Another thing, I work in a shoe department, and I don't think people realize how much less time it takes to just put the shoe in the box when you're done trying it on. Even if it's not neat and you don't put it away right, a ton of time is spent trying to figure out what show goes into which box
I've worked retail 4 years and this is dead on. Also there's the customer that hands you their trash and wants you to dispose of it for them, the one that doesn't want to wait too long in line, the one that wants you to be their personal shopper....I can go on and on.
Isn't scanning must be free LMAO. I literally heard that joke so much I'm DONE . NEXT TIME IM NOT LAUGHING.

Just reply with: "Actually, that means that it's double." Be sure to smile as if it's a counter joke and it'll put and end to their comedy routines. It helps.

Once I just didn't react and the lady freaked out on me saying I need to take jokes, that if I didnt like my job I should quit. Like for fucksake, I just did nothing.
omg this is actually incredible.... being someone who works in retail i actually could not agree more
so true, seems retail sucks internationally

Outstanding portrayal! The only thing missing is the curse words that you say in your head when dealing with these people! Great video!
3 years ago and the accuracy speaks volumes...astronomical 😂😂😂
came here for a relatable video and was triggered by a mitosis poster
I didn't even now that you can leave the clothes in the dressing room and the employee will put it back intill I went shopping with my friend and I'm still like why not do it urself ur not gonna die from it its a waste of time for the worker
I've worked in retail. God this is accurate. Lol
The folding thing is so true, lol.
Try overnights. They are a whole new side to retail. A strange marijuana / alcohol induced rage fueled bag of weirdness the like of which you cannot fully understand without being there.

Mahadonation1 I had a lady 10 minutes after we closed asking for the price of shoes and I said "I'm not sure, but we actually closed 10 minutes ago, we open again tomorrow morning" and she said "yeah, but what's the price of the shoes??" So I lied to her and told her we shut down the registers in the store already 😂
it's funny because it's true 😂 great video jack!

Jack love your video's especially this one, keep up the amazing work.
Loved it. Can't wait to see more.
This was adorable to watch Jack is such a ray of sunshine lol :)
I work in retail on a furniture and lighting, leisure and toys department and all this is very accurate. We should have a national say what we want to customers day. Just one day in every year.
with you all the way, have worked in retail for 9 years, you missed the bane of my life though, sitting at a checkout waiting for the next customer to then be asked "are you open" and the opposite of that, close sign up but they still come to you expecting you to serve them
You are HILARIOUS and ADORABLE! Why am I just discovering your channel now? Instant sub.
Where is the lie? Haha 🙌🏼
This is hilarious!! Haha . Subbed!

I love working retail! This made me smile
SO ACCURATE!! Especially with M&S!! 😩
Hahahaa omg Jack love this!! 😂
Love this! So true😂👍
Why do I relate to this so much 😂
Love working in retail actually but the negatives represented in your video are so real. I've been in a few occupations and this is a accurate representation. I do honestly love retail management and the creative aspects of the job for sure!
Loved it! That one percent ,they are truly special, psychopath will have to remember that one during my work day
I worked at T.J Maxx for two years, and this video is SO ACCURATE.
I had this lady tell me she left her ex boyfriend because he had become a black wizard and was practicing black magic... I was trying to keep a straight face making all the right comments "oh REALLY? that sounds horrible! I REALLY hope he doesn't come after you with that black magic!" after she left I could barley make it to the back room before laughing hysterically....
Omg so relatable
Perfect video. Retail sucks sometimes!
OMG I could not agree more !
I totally agree! Great video! The people who just won't leave the store once it's closed are the worst! Although my retail experience is WAY better than working in the food Industry.
I manually scan every customer. Your hair, your clothes, everything about your outlook tells me how nice or awful i can expect you to be. It's 95% accurate ;)
oh god i felt the "one moment i'm helping some one" and the person keeps talking.
Hilarious and oh so accurate! :) It's sad when customers can be so rude. You forgot the customers that demand discounts even though you can't do it, and the customers that hit on employees 😂
I work at a department store and I can totally relate to people messing up hours of folding in just 30 seconds. I once spent almost a whole day folding and sorting men's jeans and the next day, they were all messed up again. Every time I'm asked to do this, I think to myself "Why bother?".
so accurate, a year in retail/pharmacy today and this is what happens way too often. got a price tag thrown at my face today because i couldn't give them a discount hahahaha love retail
This is like Domix 'ReTales' it's brilliant!
Brilliant 😂
get out of the store - yep same in hospitality- except its go home haha 😂😂
This is soooo true
2:00 was literally me all day every day of my two months of retail experience
but its 8:57 GET OUT! GEETT OUT!!

So much truth.
I've worked in retail for 9 years and this is beyond accurate. Just add something about making sure to take the sensors off and the inability to read signs and it's perfect.
Omg so true. I worked in retail for years...
Quite Accurate Man lol. Customer Service is a Pain In The Ass Majority of the time haha
Ooh I'm so using that "part of the script" line
I've been working in the retail industry for 6 years already. Been with every shit u mentioned in here
Just subbed😌
This is too real
“Hi, how are y-“ “I’m gonna pay on debit” I HAVENT EVEN RUNG IN YOUR PRODUCTS YET. CALM YOURSELF.
hahahahah!!! loved it

Yep, dealt with that at Kmart daily. Sometimes the underwear or sock was missing. I assumed stolen, but occasionally you would find a stray pair in the weirdest places...
totally true. Every single one of them
So accurate , the fake laugh quota for today was spot on just only so many times you can do that before your face cracks and falls off
This was great😂 What store do you work in?
fetus jack
So relateable, i've been working in retail for 2 years now, its a love hate kinda relationship xD
When I was a cashier I used to pretend to do something else when I saw a costumer who looked grumpy or had a overflowing cart lol
"Hi, I'm a human being. Oh, sorry, I just though you hadn't noticed." hahahaha
I fangirled over the DNA replication note on the wall.
This is how is how I feel at work
“Excuse me, where are the pens” “They’re right in front of you Janet, Open your eyes” 😅😂
WHY HE BE LOOKING SO FINE IN THAT SUIT OML I CRY
Can you do a variation of this for food service?
So accurate . I used to work for macys 😩 lol
Man some of the things you side are things I wish I could have said when I did work in retail. I worked for Target for 9 years and in that time I can say most of what you have dealt with that you think are dark are more likely on the light side for me. It can get really bad the longer you work for the same place in retail. But sounds like you are doing okay so far.
Yes.
I been working in retail for going on 6 years, experience all of these as a trolly pusher
Was fun, lol
Disclaimer: I work in Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal and wear a very orange pumpkin like sack. A guest asks “Do you work here?”. . . “YES I FREAKING WORK HERE I DONT LOOK LIKE A DRIED UP PUMPKIN FOR FUN IDIOT”
Lol. Dark times? How bout 10 years. I'm in the dark web then😈 I work grocery retail.

I feel your pain. I worked grocery retail for 5 years at the register and service desk. Instead of going to "the back" to check on items I would tell customers it is coming in on the truck tonight. Truck only came two times a week tho.
Customer: Can you check if you have any of these in the back? Me: [knowing there is nothing in there] Yeah I'll go check for you
nice white shirt where you bought it?
Once I was in the middle of folding clothes on a small fixture (hoodies, and hoodies don't refold nicely) and some witch came over, ignored my personal space, and started pulling out sweaters, checking the sizes, balling them up, setting them on top or shoving them in the back, etc. and then her friend or sister or whatever came and started doing the same thing on the other side of me and I just threw my hands up in the air and stormed off.
I would go to your manager and tell them you are a fantastic human being
"We close at 7:00 it's 6:58 get out" haha
😂 omg so accurate
