Yeah. Fingers crossed, knocking on wood, all that stuff lol.


It really was horrible. Lol my manager got scared whenever he saw me, because it was mostly to tell him bad news yesterday.


This has happened a few different times lately. But whoever it is, came back yesterday. Not only did we have the crazy lady, but someone clogged the ladies room and spread toilet paper everywhere from poopy overflow. And we also had books fall on a customer. Yesterday suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked.


I am. Hoping we don't get anymore crazies this week, and that today is a quiet day. No ass holes purposefully destroying bathrooms. No violent 'customers'. Just a simple day.


Because I'm still tired, despite a good sleep.


@Wildfire: I'm hoping today is going to be a much better day.


@Koah: Thank you, I'm very proud of my demon stripper.

Who knows. We've been having so many homeless come in getting aggressive like that at us.


@Koah: It was a pretty awful day honestly. And yeah I'm sure something was wrong with her. I'm concerned that she'll come back.


Okay so early on in the day we have this woman screaming at someone in front of our store. She comes in asking if we had any resources for her since she's homeless and just moved into the area. Because we're Goodwill we have to have something. I can't help her, was going to get Manager. She leaves. Still swearing to no one. Not long after that we hear her at our fire escape door, throwing rocks at the building and having a fight with someone. After that she comes in demanding I give her change for the bus. I was trying to find Manager for a separate reason, and to get permission to break her cash into change. She's impatient and tries to force her way through me and Donation Attendant into the back area. Still demanding I give her change for the bus. She's in my face, as Donation Attendant is forcing her to leave. She tries to throw our paintings onto the floor, pushes Donation Attendant, and the tries to break our register. We finally get her out, as Donation Attendant physically forces her out. She's screaming at me that I did this and that to someone...It was a mess.


Luckily he didn't do anything bad, other than giving my coworker the creeps.


I think he had some kind of thought disorder honestly, because kept asking if I knew the names of the Goodwills. Like apparently one of our stores is named Bob, and he wanted to know if I knew Bob. Like not an employee named Bob, the store. Told my coworker to keep an eye on him, and if they needed to to call the police if he got violent or disruptive.

Unfortunately we've been having trouble with a homeless camp in the parking lot of my store. So we've been having a lot of issues with mentally ill individuals coming in. Especially on extra cold or rainy days.


So yesterday we I was tasked with finishing two gaylords, and I did finish one of them. But my coworker kept coming to get me from the back because a customer needed help. Then they come to get me because they couldn't read some small print a 'customer' was trying to show them. He was trying to have a Game of Thrones novel tell him where he lost his credit card, and was demanding I help him talk with the book.


@Wildfire: No ghosts, it's just a shell right now. Friend and I are planning to put puzzles in there and around it's yard. To let others try and solve. >w<
