    LOL this guy from Pilot is a w@nker.

    Totally agree. Actually I don't know how the company is doing so well, haven't been in a store in years but it always seemed cheap and overpriced - throw in that kind of attitude towards the customer and snidey shop assistant and I'm stumped.

    I do feel sorry for the staff due to lack of support and training etc, but come on - they all knew that they should be helping customers and smiling as a minimum.

    There is a reason I don't work in "proper" jobs anymore and it's bosses like that...my days of yelling at that sort of guy are over...but it was fun.

    Not convinced about the Fitting Room experience, I'd feel a prize idiot sashaying down the catwalk in a polyester tube dress towards the computerised mirror, hmm maybe I am too old for this shop!

    That end bit was well funny. Although I'm ashamed to admit I've helped people in shops! It's something I don't realise I'm doing until my DH grabs me apologises and reminds me I don't work there. OOphs!

    Obviously when I'm not doing a MS though.

    Well I hope this leads to an influx of high street fashion chain jobs on the ALERTS thread...

    I face up products at the supermarket as well...just can't help myself. Was contemplating trying to get a Saturday job there doing something like that...just to get it out of my system. :rotfl:
