Christmas Jeer

Holidays, Seattle, USA, Washington | Right | December 20, 2012

(The store I work at is normally open 24/7, but we are closing on Christmas Eve and won’t reopen until the morning of December 26th. As we get ready to close, we are asking the last customers to make sure the door closes firmly behind them so that more people can’t get in.)

Me: “Thanks for coming in today; have a great holiday! If you don’t mind, could you please make sure the door shuts all the way when you leave? We’re actually closed now.”

Customer: “But you guys are open 24 hours right?”

Me: “Normally we are, but we’re closing for the holiday so our employees can spend it with their families.”

Customer: “Well, that’s just stupid!”
