In Retail, It’s That Time Of The Month ALL Month

(I am working at a clothing store that sells very cheap — in quality and price — clothing geared towards young women. It’s a typical evening at the end of the week, bustling with customers in a tiny space. Suddenly, I hear a shout from my coworker.)

Coworker: “Ewwww! I am not touching that!“

(This alarms the rest of the staff, and I see my manager run towards the dressing room where my coworker is, while the others look on in confusion.)

Manager: “Oh, my God! What the h***! Someone get me a plastic bag, now!“

(I see my coworker dash across the store, shaking her head with her face wrinkled in disgust. Seconds later, we see our manager walk out with the plastic bag; in it is a wet, bloody tampon!)

Manager: “So freaking nasty; this is why I hate people sometimes.”
