Not Very Closed-Minded, Part 34
(I have gotten a new job with a store that is opening at the mall. We have just finished setting everything up and are gathered around the cash wrap for a store meeting with our district manager. The mall made us take the paper off our windows, so you can see into the store.)
District Manager: “Okay, guys, great job getting everything set so quickly! Before we go, though, I have to—”
Customer: *opens our closed door, walks in, and starts shopping*
Coworker: “Uh, ma’am?”
Customer: “Oh, my. You aren’t open yet, are you?”
District Manager: “No, that would be tomorrow. We’ll be open all day.”
Customer: “Oh, okay.” *slowly leaves*
Me: “Who sees a bunch of employees standing behind two obviously closed doors and thinks it’s a good idea to walk in?”
District Manager: “Who knows?”
(We had two more people try to walk in after that.)
