“You should shop less”

It is pretty annoying to shop somewhere where they are real grumby about you being there. It’s the Slavic customer service special. Fuck me for wanting to visit your store, Mrs. Babushka.

If someone just has a neutral face, no issues from me. It’s normal where I live. But some people are visibly annoyed from having to act with a customer lol.

I always deadpan people who say that, make my index/middle fingers to form a V shape, then force the corners of my mouth up.

You want a smile? Go find someone who’s happy. You want service? Don’t tell me what to do and I’m willing to try and help.

It usually got a chuckle, but sometimes the person would get uncomfortable and leave like they think I’m about to stab them or something.

Or I tell them my grandmother died.

Hey now we can both be uncomfortable and wishing you hadn’t said anything!
