It's the best toy in the world! ...now in blue!

I'm sure all retail workers have come across these customers: the customers who come in wanting a very particular item but have nothing to go on but a vague description.

Sometimes it's a tale they've heard from a friend or co-worker, sometimes it's just bad memory on their part... but it's always vague... and they are always determined to get it!

"Hello, how may I help you today?"
"I'm looking for something for my wife."
"Okay. What did you have in mind?"
"I don't know..."
"A toy? A game? A book? Some lingerie?..."
"I don't know... *blank stare* Well, she said she wanted a toy..."
"Okay, let's go walk over to the toy wall then! *walks over* What kind of toy was she interested in?"
"She had one before and she really liked it."
"Okay. Do you remember what kind?"
"It was blue."
*thinks: this is going to be a long day....*

The begging of the end...

I work in retail. Exciting eh? But not just any retail... I work in Adult Retail. Interested yet?

I've worked in the industry for about 5 years now - two as a clerk and one as a manager at an adult video store, and two as a manager at an adult boutique.

These are my stories...
