I wonder how many people actually pay for those questions, and how many bitch about the charge, and how many ask anyway...and if they actually charge them.

I figure the reason for that price list involves a rather large sign on map in the immediate area. Complete with glowing lights.

Bored at the Bookstore

Oh, I've ALWAYS wanted to do something like this! There are sixteen shops in our plaza: guess where all the lost souls come for directions? The barber? The deli? The beauty shop? The pizza joint? Of course not! The book store!!! People who work in a book store know everything, right?

And they're flabbergasted when they ask, "Where's Idunno Lane?" and I respond, "Darned if I know - I only work in this town."

I do however, know the directions to Rte. 95, Rte. 1, the soccer fields, the high school, and the Post Office/police station/firehouse/town hall!

I usually look up the destination online for them, though, if they're nice about it. But I could add significantly to our net profit if I charged a little $ for directions!

(Incidentally - we used to sell maps; but we gave that up because no one would buy one.)

  • Greetings Curious Scroller,

    If you've never landed in this part of cyber space before, you have taken a hard, fast plunge into the fiery depths of work hell. RHU is dedicated to giving the service worker a voice. If you are an angry customer, a corporate suite, a homophobic race-hater, and you don't like skull masks or swear words, this blog isn't for you. Click away now, before your ears bleed and your eyes explode.

    I'm Freddy, Crypt Keeper of Retail Hell Underground RHU -- a place for service slaves to have a voice, tell their story, support each other, or just have a chuckle about the insanity of working in the 10th Circle of Hell! I'm also the author of "Retail Hell," the funny memoir about life as a handbag sales associate at an upscale department store! The sequel, "Return To The Big Fancy," has just been released in hardcover and e-reader and is available wherever books are sold!
