Tens and Twenties, Part 3

I wish I had an Ash there to help me out with moments like this. If you ever see a comrade in need of backup, come to their aid.

Shout out to @MusingsInRetail and @mchicaparrales for inspiring the ending to this comic. As fellow retail employees, we are comrades-in-arms and should have each other’s backs as often as we are able. The Shopper is an awful creature at times, and the shopkeeper can have difficulty fighting back against them. Support is always appreciated. Be good to each other, comrades, and we all might survive this retail jungle.

Tens and Twenties, Part 2

If you’re going to accuse someone of stealing, don’t do it and then lie about it. But really, don’t accuse someone of stealing unless you’ve got good evidence first.

This actually happened to me one day. What irritated me most was the fact that he not only thought I had stolen his money, but also that he tried to pass it off as not an accusation. The Shopper, if you will remember, considers itself to be infallible, so the possibility that the money might have been misplaced by the Shopper is absolutely impossible to them, despite being most likely completely accurate to everyone else. When encountering an angered Shopper, puff yourself up, make yourself as large as you can, and stand your ground. Unless you know you are completely in the wrong, stand your ground, and the Shopper will eventually retreat.
