Working in retail has its ups and downs.

Most days are fun-filled, making customers happy, and bonding with your fellow co-workers. But, if you have ever worked in retail, you know that these 10 types of customers that walk into your store every day definitely gets on your nerves. It is nothing else but relatable.

1. The one who asks “How much will this be after taking X% off?”

Hold on and let me go grab my phone to use my calculator in the time it would've have taken you to just do it yourself.

2. The one who destroys a perfectly folded pile that took you an hour to do.

Crying on the inside.

3. The one who refuses your help, so they knock over everything in their path to get to the one shirt you could've grabbed for them if they just asked. 

Really. I hope you feel accomplished now.

4. The one who thinks your store is an open trash can, so you find cups and used food bags on the shelves. 

JUST ASK US TO THROW IT AWAY FOR YOU.

5. The one who never believes that there isn't a line at the other registers so they just stand in line thirty minutes longer than they have to. 

Poor life choice dude.

6. The one who tries to pull one on you and get the online discount when really they are the exact same as in the store. 

Sorry, no you can't get 80% off.

7. The one who cuts you off when you are trying to ask them a question at the register. "Would you like to sign u-" "No, I'm good thanks."

You didn't even let me finish but ok.

8. The one who makes a huge scene because we forgot to take a sensor off. 

We make mistakes, man. Chill out.

9. The one who thinks they can get away with stealing. 

We saw you go in the dressing room with 5 things and come out with none. I'd say you are a suspect.

10. The one who stays 20 minutes after close just to leave with nothing. 

WE'RE TRYING TO LEAVE.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now.

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked.

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
