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 been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
