LOL thank you. My dad was *shocked* that Borders is open on Easter Sunday, and that I have to work. It's a corporation; they'd rather stay open and have the chance of getting a few customers, rather than close and lose money. Our neighborhood that we're located in is also predominantly Jewish, but since Passover's also underway, it's going to be fairly empty tomorrow, as most of our customer base will be with family or on vacation. Unless Brangelina shows up again...
People find the tiniest things to whine about in our store. We ran out of that stupid Liberty and Tyranny book, and a customer accused my manager of doing it on purpose as part of a "vast liberal conspiracy." Someone's been watching too much Sean Hannity. Then there was the woman who wrote a letter in to corporate because she found the display of Passover books in the kids' section way too small and said we should be ashamed (I went and looked later; it was a pretty decent display. Never mind that the woman in charge of the kids' section is Jewish too). And last summer, we were under very strict orders to NOT discuss the election with anyone and if we got provoked, to tell a manager. This was because there was a TON of people complaining because the first table you saw when you walk in the store was all Obama books and we had customers bitching at the manager that we were showing a Liberal bias and, once again, that we're part of a vast liberal conspiracy. The first table was displaying the top-sellers from Borders.com; so if it was all Obama books, too bad. That's what we had to explain to them heh.
