WE AIN'T GUNNA IF YOU WANT A DISCOUNT ON EVERY SINGLE ****ING ITEM YOU TWAT.
This isn't a f*cking yard sale. It's a store. The only reason we put up with it is because we're still trying to build a customer base so their 10% off is better than nothing. The logic kills me though. "I love this store. I hope it stays forever. Please give me everything cheaper than how you price it which is already dirt f*cking cheap."
F*cking scumtwats.

Should have asked for three-fiddy

i reguarly deal with the same goddamn customers here who just want to feel like theyre winning the deal
if the part goes for $400 i go in at $450 so when they fire back at $410 im like “oh man... i guess, just cause you’re a good customer.”
but yeah it does suck. people wanting something for nothing.

People do that? I mean, I used to watch The Apprentice and they'd always be like, "Oh it's ninety quid? We'll give you seventy." And I'd be, **** man, you try that in a real store they're gonna run your ass out of there. They don't need your cheapskate business. They're trying to make money here. But it really does happen?

Ah I get where he's coming from. Sometimes it's good just to let loose, even if it will achieve nothing in the end.
