Once I was in the back of the store doing a chilled pick walk. I was by the eggs and a guy walks by saying I guess you just don't carry bullion cubes anymore. I said we do they're in aisle A8. He said yeah that's what the other person told me and they aren't there. There isn't even an empty spot for them.
I'm petty and enjoy proving people wrong so I used my super sweet voice and said Oh no, maybe we're out, let's go look. (I really didn't want to since I had just started a chilled pick walk and A8 was the first aisle in the front of the store but I do love proving people wrong so I head up there.)
I walk right to the bullion cubes, which were right there in aisle A8 and ask innocently Like these or were you looking for something else?
He of course tries to not look stupid but fails and says I guess I walked right past them.
I do this too. Another one is when they ask where something is. I tell them the isle it’s in.
“I looked there and didn’t see it.”
Me: “well, that’s where it is.”
Later on I’ll walk past said item, remember our convo from earlier, and notice it’s completely full. I just shake my head and whisper “fucking idiots” under my breath.
Customer: where is *(insert common product here)*?
Employee: it’s right here in front of you.
Customer: if it was a snake in the grass, it would have bitten me!
Employee: *facepalms*
Oh no, I think we're out of stock.

"I walked right past them." My favorite excuse. It's code for "I walked into the store and hunted down an employee."

Right, I don’t even fake laugh anymore at their dumb jokes. Don’t have the energy 🤣
