shop law...

How is it that you hardly see a soul all day, you then need to close for five mins to run a delivery over to someone and a customer walks in and proceeds to browse for half an hour? She spent 11 quid on cards so I'll let her off this time. This always happens or they all pile in at half five when you try to close up. Customers eh?!

Ha ha, it's the same with red roses, no bugger wants them when you've got loads, as soon as you get an order for a dozen 2 more come in and you end up turning people away.

Thats a good one! Anyone else think of any.

Another is, your first customer will always pay with a 20 note when you have no change!

When it's been quiet and you're struggling to find something for staff to do then the minute they go the phone starts ringing and customers pile through the door
