Anyways I do my till count n shiz and start my shift with some token sales and a debit purchase...Sofar soo good for the first couple of hours. Granville was super busy last night with all the bar/club patrons, so you had all sorts of people running through and passing by throughout the night which was all good cause it gave me a diversity of people to interact with, definitely some characters for sure. Good thing I brought my sketchbook to capture these moments haha. It got to about 2:10 am and things quieted down at the shop, sweet. I turned up the music playing in the store, and 'Blood On The Leaves' by Kanye West was playing...Just then this 6'4" white dude with like a half finished mullet, no shirt with a blazer on, tattoo on his chest with a gut you can't miss comes waltzing in proclaiming,"This is the jam!! This is it!" Waving his arms in the air to the beat of the music. Pacing back and forth down the aisles proceeding to try to rap some jibberish to the tune. It was horrendous and I watched in amusement as he was saying he had a list of things he needed, and wanting a dildo in particular,"...to beat someone with on the streets cause shit was goin down!" I believe was his exact words haha. So I was like,"Dude how you gonna pay for all this stuff?!" His decibel levels go up a couple notches as he whips out his wallet pulling out 200 in fifties, slaps it on the counter and demands service. Lmao I take the money and direct him over to the dildo section and start making suggestions to which models were durable enough to withstand a beating if used in a certain manner. Recommending a 19" rubber schlong for grip factor and swinging maneuverability, he looked at it and said,"No I was thinking a glass one if anything actually." Ok it's a personal preference, so I showed him some various ones in different colours just then a group of people roll in (3 guys 1 girl), buddy was busy checking out the glass dildo selection so I tended to any questions the group had. The 2 guys were were looking for something to numb the unit so they can last longer, and I had such the product in stock so I talked about it to them and convinced the one to purchase this liquid numbing agent w/ applicator. Meanwhile I'm ringing in the sale with debit and the one girl is bombarding me with questions about a couples sex toy on the market. Then suddenly the group erupts in laughter pointing behind me saying,"Yo what's wrong with this guy!!" Fuck sakes I thought as I turn around and there buddy was opening a package pulling out a glass dildo claiming that this was the one. Holy crap, so I'm thinking I gotta ring these guys in right quick so I can quickly put out this fire before it spreads. Too late cause as soon as I finish the sale the muddafuggin alarm goes off, everyone turns their head towards the peepshow area and there buddy was parading out waving the dildo in one hand and a foam penis shape cheer mitt on the other cheering. Like wtf I wasn't prepared for this that's for sure, just then another group comes in wondering wth was goin on as buddy walks by them onto the street hollering and waving the glass dildo at passer bys. Good grief so I yell,"Yo everybody calm the fuk down I gotta call the other shop to help me diffuse this problem sorry about all this." I make the call and Chelsea from up the block was like,"Yea I can hear the alarm going off, I'll be right over." 3 minutes pass and she's there, we get the crowd outta the store, turn the alarm off and now only have mullet boy with the glass dildo to deal with. At first I thought he was drunk but when he started flailing his arms everywhere I was like this guys is messed on drugs fo sho. I actually ring in the glass dildo which was 94 dollars plus candy with his cash and tell dude that it was time to go. He wouldn't leave so we threatened to call the police and proceeded to get him out the door. Finally after 15 min he leaves...That all happens in a one hour timeframe, effin hectic. Word.
So I'm thinking I never got training for such a possible situation like that but I'm sure as hell glad that happened cause for future reference I would know how to handle that situation a lot better and efficiently if it did happen again. Lmao and I was thinking if those groups of patrons never came in I would've been able to get buddy to spend all 200 dollars on merchandise for real. Time to get ready for part 2 of the sex shop antics tonight, hoping it's a lil quieter tonight...Hopefully lol.
Cheers J
