Went into our nearest town (Worthing) yesterday. I don't often go there as the parking is horrendously expensive and there's few shops that I'm interest in but had to exchange a Tshirt for my husband so bit the bullet and went.
First the Tshirt shop..... husband - had bought two and one was the wrong size. I go to the exchange desk - the assistant was lounged up against the counter (literally leaning across it) I explained what I needed to her. Without a single word she stood up, sucked her teeth audibly, and sauntered off. I'm standing there thinking... has she heard me, is she going off on a break... what???
Back she comes 5 minutes later, shoves the shirt and a bit of till roll at me, grunts 'signature' and stuffs the shirt in a bag. WTF!! During the whole transaction the only word she spoke was 'signature'.
Off to another store to buy summer tops. Go to try them on and the assistant suggests that I leave my handbag with him to look after... Mmmm no, I don't think so. Try tops on decide on buying 5 and give the other one back to said assistant. 'Where's the number disk' he says. I told him he hadn't given me a disk - he actually said 'yes I did' and went into the dressing room to look for it. I was absolutely dumfounded! Why the hell would I steal a disk! Sure, Mr dressing room assistant - I'd love to leave my handbag with you... you can't even remember whether you give a disk out or not!
Feeling rather annoyed I decide to head for home only to find the carpark paypoints are out of order with the guy trying to sort things out. I, along with a massive queue of similarly peed off parkers, waited for 20 minutes to pay!
Needless to say I won't be shopping in Worthing again!
