Sometimes theyd be there till 2 hours after. Assholes it depends fully on the context and situation. Customer needs something quick, knows what they need, comes in, gets it and is out by closing? No issue at all. There are a lot of customers who come in 5 mins before closing to browse and don't leave when the store closes because they expect to just stay open for them. Corporate will tell managers to let the customer shop in the name of "customer service"...Those people are still assholes. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 1 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Vipa is being 100% fair and on point that the context and outcome of the interaction matters.

Man emergencies do happen. I don't think anyone who comes in 5-10 minutes before closing is inherently an asshole. However, if they linger past closing or mess with anything that needs to be fixed, that's when it enters asshole category.

On Christmas Eve i had to stop by a grocery store late. they closed early that night and i got there about 10 mins before they were set to close. as i walked in an employee standing at the entrance was telling everyone they closed in 10 mins. i legitimately felt bad but i ran in, grabbed the item i needed and paid before they closed the doors or stopped letting people in....
shit happens sometimes and late runs are necessary. its all about what the customers expectations are. i saw others walk in at the same time as me with carts taking their sweet time shopping around...those people are jerks. get what you need and get out. they want to close. they want to go home. don't expect them to stay open just because you TECHNICALLY got in before they officially closed. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 1 ...

I think we need to take a look at what hours of operation are, since some of the comments in here are downright ridiculous.
Hours of operation are quite literally the ownership/management of the store saying that people are welcome to come in during that time period. Even if a customer finishes their purchase and leaves at 9:59:59, as long as the store is still open the customer is well within their rights because management is saying they're still willing to take customers. Sure, some employees don't get paid for work after 10 and still need to clean, etc., but that's on management, not the customer. Employees should file complaints with their Department of Labor in that case since it's illegal. On the other hand, customers staying after closing hours can fuck right off. Coming in at 9:55? Better know what the fuck you're getting and do it fast because you're not staying past 10. KStateKing17 posted... It depends on what the business is imo. If it's a restaurant, then definitely get there at least a half hour before closing or about 15 minutes if it's fast food . A store or gas station is fair game as long as you're in and out before closing time. Exactly this, though some restaurants will simply stop letting people in a certain amount of time before close but still pay the employees to work while customers finish their meals. --- I...I shall consume.

The problem isn't people coming in before closing. The problem is people who want to lolligag around the store AFTER closing.
That's why people cant stand late night customers. Nobody has a problem with people who are in and out. It's the people who want to drag the whole family out to go grocery shopping at 12 am when the stores closing. --- Whoever beats my score I will give them a $10 PSN or Live card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpiorAx40GY ...

The reality is that customers will always expect to be able to walk into a store and shop as long as it's still before their stated closing time. As a business, you must cater to that perception. Anytime a customer shows up at a business before closing time and is turned away, it's a massive negative experience that often times leads to that customer never shopping their during ANY hours ever again. Entitled retail workers give no shits about customer retention, all they care about is getting the fuck out. As you can see demonstrated in this thread, they get triggered quite easily at just the thought of staying over and throw out every excuse in the book to justify such behavior. "My company won't pay me, my company will fire me, people shouldn't be shopping while the store is open." It's all good though, in the future machines won't judge people for doing some last minute shopping. --- Oda break tracker 2017- 9 (4) | THE Ohio State: 11-2 | Oakland Raiders: 6-10 Super Mario Maker Profile: 1237-0000-0073-02FE ...

From my experiences with retail workers they seem to be so angry, like it seems like they basically want to do the minimum at all times.
While I never worked at retail before, I did work for a company that helps with the inventory of multiple retail stores so I have some experience dealing with retail workers and alot of the times they just angry people. Like asking them simple inventory questions like "Can I get the SKU number for this item?" or "Do you know how much this item cost? I can't find the price tag anywhere on the item." tends to piss them off and them them groan and moan. Like dealing with that shit all the time seems so toxic. It doesn't shock me that when it comes to this subject that they get all pissy. _ The funny thing is that from my experience, they basically spend like 65% of the time during their working hours just socializing with their co-workers, while spending 35% of the time actually working. Like if something happens that brings that percentages closer to 50/50 then they lose their shit. ... Copied to Clipboard!

From my experiences with retail workers they seem to be so angry, like it seems like they basically want to do the minimum at all times. Lol some of the hardest work I've ever had to do was in retail, and I was in the military and worked in the oil field. It's a lot of product information, too much for what you're getting paid. People expect you to know where and what every single product in the store is. As well as price, sale price, sku, competitors price, which brand is better, etc. Not only that, but everyone basically treats each other like shit. Customers are usually dicks to employees/managers. Supervisors/Managers usually treat workers like dogs. Plus there can be a ton of manual labor with very little breaks. I just worked for a company who gave no breaks, and only 30 minute lunches (and only if you worked 8 hours, which they routinely scheduled people 7 1/2 hours) Retail is awful, so yeah fuck people who extended my time in that hellhole --- Whoever beats my score I will give them a $10 PSN or Live card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpiorAx40GY ...
