Pee or poop in the dressing room. Yes. People do it. They think it's funny. It's nasty.

Hiding food in shelves. Found wrappers, cups and half eaten food in shelves.

Pull all the price tags off of clothes on a rack. 

Take everything off of a shelf and put it in the floor. 

Cover the toilet seats with soap.

That's just a few things people thought was funny. 

And people wonder why those working there are crabby.

I would believe that the perpetrators didn't think it was funny. They knew it was nasty. It was a chance to be mean and vicious without getting caught. 

There are LOTS of "practical jokers" who post their antics on You Tube, and I always cheer when one of them gets punched out by their victim.

(Getting them arrested would be even better.)furious

I saw all of those things Lily, you are 100% correct.

The milk jug challenge - young people went to the milk section and picked up a jug and smashed it on the floor. It was all over YouTube.

Young people sitting in the shopping cart (in the basket section where the merchandise goes) and pushing each other around at a run, having a race.


Young women trying on dozens of swim suits at a time with no intent on purchasing any of them "just wasting time until Mom comes to pick us up". The women tried on enough swimwear to fill an entire shopping cart. That's a LOT of swimwear.

Teens using the electric carts and having races. Then claimed they were in medical need of the cart when asked to get off of it.

People who dump their kids off in the video game section or the toy department and assume the store will babysit them. Then, when they can't find junior an hour later, we have to do a Code Adam.

My favorite though, the people who poop in unusual places. I have found poop in the fitting rooms, in front of the yoga pant wall, in the seasonal department, and in all kinds of places in the bathroom except for the toilet -- in the sink, all over the wall of the stalls, on the stall doors, on the floor of the bathroom in front of the stalls, and my personal favorite...on the ceiling.

People who pick up the large bouncy balls (beach ball sized) and play volleyball using the aisles as the net.

The time 2 boys set off firecrackers in the store and their mom laughed.

C had a friend who was out with another and posted on FB how they were so disruptive in a store the police was called.

The girls mom posted about how funny that was.

C was not allowed to go anywhere with this person or her parents for years.

They are both 20 now, and thankfully the friend has grown up a lot.

 I'm not in shock.  Sadly this type of behavior has compelled many malls to restrict access to the under 16YO crowd, my local one requires someone over 18 to be an escort with the young teen. Also our mall has a PD "outlet" in it. What a waste of money.

 Most of the people who did the things in my post were over the age of 18. That's the sad part.

The number one thing people think is acceptable to do in a store is scream and yell at the employees.

If they can't do your return because it's outside the time limit, scream at them.

If you abused and ruined an item and decide to return it, scream at them.

If you open an item like a video game and decide you don't want it and they won't return it, scream at them.

They won't take your expired coupon, scream at them.

They cant find an item from your vague description (the thing in the flier, you know the black thing, do you have any more?) scream at them.

They cant open another cash register, scream at them.

There isn't any of your favorite item on the shelf, scream at them. There are no more of the hot toy of the season, scream at them.

Preferably use tons of profanity, insult the employees intelligence, career choice, and family. Ask them why management would hire such a stupid person. Insult their mother, their kids, and their appearance. Tell them they are worthless pieces of crap and you hope they die. Offer to meet them in the parking lot after store hours and tell them you will have buddies waiting to gang rape them. Let them know you will take down their license plate number and have it looked up so you can terrorize their family, kidnap their children and burn their house down while they sleep. All because they can't do your return because it's not an item currently in the computer system, because you bought it at a resale shop and are trying to return it for cash for drugs.

When I worked on a toll road, I'd get people who thought it was just SO funny to pay in pennies. They would act like they're the best thing ever and have this total derpy grin on their face while handing over their pennies. The disappointment on their face when they realized I didn't give a hoot was delicious!

I had so many people ask me how I slept at night because they didn't like the price. So many eyerolls, so little time! Ditto for the people who got their knickers twisted because I didn't know how they arrived at my booth except that they drove there. I can make an educated guess but seeing as how I wasn't riding with them, I can't know for certain.

My favorite pissy customer was the one who threatened to get me fired because I wouldn't tell her how to get to her destination via Freeway X. Well, Freeway X didn't go anywhere near her destination, which I explained. But fine. I told her how to get to Freeway X and reminded her once more that Freeway X does not go to her destination. I still wonder how far she went on Freeway X before realizing the toll attendant she was so rude to was correct.
