Rule - Lemmy.World

Alt text: a text post that reads: Work in retail long enough, and you’ll eventually realize the rules for dealing with Customers are exactly the same as dealing with the Fae: - Avoid eye contact. - Never reveal your full name. - Accept nothing They offer you. - Never verbally agree or disagree with anything They might happen to say. - To apologize is to acknowledge a debt owed. - Under no circumstances are you ever to thank Them. - Remember that They are incapable of reading signs in human languages.

  • Time flows strangely around them: You’ll get trapped in a conversation for 30 minutes, but when you look at the clock only 5 minutes have passed.
    You could swear they only arrived 2 minutes ago, but they have been “waiting for an hour!”

  • Do not shake their hand lest they trap you in their embrace. (From experience)
