so guys as some of you know, I work in a cell phone store

I sell cell phones. this is essentially the entirety of my job, and how I get paid

so I come in today to find that we have no phones in the store. at all. they are all gone, and we don't get an order until tomorrow.

I don't know what exactly they think I can do, so I am leaving it up to you, SE++

what the fuck should I even do during my shift? I have four hours until closing time so make it good

    This, basically.

    Oh! No!

    Come up with ridiculous explanations for customers as to why you cannot sell them any phones today.

    Like,

    I'm sorry, ma'am, but I can't let you buy a cellphone with shoes like that.

    or

    I'm sorry, sir, but we don't take AmEx. Visa? No, not Visa either, sorry...

    if you can't sell something without actually having it then you're not a very good salesman

    thank for reminding me I will grab some from the dumpster on my way out

    but that does not solve my current dilemma

    I'm sorry, ma'am, but my manager is building a box fort in the store room and I don't have any more available models.

    but see the most I can do is say "well we can have it ordered and give you a call when it comes in"

    no money transaction takes place in that situation

    and more than likely I won't be here when they come in so someone else will get my sweet commission monies

    she's the one who told me! I came in and she was pretty much like "well we don't have any phones left, so you'll just have to make due because the order doesn't come in until tomorrow."

    and then she went home so I am just here alone with no phones
