I was wondering whats the weirdest or most disgusting thing you've found in the shop that a lovely customer has left? Also whats the weirdest customer you have had in, or a weird request by someone?
I work in a clothes shop and a girl who i work with today was telling me that someone the other day found a used sanitary towel in one of the cubicles (rolled up in the wrapper)! She also said that before they once found a used tampon stuck to the wall behind a stool in a cubicle, and a used nappy left in one! i just dont understand why anyone would leave this kind of stuff?! i cant believe the cheek of some people to leave things like that in a changing room cubicle!

Horriblest thing I found was a used condom stuck to an Athena poster - lovely!
As for weirdy customers - too many to mention but highlights include a man who covered himself in pooh and jumped into the public lift. Another 'customer' who asked me if I would lick his stamp (he was fasting) and then went all funny when I did. And another who used to strip off and do press-ups in the middle of the floor (this when I worked in a library).

The disgusting toad who brought me back a half chewed Eccles cake when I worked in a Bakers shop and insisted I had sold it to him under false pretences and that it was really a Banbury cake..he took it out of the paper bag and threw it on the counter and proceeded to harangue me .
The horrible old creep who used to come into Boots every Friday when I worked there in my teens as a Saturday girl and ask for a packet of condoms and then squeeze my hand when he gave me the money....Bleugh !!! Too many leering drunks to mention and disgusting women who used to leave unmentionable items in the ladies loos or puke up the walls when I worked in a pub.
I have worked in shops and other retail establishments all my working life and the general public are very strange indeed...hence I would never be rude or unkind to anyone who works in retail ..they all do a great job.

I work part-time for B&Q and once someone had actually used one of the toilets on the showroom display which was disgusting.
The funniest thing that I have ever seen at my work though has to be when someone purchased a 5 litre tin of dulux coloured emulsion got it home and it was full of spaghetti hoops, some cheeky monkey had obviously brought it back for a refund and it had been put back on the shelf assuming it was un used that amused me so much.

I used to manage a bookies many years ago. One day a customer said there had been an accident in the mens loo, I went in and someone had pooed all over it, I'm not joking but it went about 4 foot up the walls (like a spray)!
The cleaner resigned!!
And I still wonder how the person managed to do it!
Apologies to people about to eat.

I used to work in a Warners Brothers Store (you know, Bugs Bunny, Sylvester the Cat, Tweety Pie etc etc). We once had one very posh speaking lady in who picked up a pack of pens which had all the looney tunes characters on and the word 'Looney Tunes' emblazoned across the top of the pack. She looked at it and then said 'what are these looney tunes supposed to do - do they play a tune or something? We decided she was obviously missing something in her lifetime education if she'd never seen a cartoon.
We are constantly amazed by the places that people leave their used olive stones (I work in a posh food shop in Cheshire where we have bowls of olives for tasting) The best was when some digusting person left one in a tasting bowl of smoked nuts and someone ate it! The better the area you work the dirty habits are much worse I'm sure because they think they have someone to clear up after them!
I work in woolies....
...so far this year I have found ...
a half eaten sausage roll shoved into a shoe
chewing gum spat into a tall glass vase, mugs, and stuck onto shelves
countless half eaten chip cartons shoved all over the shelves...congealed curry sauce optional
melted icecream cones/tubs and ice lollys in saucepans, on shelves etc
a huge green streak of snot on a pair of socks...(use your sleeve for f**ks sakes)
a used condom in the ladies tights section (v v v worrying)
a purse with �400 in it (she gave us a �2.99 box of roses to share between 27 staff...still it was better than bugga all)
a signed blank cheque (tempted, oh so tempted)
...oh yes , joy of joy for me when I open up on Sundays, waiting for me at the front door a half eaten kebab and a pile of vomit...nice
****************************************************************
..strange customers...well theres the man who wears a silver bike helmet all the time (but doesn't own a bike) who comes in and asks for random stuff...like coat hangers for children, or "thorn in my side " ( by the eurythmics circa 1980s) on single !!!....
...the 80 year old who browses until he sees a member of staff bending over...then he pinches our bottoms.....
...the man who likes to come in to tidy the cds and dvds at closing time...we like him...infact we might ask him to the staff xmas party this year...
mind you I think the staff are stranger than the customers...

This wasn't in a place I worked but my friend and I used to go to The Royal Spa in Leamington for a coffee. There were a mother and daughter that went regularly for lunch and they absolutely reeked of BO. They used to cover the toilet seats with loo paper before using them but left it all there for the next person to clear off. Disgusting

I've worked in TkMaxx for nearly three years (handed in my notice on monday) and the worst thing ever was when a lad threw up near the doors (on the inside of the store), none of the staff saw him do it but I saw him and his parents walking further into the store and his mum turned to him (he was probably about 10, so not really young) and said "Oh my god I can't believe you just did that" then turned round to look at the sick! I couldn't believe she didn't offer to clean it up!!
Have also found peoples old shoes in our shoe department many a time, presumably replaced with some of our shoes!
Little girls knickers (worn)
Two european health insurance cards (still not been claimed)
and as for weird customers...
1. lady whos mascara is so thick it looks like she has feathers for eyelashes
2. man who asks if he can bring back his saucepan if he realises its not big enough, after hes used it (no you can't!!) then proceeds to moan about Blair and Brown
3. lady who seemed lovely...bought in some biscuits when we found her glasses and then it was discovered she was being fraudulent when she did returns
4. man who didn't believe we could have sold out of his (very common) size in some jeans he saw two days ago ("Well you had about five pairs a couple of days ago!")

Gawd, I am having serious laughter pains at these responses. A good friend of mine works in a public library and she's told me of these *bookmarks* found in returned books:-
a lettuce leaf (well past its sell by date!)
a slice of (cooked) bacon
an unused condom (unwrapped though !)
a comb (apparently rather grubby and complete with free hairs)
a used (and hence sticky) lollipop stick
numerous tissues - some slightly used .....

these have certainly kept me laughing!! Used to work in a famous high street jewellers, and often had dodgy customers, the manager was (and still is) the biggest odd ball of all, he'd allow snot to drip onto the counter like rain drops or a river instead of wiping his nose, we once had an old lady and a dog in, when the manager was moaning (to the dog) the dog wee'd in the store, the manager confronted the women who denied her dog would ever do it!!!
Didn't have too many things left behind, but I was naughty once (forgive me for I have sinned) someone left a video (Convoy) behind and it was from the library, instead of taking it back for him.... I kept it and gave it to my brother who's a trucker for Xmas!! (I was a student!) oh the joys!!
