Rules

In a world of Furniture Sales, people became a prey and workers became predators. All of this brings a singular animal kingdom inside the building with non-written rules and non-official guidelines that drives the business in a unique and childish way where stupid became serious and serious became stupid.

Many people wait for special events like ‘Memorial day’ to get advantage of the special sales and deals on retail businesses. When it’s about furniture the Hispanics are first in line to get the deals. If you don’t speak the language you lose the sale.

It’s no lie that our workplace is our second home… we hang out for so long with the same people that we ended up accepting betrayal and dishonesty as we do with our relatives… this one is for all of you that hate each other but can’t live without them either!

Every year companies want to start fresh and execute new ideas based on the experience and the results of the past year. Some people are afraid of change and others are ready to embrace them. In the retail business, changes bring fear and desperation, a formula that is perfect for chaos.

In retail business there are some people that are used to do stuff the wrong way for so long that when corporate starts an initiative to re-organize the department some of them think the wrong things are the right things and the right things are the wrong things. Some of them even bring lawyers to the table. Seriously.

When you are going to be judge by your boss understand that it doesn’t matter you worked overtime to get to perfection they will find whatever to point out your mistakes. That’s why they're there… Believe me, you would never going to heard that a boss visit a store and congratulate you for your hard work. Retail sucks. Everyone is under stress and all of them are waiting to be fired.

Selling is super easy. Selling following all the rules of the store is a nightmare! It’s like corporate want you to scare the customers! Our challenge is overwhelming the heck out of you with a bunch of nonsense until you buy all or run away to never come back. It’s hard, you want to be honest but being honest doesn’t pay the bills

In retail business everyone is after the other, trying to be on top they will eat you alive if they think you’re doing better… it doesn’t matter if you’re doing what you supposed to they will hunt you down until you start feeling you’re walking on shells. Sometimes they get the wrong impression of you and you get labeled for life. Fair? You don’t know nothing yet.
