Nearly half of US frontline retail employees and two-thirds of frontline managers say they are thinking about leaving their jobs in the next few months.

If you're wondering why the numbers are so high, you've probably never worked in the industry. And if you're nodding in approval, saying "Good for them," you're definitely a seasoned vet.

Probably nothing illustrates why these folks are so disillusioned better than the subreddit 'Retail Hell.' This place unites 93,000 members, who go there to vent about their entitled customers, toxic bosses, work conditions, and every other problem that they face on a regular basis.

So we at Bored Panda once again decided to feature some of the sub's most popular recent posts and give these tired voices the stage that they deserve.

The reason why these memes are so popular on the internet is quite simple. According to McKinsey & Company, around 20 percent of US employees—or approximately 31 million people—work in the retail and hospitality sector.

That is roughly 9 million more employees than in each of the two next-largest industries (the public sector and professional and business services).

But this sector faces a much more serious retention challenge than any other.

The quit rate in US retail and hospitality is outpacing the overall US quit rate by more than 70 percent.

Frontline retail employees are recognizing that they have more employment options—and more tools to access them—than ever before.

I used to work in a coffee shop with an older lady who didn't take c**p from anyone. One time, a customer came angrily marching back to the bar and said, "Excuse me!? This ISN'T what I ordered!" She looked at the name clearly written on the cup and asked, "Are you Michael?" He huffed, "No!" She exploded, "Then why you take Michael drink!? Jeremy, you deal with him, he crazy!" I loved her so much.

Murder is little bit too far, but pepper spray would work. One pepper spray per year. If you don't use it somehow, you can transfer it to the next year, up to five years in a row. You can pepper spray customer on behalf of another employee.

Despite that, retail sales in the US, which are adjusted for seasonal swings but not inflation, rose 0.6% in August, the Commerce Department reported Thursday. That’s a slightly faster pace than July’s revised 0.5% gain and marks the fifth straight month of growth. It’s also way higher of economists’ expectation of a 0.2% increase.

I have to laugh. So many times I hear "Please put your items in the bagging area" when, in fact, the poor customers have done exactly that. They take them off, same message, they put them back on, same message. So they stand, confused, taking them off and putting them back on. Same message. Finally they stand there defeated, confused and demoralised until a member of staff releases them from their robotic nightmare.

"August retail sales picked up steam as consumers kept spending, though categories like furniture and home furnishings saw a drop," Bob Phibbs, aka The Retail Doctor, told Bored Panda in an email.

"No matter how much we're being told a recession is 'just around the corner,' people still want to go out, meet [others], and discover what is new."

The signs are better than nothing but what's really needed is management to have to guts to kick out misbehaving customers. They might lose a customer but it means loads to workers who are constantly abused. They might also find that happier workers are more productive workers.

I've worked in retail for over 20 years. I'm now a self employed contractor and today I was replacing a display unit behind a newsagents counter. The young lass handling the customers was awesome. Cheerful, polite, smiling, she was enjoying herself. I made sure to tell the manager I thought she was awesome before i left. It took maybe 10 seconds, if that. I hope he told her my feedback too. It makes a huge difference for someone to be recognised as doing their job well.

This is a good point. You might need no (or few) qualifications to start in retail or service, years of experience definitely makes a person a skilled worker (in Germany there are qualifications for retail workers and servers that take years to get). They should be paid as such!

So over one comment (which was probably exaggerated anyway) the customer goes onto the dark web, finds out deeply personal information which might actually explain why the worker had a bad day and displays it in public. With a message to *him* to choose kindness. What the actual f**k.

I was told "we're really swamped, everyone is voluntarily working through their break". Me: "Yeah, I'm not volunteering. I'll try to take my break when its less busy but that's the best I will do."

You're supposed to close for me. Today and every other day because I won't be there at all anymore

Working as maintenance for a company regularly pulling 15 hour shifts, I was involved in a car accident dropping my wife off at her job in the morning. This is before mobile phones. My wife got a cab to work while I waited for the police etc. She called my work to tell them I'd been in an accident. By then I was about an hour late, she told my manager about the accident and heard my manager tell the owner “Carlos is late because his been in a car accident”, and my wife heard him reply, I hope it's serious enough form him to be this late!!

In case anybody is confused: The image is mirrored. "IDK" = "I don't know" "IDC" = "I don't care"

Any time a business describes itself as a "family", that doesn't mean they care about ypu- rather, they're trying to con their employees into showing them the same level of altruism one would normally associate with "family" while they treat the employees as a resource to exploit.

I told my manager it was 4:30 and I just finished smoking and I don't drive high. She sent someone to pick me up

Do you really have to use the basically useless pen to check a bill that says COPY?
