8.Percy Should Feel Happy about This

Former Toys R Us employee. A woman was frantically going through every rack of Thomas The Tank Engine toys, pulling things out, putting them on the ground and repeating on her search. I offered assistance, and immediately she asked for "Percy, I need Percy!". I usually worked in R' Zone that was video games and electronics so if it wasn't Thomas I had no clue. She explained he was green and after helping her look and checking out online it appeared we didn't have it. She looked at me and said "I cant go home without this" and began to break down and cry. I stood there awkwardly for about a minute, said "Let me know if you need anything else" and slowly walked away.

9.Two Unwelcomed Guests

Last year during the PEAK OF BLACK FRIDAY someone brought their two dogs into the store. And let these dogs shit all over the place, and then the lady who had brought the dogs and every other person shopping tracked dog shit through out the entirety of the store (I work at a small box store forever 21). My manger and I had to crawl around and scrap what we could up off the floors with box cutters, disinfectant spray, and paper towels DURING THE PEAK OF BLACK FRIDAY. It's been a year and I still can't figure out why you'd bring your dogs Black Friday shopping.
