How I haven't been sacked, ill never know
Generally, in Retail (In a Fashion Sports Chain), the overall enviroment of work is very relaxed. The only people who I've known been sacked have been for stealing stock and from the till.

Personally, I've sworn at customers, hung-up on area managers, dealing with customers I've told them "We ain't doing this refund or exange, you may as well fuck off", telling little kids they can get those crappy livestrong bands in United Colours of Benetton and they have loads of other colours too as well as various other things

I did walk out of the previous store with a nice, loud "I will not work in this shit-hole again" before a massive wheelspin out of the car park. All this came after running the entire footwear department alone for around a year (without complaints) and complaining another member of staff was a bully. His hours suddenly rose to 40 hours a week, mine were cut to 8. We both had 24 previously)

Had a phone call next day from the Area Manager asking if I wanted to work in another store for the previous manager (Who was safe as fuck might I add)?
The manager of that day was sacked recently for running another store into the groud

Took that straight away. Still there to this day in a part-time role . By the way, Richard Govier, your a pervert. Owen Tebb, brush your fucking teeth
