Ross Stores

my first month working here I had to tell a 17 year old assistant manager (the one other employee in the store) that someone took a shit in the fitting rooms again and he went in to clean it. I walk away and realize the store music has been replaced with mariachi music, which was both an improvement on the usual playlist and more fitting for the store. it gets louder as I walk to the middle of the store. I turn a corner and 4 or 5 guys shorter than 5 feet tall are performing the music. one of them has a double bass almost twice his height that I have no clue how he got through the door. I watch them finish the song and then turn around and walk back out the store with nothing. I go back to the fitting rooms and see the assistant manager come out and ask why we had a mariachi band playing in the furniture section. he says "what mariachi band." I walk back up to the front of the store and a family of 6 is sitting at the bench next to the shoe section by the front door, 2 on each seat side of the bench and one at each end. it's a mom, dad, adult son, teenage son, child son, and very young child son. they are all vaping. it stinks of weed. I walk by them and the mom stands straight upright, then everyone else. they follow the mom as she spirals the line of them around the bench like ducklings, or a game of snake, and walk straight out the front door with nothing

was in the bathroom here and this senile elderly guy started rattling the stall door, verbally asking if it was locked, then got on his knees and crawled under it and looked straight up right at my dick. exited the bathroom and seemed to seek out a manager while very loudly telling everyone outside "I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WAS LOCKED"

TRUE represents what we as Ross associates stand for and how we behave. It is our cultural standard, and is the foundation for the way we do business. TRUE stands for: T = SafeTy We practice safe behaviors in everything we do.

for some reason this place allows you to bring any pet in the store. lots of senile old women with annoying purse dogs that bark at you whenever you walk by. my "favorite" encounter was a couple who put their chihuahua in a cart and it immediately blasted diarrhea everywhere at the front of the store, so they pushed the cart and trailed dogshit and piss all the way diagonally to the back of the store and then got their cart stuck jammed into the door of the bathroom with the dog still in it

saw an elderly lady with some kind of obvious developmental disability being led around by a caretaker here. she was wearing a shirt that had a clipart margarita on it and said "My tumbler runneth over because this girl's blessed" with a Bible verse under it

the Logan's Roadhouse of retail in that it's designed around people walking in and throwing things on the floor and then leaving

bad for the soul
