I work in "Dreams", for those who dont know its a
big bed's store, it can be a bit boring at times but sometimes some really
weird and possibly cool things can happen, take yesterday for example,
this woman came in with her boyfreind, they asked if it was ok to sit on
the beds , of course it was, thats what they are there for after all!.
They both laid back on it and within seconds it was a heap of scrap wood
and ripped material and the couple were in the middle of the mess in
shock. Before she could start screaming at me i dissappeared to the
warehouse for a few minutes to sort out another order and let someone else
deal with the angry couple. As it turns out it was due to the people who
built it without instructions and didnt realise 8 bolts were missing from
the corners which would normally have helped the legs in tight to the bed.
People have done some realy dumb things while testing beds, for example
they let their kids jump on them and the kids end up on the floor. One
woman came in, my guess was she was in her 20's, a student possibly?. She
informed me that she would like a "silent night" double bed for around
£500, no problem i said and showed her to a new one we had only sold one
of since it was new in stock and display that very day. She noticed the
sign "PLEASE DO NOT GET ON BEDS WITH SHOES", she politely obliged slipping
off her heels before sitting and then lying back on the bed, she had nice
feet, she was wearing sheer black tights which gave her legs an extra
sexiness. Her left foot of the tights was badly snagged and ripped as if
she had walked on the concrete outside shoeless. I thought to myself for a
minute as she was talking to me, "it would be too bad if she had to walk
without one of her shoes again and rip the other foot of the tights". As i
carried on taking the details of her credit card and what payment plan she
wished to use i walked around the bed while talking to her and kicked the
shoe under the end of the bed. She didnt notice, neither did anyone else
but as soon as i was finished writing she sat on the end of the bed and
slipped on her right heel and looked around for the other, she pulled up
her foot and decorative iron pattern at the end. she looked under the bed
and she found it, i saw the sigh of relief on her face but then the one of
despair when she lifted her foot from the rail at the end of the bed and
watched a fine nylon thread from her tights rip the whole way from the
snag at the toe all the way up the front and finish at her knee. She
paused, shocked, She called me over and said looking at the long strand of
nylon, WHAT DO YOU INTEND TO DO ABOUT THAT?! she "said" to me. Im sorry
but theres nothing i can do its only your own fault, HOW? she replied,
should i have had to have watched where i was placing my foot? i thought
this was top of the range she carried on but i started to just say "yes im
sorry" or "yes i understand". 10 minutes later she was still sat on the
edge of the bed with one foot in its heel and the other on the bed with a
long strand of nylon leading from it, i had had enough of things by now, i
said to her we would pay £15 for new hosiery providing she still bought
the bed. That calmed her down a bit but i still decided to call a freind
who also worked on the staff, but in the stock control unit in the
warehouse. I asked her not to rip the tights any more while i was gone and
dont move "ill be right back", i went back into the warehouse and called
down Rachel from her office, "come with me a second please rachel theres a
woman causing trouble because her tights got ripped on one of the beds",
"Well thats her own fault then isnt it?" she replied,"thats what i said
but she wont listen", "ok, ill see what i can do" replied rachel, finally
this might fix things, rachel went out onto the shop floor with me and i
took her over to where the woman sitting on the bed was, still looking
angry so i explained to rachel and stood back. Rachel spoke to her briefly
and then came back to me, "she says she wants 10% off and the shop to
replace her hosiery" she said. You keep a spare pair in your office dont
you? i asked. "Yes" she said, but....they are a different colour, well ask
her if she will accept them instead then, i replied to rachel. "Ok" but
you have to give me money to buy myself replacements", "yes yes, ok" i
replied. Off she headed in the now calmed down woman's direction, it wasnt
long before she turned from a frown to a smile. Rachel came back to me and
said that she aggrees to take them as a replacement to her own, i
whispered to her "when you un-snag them from the bed try and rip them a
bit more but make it seem an accident", "ok" she replied and again went
back to the woman, she put her hand around the thread of nylon and yanked
it away from the bed hard but also away from the woman's tights causing a
run to carry on up under past the end of her skirt, "oops" sorry, rachel
said. Dont worry replied the woman as she noticed a snag in rachels own
tights, ill just rip that off quickly,which she did without any trouble.
Rachel led her into the warehouse, up the stairs and into her office with
me following behind, i entered the office with them both and asked the
woman to put on her heels and stand up. She did and i said "well its not
too bad, when your standing up i can only see a tiny run, your heels and
trousers cover the worse damage". "Yes i know but its the fact that they
are now ruined and i cant wear them again" she replied, "im very sorry but
i didnt get your name?", "Kate" she told me, "ok" i said and wrote it on
the invoice. "put your feet up so i can see the bottoms" asked rachel,
kate did and rachel pulled off kate's shoes showing her nylon'ed soles
full of snags and rips, "was all this damage and wear done by the snag on
the bed?" asked rachel, "No, i drive without my heels because it is easier
so quite often my tights will snag on the pedals" said kate, "ok we will
replace the tights this instant, "kate" i said, kate went into her office
and brought out a pair of new, un-worn skin-tone tights. "ok, i accept but
everyone will notice because of my black heels and it will look like i am
bare-foot. Well i have a "tight" schedule to keep and i dont have much
time to waste so if you would kindly slip off your tights, and put the
ones on that rachel has offered you. Ok replied kate, she slid them down
to her ankles revealing 2 very sexy legs and then paused while she kicked
off her heels and removed them completely, she then realised she had not
taken the tights off Rachel but her own were too snagged to put back on,
damn if they have tricked me into losing my tights ill be so mad! she
thought. Rachel and i were waiting outside and kate had no option but to
put her heels on barefoot and come out to get the tights from her. She
then thought to herself, hey this isnt too bad maybe i could stay barefoot
till i get home, she remembered how cold it was and came out to take the
tights off rachel, snatched them from her hand and emerged from the office
a minute later with her legs gripped very tightly by rachel's small
tights. "i didnt think about the size" said kate, but they do the job and
thats what matters she replied. "oh and kate", "yes?" she replied, look at
the heel of your left foot, "no, there was not a run" she hoped, but there
it was the biggest run you could imagine stretching all the way up her
leg. Kate left after purchasing the bed and then Rachel called me into her
office to speak about something. "would you be as kind as to remove my
shoes for me, gently so you dont damage my hose" she said to me, i did so
and then it was revealed that the run had spread across her entire foot,
it wasnt too visible as she was wearing sheer nude tights but she asked if
i would watch the door while she took them off, i walked over to the door
and pretended to watch, but the minute she turned her head and started
taking her tights off i couldnt keep myself from watching, she left them
dangling on just barely covereing her toes and then asked me to pull them
the final way of after she had put her shoes back on. i was cautious in
case it was a trick but once her heels were on she took a-hold of each leg
and wrapped it around my hands, she said then to pull hard away and i did,
they were stuck tight but a firm jerk upwards pulled them off and they
flew through the air towards her face as i let go, "thanks" she replied,
"i should damage my tights more often" she said. It wasnt as good as
watching a pair of nyloned feet walk around the shop floor and the
warehouse but the next day she was back in her usual black, sheer sexy
tights and this time flat shoes. . |
