It's been a taxing Monday

(refit JH is doing is a honey-monster)
EM: what's the crack?
JH: she's massive, you know, when there so fat the bras just disappear into their flesh...she always wears non-wired and she asked to be fitted into a wired bra cos she's getting married. Oooh, think of the poor sod marrying that...


(cust to JH who was flapping her arms at the door because she wanted to be let in before we opened)
Cust: it's just not good enough that you open at ten. I have to travel to get here and it's an inconvenience. I need to be seen straight away, I'm in a rush I need to be in London this afternoon.
(it's an hours train ride away and she was done by 10:16)

(same customer as above to JH again)
Cust: See these red marks? I get these because I have arthritis...
(not because your a 40jj then?)


Cust: I'm looking for a halterneck bra, and a nude bra without wires. I find they are so uncomfortable if they have wires, they dig into my ribs after only a few hours.
EM: ok, let me just get your fitter
(in stockroom to JJ)
EM: I've got a fitting for you, she's after a halterneck thing..
JJ: ok, boring...
(later in stockroom)
JJ: she's after a non wired halterneck bra, she's crazy!
EM: yeah, I thought I would leave that bit out for you...
JJ: yeah thanks! She asked me if we had a halterneck bra with the straps like that, on an actual bra, errr, no! And then she asked if we had any non moulded strapless because she didn't want to look any bigger and I had to go through the difference between moulded and padded
EM: so what she wanted was a buses, softcup, halterneck bra
JJ: yeah!
EM: gaffer tape?!
