It’s been an interesting week so far with the crazy snow while working in the Metrocentre; it has shown me that there are some crazy people out there. When the most people woke up this morning they would have seen the TV news, listened to the radio or read in the newspapers “Do not travel unless absolutely necessary”.
Don’t get me wrong I have a business to run and for me to hit my targets I need people to hit the shopping centre and buy stuff. The number of people that had turned up to ask “how do I get in touch with customer services” and “how do I check the balance on my phone” if not exactly what I would call “necessary”. The prize of the day however goes to a guy that traveled 25 miles from Hexham to the Metrocentre to buy a screen protector for his mobile phone before heading back to the car park to drive home.
Certainly not “absolutely necessary”!
