Retail can really suck. I think everyone should have to do it so they have some empathy. Food service also.

@mariep4512 3 дня назад

I completely agree! I say this all the time.

@AllySa33 3 дня назад

Yes! I can immediately tell when someone has never been a server by the way they treat them or how stingy they are with a tip. People can be so rude.

@mermilani4525 2 дня назад

I agree 💯

@ladyesther 2 дня назад

Yes, I agree.

@catjalapeno 2 дня назад

And when their order is “wrong” (even tho they ASKED FOR THAT SPECIFIC thing) and feel the need to hurl slurs about your competency…it’s soul crushing.

@ashabelisle4770 3 дня назад

you're STUNNING. You're KIND. It's hard to accept that when you're someone who isn't happy with themselves. Don't let ANYONE dull your shine.

@germainesprock9348 2 дня назад

You are honest and an excellent professional: also likeable person!!

@robindebruhl7547 3 дня назад

Risa, as someone who worked retail for 30 years, I can honestly say it takes all kinds. I remember my father used to tell me that "you can't make everyone happy, but you can sure piss them all off at once". Let what people say roll off you like water down a duck's back. When you let them upset you you're giving them your power. Don't let anyone take your power away (or change who you are). You're perfect exactly as you are.

@nataliemarshall7158 2 дня назад

Having worked in retail myself I can say that your father’s words are 100% true!! Your advice is correct but sometimes it is hard to put it into practice but I think remembering what your father said will make it so much easier to remember to put into practice

@bethdriskill7538 3 дня назад

Retail is so hard. People visit in ALL sorts of moods.

@maireadweaver8952 3 дня назад

Risa, one of the reasons I watch your tutorials/content is because you are always your authentic self .. beautiful inside and out!! You are also out-there representing us women who are over 50 and you do so with style, panache and honesty .. and I adore that about you .. your advice is always honest and thorough ... I think you are amazing .. keep being you xxxx

@wanda7214 2 дня назад

Hi Risa. Unfortunately when working with the public, there is always someone trying to steal your joy. I was a Medical Clinician for 40 years and was called the B word. My comeback, with a big smile, I said “Thank you, you know that means I’m Beautiful, Intelligent, Thoughtful, Courageous and Honest.” The expression on that persons face and their loss of words was PRICELESS. So don’t take it to heart, in this life one “gets what they give”. Love your videos and have learned much from you. 🌹

@lesliedemarco1691 2 дня назад

Risa, OMY gosh, been there!! I worked for Sephora when I was 21 and you wouldn't BELIEVE the stories I have. Not only of rude customers but of the cattiness between the girls who worked there. The manager would play favorites and they were BRUTAL!

@debbiemccann3711 3 дня назад

Hi Risa I've been a hairdresser for 47 years and yes I can relate with you.Mostly sweet and funny stories but some negative that stayed with me for a long time.Thank you for sharing.

@alicjaskwarek4230 3 дня назад

I work in customer services. most people are great but sometimes you get someone absolutely horrible. they can scar you for life.

@catjalapeno 2 дня назад

I’ll never forget when I was a front store supervisor and yes I was (am but working on it) over weight. Twice I was asked when I was due. The first time I burst into tears, the 2nd time I replied “no ma’am I’m just fat!” That hurt.

@jourdanb91 3 дня назад

I love hearing your stories. I worked for Nordstrom for 20 years and was brought to tears a few times but will never overshadow all of the wonderful people I've met

@corriebelle 3 дня назад

Risa, I adore you so much for being so so real. I love hearing your stories!!

@RisaDoesMakeup 3 дня назад

Thank you!

@djtomlinson3797 2 дня назад

Both incidents happened when you were so young. In 20's or 30's, I would have cried, too!! Now in the 6th decade, would be a whole different story. No tears, just pray for them (after the shock wears off) and move on. One of the few benefits of aging is being more sure of yourself, and gaining wisdom (with confidence). You know who you are! We love you, Risa. ❤

@mbraden8949 3 дня назад

I love hearing your stories. I do agree - - everyone should work with the public because it isn't easy. Just one ugly customer can ruin your whole day. Also, I think everyone should be a waitress/waiter once in their life because it makes you have a better appreciation of the challenges. Helps make you a better customer.

@AllySa33 2 дня назад

When I was a server in college, my worst customers were an elderly couple who were late for their movie at the dollar theatre next door. They ordered water with their entrees and stiffed me completely after yelling that the food was late and they were going to miss the opening credits. The server has nothing to do with the speed of the kitchen! Nor are they responsible for the quality of the food. I made less than $20 that night because everyone tipped $1 on their $8.95 two-for-one pasta special with free breadsticks and water. I definitely cried when I got home... and never went back. And my friends hate going out with me because of how much I overtip lol. But they have never been servers!

@mbraden8949 День назад

@@AllySa33, So sad. I remember waitressing as a 2nd job and it was at a fancy sandwich/sundae shop. A church group of 12 came in and I worked my butt off for them. I did everything but wipe their chins off and they left me a 35cent tip. And to add insult to that, it was my dentist paying the bill.

@mims2582 3 дня назад

I choose my friends based on how they treat strangers That’s very telling And wow! You met a lot of cool people in your work

@lindab5789 3 дня назад

When I was young, I worked in a chain steakhouse. I was mistreated and harassed by people of all stripes. Sometimes, people are just having a bad day or are going through some kind of issue. But in general, I think these types of people are perpetually unhappy and tend to take it out on others. Please try let these memories go because it is definitely not YOU - it is them!

@RisaDoesMakeup 3 дня назад

Thankfully I rarely, if ever, talk about them so they don’t hurt me the way they used to. I have a feeling things are even worse for retail workers now.

@lisabecker7962 3 дня назад

The public can be brutal. I work in retail and wow do I have stories!! The most recent one was probably the most hurtful to me and I’ve been in retail over 20 years and I thought I had a thick skin but this woman thought I was being rude to her just cuz I asked her to choose her type of receipt on the pinpad. She said “ is that how you talk to customers? So I simply said “ I was just asking you to choose your receipt” well she took that as being rude and mind you she was already being rude herself by being on her phone so she then says to the person she’s talking to “ this cashier is being so rude to me , she’s probably in a bad mood because she’s making minimum wage. “ I literally lost it !!!! I said “ ok that was so not necessary!!!! Thankfully my next customer in line heard the entire conversation and said “ wow what was her problem?!?! “ it felt good to hear that because clearly that rude woman apparently is miserable and took it out on me. That incident really shook me but I had some very nice customers saying you handled that very well and we appreciate you ! don’t let her ruin your day!

@joannperna1143 2 дня назад

I can tell you are the kind of person that would bend over backwards to help someone. You are a sweetheart! Thank you for sharing your stories.

@carolpoch9289 2 дня назад

GREAT video! I love that you met #42 on your first day on the job! I met him and shook his hand, and Hillary's at a State fair! Hillary was stunning! Both got my votes!

@amyhadley6021 3 дня назад

I worked retail for 10 years. I have seen and dealt with so many crazy people. It's mind-boggling how people think they can be so rude and disrespectful to people who are helping them.

@phyllistallent4149 2 дня назад

I had a coworker who was truly wonderful with clients. However, he was a nasty beast to contractors he hired to work on his home or to retail employees. We’d hear him on his cell phone berating his house cleaner, yard guy, or the restaurant manager where he just had lunch. This happened several times a week. Overhearing these conversations was stressful for us. He really had some kind of psychological issue that caused him to harass people he knew would have to listen to him due to the nature of their work.

@amyhadley6021 2 дня назад

@phyllistallent4149 wow., that is horrible

@dianepieper2023 2 дня назад

I agree. She was jealous. Her husband probably looked at you too long, and she wanted to tear you down in front of him. I understand how years later you reflect on memories and still feel the pain. We just have to let that run off your back. You're beautiful. Strutt.❤❤❤❤❤

@nancyfong3535 3 дня назад

You’ve gotta love working with the general public!! After I paid my “dues” on the retail floor, I finally applied for and went to the buying office. Best job!

@paulahardin6002 3 дня назад

Those ladies that you are talking about had issues, probably still do have them. I would have loved the opportunity for you to help me with makeup. You are very kind and are beautiful on the inside and out. Your look today… Chef’s Kiss! 💋 Happy 4th!! 🎇

@mims2582 3 дня назад

Well said Me too!!

@virginiav.1172 2 дня назад

Thanks for the stories, Risa. I was a nurse for 35 years and could tell you some wild stories! So yes, working with the public means every day can be a surprise.

@sandilang3845 2 дня назад

Oh Risa, I worked for LaPrarie for years and I could tell you stories and experiences I had with customers that would shock you. I worked in cosmetics for years and learned a lot of life lessons that I will remember for the rest of my life. The only difference between us is that it turned me off to ever worked for cosmetics again and would never go back. I’ve watched you for a long time and find you to be the most beautiful, kind, non aggressive influencer that would never push products, you don’t have a mean bone in your body. You are also so talented and artistic person in the business. I adore and admire you! Your outstanding beauty is intimidating to people and that’s probably why they react with insecurity.

@byCorrindaandSimone 2 дня назад

I worked in the beauty/cosmetic industry for 25 years, also as a make up artist and I totally relate to your experiences. So much emotions from clients they just dump or project on you as the service person. It got so bad in my last years of service that I got into a burm out and quit my job to never return! Never EVER will I return in that industry. I still love make up, I still do the whole sjabang on my face every day. It just make some happy!🥰 In my burnout I started painting and creating other things. As long as I can work with colour and shapes and such, I am happy to be just the wife of a loving husband and be there for my friends. Thank you for showing light to the darker side of retail. 🙏🙏❤❤

@morganmckibbon4241 3 дня назад

I think some people are just hell bent on being miserable and mean AND they want everyone else to be miserable with them.

@sussannekeith5676 2 дня назад

You hit the nail on the head there…. misery loves and needs company. I will never buy in with them.😮

@phoenixgirl11 3 дня назад

@RisaDoesMakeup 3 дня назад

I believe you 100%!! Working retail is not for the weak! Especially cosmetics.

@robindebruhl7547 3 дня назад

I completely understand. I was once accused of being a racist because the retailer I worked for's section of products for African-Americans was only 4 foot by 7 foot big. Was that okay? Heck no!! But this one particular lady spent her entire time in the store implying my racism and trying to pull me into an argument. I smiled, agreed with her sentiment on how tiny the section is, and told her to have a wonderful day.

@carolcohan3603 3 дня назад

Hearing your stories made me smile… I’m in Farmington Hills, MI and Jacobsons was my most favorite store in downtown Birmingham, so beloved and missed. I was a new young interior designer @ Englanders back in the 80’s, working retail furniture. The staff would get giddy from exhaustion when we had sales, and a couple of us would accidentally ask, “Can you be helped?”, lol. Your descriptions of what happened with these two customers made me feel you could be a girlfriend sitting with me over coffee. Please DO tell more stories! We love hearing about your life.

@wendycarpenter9165 2 дня назад

I had worked in retail. I had a woman get very angry with me because she wasn’t happy with me for her fifty percent off top. She kept insisting her $35 dollar item was $10. I had the manager come to answer her questions. While checking out in a huff she informed me that she had a college education. I told her that I was sure she did not have a degree in mathematics!

@bobbiekay4310 2 дня назад

Risa, your willingness and vulnerability to share your stories is so validating for so many of us. I applaud you! It seems these experiences really impacted and stuck with you. I hope that talking about it on this platform is helpful in validating your feelings and healing. 😘

@kellyross4801 3 дня назад

I've been working retail and customer service for years. Decades. And many people are decent. Some people are in a bad mood and share it. And some people need to be (more) medicated. 😂 Now I work in a state food stamp and Medicaid office. I'm the first face people see when you walk in the door. And to many people, I'm the face of "government" when they're frustrated about their benefits. 🙄 I've developed lots of techniques for coping and deflection, and I've done my share of crying in the back room. I also have a collection of cards, notes, letters, (and a couple of houseplants) from people who appreciated my help. I try to focus on them. Risa, you're the real deal, honest, sweet, genuine, and level. If someone doesn't like it, they can go elsewhere to have the day they deserve! 😂😘💐

@annacabble4111 3 дня назад

Risa, I worked in the cosmetic industry for over 35 years, I know how you felt. I've had the same kind of things happen to me. What's really crazy is I am married to a black man, so I would just show them a pic of my husband. Most of the time they would walk away. These people are hoping if they complain they will be giving something free

@bronwynbehan5942 2 дня назад

@ladyesther 2 дня назад

Hi Risa! I loved this video! Ugh, I use to work retail and I am also a sensitive person and not naturally outgoing! I cried 2 times after being yelled at by two different bosses. I quit one of those jobs right after the manager yelled at me and another girl. I was 4 months pregnant at the time. I'm sorry to hear about those two negative experiences you had! How terrible. But meeting a President on your first day! Wow. What a great story. :)

@cheryllaws4908 2 дня назад

I’m so sorry that happened to you. It is frustrating when someone misconstrues your actions based on their own insecurities. I agree that everyone should have to work on retail in order to appreciate how difficult it is. There might be a whole lot less nasty customers. I did my stint at Talbots/ made great friends, gained experience and a great work wardrobe to boot! But also had my share of very uncomfortable interactions! Keep being you! ❤

@sussannekeith5676 2 дня назад

There are so many petty people just waiting to pounce… you know who you are and we know you to be nothing but kind, generous and authentic. We love you!❤

@tonyasuttie3296 3 дня назад

Loved what the woman said about the customer’s husband! Love these kinds of videos. People are nuts! I worked in a sporting goods store in high school and a grocery store in college. They were both very eye opening experiences. I’m 55. Don’t think I could do it today. I’ve lost my filter!

@LotusLady9 3 дня назад

Risa I can't imagine you ever purposely offending anyone. There is no way I could work with the public even if bad events happen infrequently. My skin is too thin for it; I admit it. There is no excuse for abuse. You are one of my all time favs and love you and your videos! Have a great 4th!

@cinderelli3192 2 дня назад

That was so entertaining Risa, thank you for sharing and you are an amazing classy lady ! Yes, I think I can speak for all your viewers that we would love to hear more of your amazing stories !

@svetlanabaidak526 3 дня назад

I love your personal life stories. When I was in University, I worked every kind of job to pay for school. Most of it was retail. I can’t even count how many insane stories I have. And I know I was a good worker, I was a good person. I’ve never been fired, I have glowing references from every employer I had in my life (I am 44 years old now so that’s saying a lot). People are just people. You never know where someone is coming from. I’ve learned it may be nothing to do with me, they are coming after a bad day/week/year or have something going on. Often you are the one they may lash out at yet not knowing you. I used to analyze and feel bad for every interaction that wasn’t perfect. Even 99% was not good enough. But now I learned I can’t do that. It can get to you. You are a great person. That shows through every video you make.

@susanmorris-smith5509 2 дня назад

Working with the public is so hard. I agree with you, everyone should work behind a counter so they can see what you go through dealing with the public. I know what it’s like also, I sold fragrances and cosmetics you meet all kinds.

@reikiwithcary2682 2 дня назад

Johnny Ross! I too was called the B work because I had the audacity to ask a 79 year old lady for her ID so she could receive a senior discount - when I tell you she had not one single line on her face, invisible pores... wore no make up with the exception of mascara and lipstick and was BEAUTIFUL! I honestly did not think she was even the required 62 years old.... she filleted me in front of my employees and customers for asking for her ID... and refused to accept my apology... ah well... the fun of working with the public! I cannot imagine you Risa EVER being snarky or witchy with an B to anyone! Perhaps you were just too real of a reminder that she was on the back slope and you were just finding your way to the top... young beauty in a nice person ... a reminder of who she herself was! ( or , was not!) Happy fourth! 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

@KarenAllen-pp3yl 2 дня назад

Risa I think you are so awesome. I can’t imagine you being being mean to anyone. I personally been mistreated also, but you know I was told by my momma that people who treat other people horribly do it because they have to feel good about themselves because they are miserable themselves.

Hi Risa I have worked with the public most of my life. I was a Registered Nurse for around twenty years and you wouldn’t believe how many times I have been sworn at, called names and even attempted attacks on a couple of occasions (mostly working in the emergency department). It is often not the patient that is doing this, but instead it’s the relatives or friends of the patient. High emotion plus either alcohol or other substances can make people truly awful or even violent. Trust me when they are horrible normally they’re even worse when they’re in the hospital. Obviously I also met so many people who were fabulous and they far outnumbered the awful thankfully. Best wishes x

@margaretfederal5099 2 дня назад

Truth! Stunning look today, Risa. You are a talent and a lovely soul.

@Alice-fr1ef 2 дня назад

I've worked with the public during my whole working life and survived Thank God. I am retired now but I can believe every story you have told in this video Risa. Working with the public can be an education in life. I always felt that the public would not define who I was and would let them keep their foul mouths to themselves. I heard things I had never heard before and was told to do things I never thought I would ever be told. I also found out how nice people could be too. I am glad you survived too Risa. I enjoy your videos very much.🥰❤💖💗🧡💙💚❣🌹🥀🌺🌼💐

Lol Risa! I loved this GRWM story telling video! I had my fair share of retail experiences (worked in retail for about 3-4 years in my early 20s) and I know... one sees all kinds and meets ppl of all sorts. I believe you, and I have many stories of my own too. It was a good experience for me overall and I think you're right that everyone should work in retail at least for a little while, just to get that experience. It does help one build a strong backbone! 😂 Your look is beautiful and I think the brown mascara suits your lovely blue eyes! Thank you for sharing your stories with us 😍

I feel your pain. Your experiences are always interesting. Never worry about that. ❤ I love following you.

I LOVED Jacobsons! We lived in Toledo for several years and I was heartbroken when they closed. I worked semi-retail ( it would take too long to explain) and while the VAST majority of clients were wonderful and fun, there was always those 2 or 3 that did their best to not be nice and seemed to enjoy being miserable.

Thank you for sharing some of your "little" life stories, Risa. You're absolutelly right, human comunication is sometines complicated and full of missunderstanding, and it hurts sometimes... Working in a services is something that everybody should try, it's kind of school of life. Thank you once again, I love your content here on you tube ❤ And today I really like a lot your lip combo, beside other things 😍🖐️

You are so brave to come forth and those other people should be ashamed to be mean for no reason

I've worked retail for 8 months after years of office jobs and my skin has gotten so thick fast. Some people are just miserable and won't be happy no matter what. I just laugh about the rude/crazy customers and try to appreciate the good ones.

HI Risa. I opened a Macys in Sonoma County Ca in 1981. I was working for Estee Lauder. I agree with everything you said. Most people were great, because Iwas very authentic and had their best interest at heart. If my line wasn't appropriate for them, I would walk them to another line. Some people however were just nasty. I was very young and didnt have the maturity to understand sometimes people take out their problems on the sales associate. I particularly loved seeing how much people felt more confident when I educated them about what worked best for them. I enjoy your tutorials and education on products I haven't tried yet. I enjoy your channel and all your videos. I'm a working cosmetologist of 40 years. I find it relaxing to watch other artists looks and I'm always open to new things. I think your lovely. Dont let anyone steal your joy. Barbara Windsor Ca.
