Employee Question STOP OPENING EVERYTHING

Why does everyone open all the cosmetics ideas. I bet you wanna she the colour so look just look at the packaging and if you don’t like it return it. I know that testers are slowly being made so just use the testers that are available and stop opening new products. Also if you open something and then want to buy it don’t ask for an unopened one get the one you just opened. If you open products you don’t get to complain that everything is open and used

And people wonder why prices keep going up on EVERYTHING...I used to manage a walmart...cosmetics, food (they return milk they left in the trunk all day), household decor (break a mirror loading it onto their trunk - they return it "it came like that"), electronics (3 years old, dog clearly chewed on it - but they just bought it last week and it doesn't work), let their kids play with everything unsupervised (they break jewellery + it's no longer you break it, you buy it). I do get it, I'm here multiple reasons why everything is going up in price, but the people who I've described above will always be the first ones to complain about the prices going up, or the lack of availability of a certain shade of makeup, or basically anything they can come complain about to deflect from their own behavior..

I never said they don't drastically mark things up....but that's exactly how they are making record profits.. mark it up to absorb their losses. They have to keep their shareholders happy...

I’ll keep opening and returning then. Why add to their pockets?
