Today, my boss bitched me out on the sales floor for a good 10 minutes, because I wasn't "smiling the right way" for our customers. FML

Your boss needs to take a chill pill. No worries, keep smiling! Good luck to you :)

Just smile really creepily and say, "May I take your hat, sir?"

No, you're showing too much gum! Now it's not enough! Your teeth are the wrong shade of white! Pull the corners of your mouth up another fourth of a centimeter! Does that look like a fourth of a centimeter to you?! God Dammit you're worthless! And are you wearing light pink lip gloss with glitter?! You know it's mandatory to wear medium pink lip gloss with a mild shimmer! The customers will never respect you if your lips are the wrong shade of pink! SMILE RIGHT OR YOU'RE FIRED!!

Now you got nothing to smile about.

i feel ya OP, if it's any consolation; bosses aren't supposed to make any sense.

#28, yes, bosses are supposed to make sense. If your boss makes no sense, it's probably time to ask questions or look for a different job. With a smile, of course...

That's stupid as hell. But hey, look on the bright side, at least you still have a job!(:

Was your smile upside down? I don't think there is a wrong way to smile...

Sorry OP. I know how you feel. I once got a lecture when I worked in retail about how I was not smiling enough and was told my job was on the line if my smiles did not equal the amount of hours I worked per shift. Smiling all day is near impossible unless you are a crazed clown. I hope you find a better job soon. One that doesn't out unrealistic expectations on their staff. If you do happen to quit make sure you tell her to F*** Off. Good luck
