k-k-kick it
For the past two weeks, I have been helping out at my stepdad’s dry cleaners. There are a lot of interesting and ballin’ people that come in… and then there are those damn clueless 18 to 22 year-olds that stroll in. Sigh. Anyways, in hopes of helping the confused, I’ve complied a list of lessons that I’ve picked up on here at the dry cleaners.
So please stop looking confused every time you’re in here.
1. Try to bring more than just one or two pieces of clothing. It’s not wrong to bring just one shirt, but it’s kind of annoying to do the whole dry cleaning system for one shirt. Besides, you’re treated as a better customer when you bring in more clothes.
2. Unbutton all the buttons on your dress shirt and FREAKING don’t leave your clothes inside out. This drives me INSANEEEEE. AHHHHHHH. Ruining my mojo!
3. Heavy starch on dress shirts or asking for crease on jeans is pretty cowboy of you. Asking for no starch on dress shirts is ‘hip.’ Asking for no crease in tuxes is freaking “holy crap you must be a BALLER” status.
4. Don’t forget to pick up your clothes. I’m actually surprised how many clothes get left here for over a year. Thanks for my new clothes! loljkjk.
5. Dry cleaning takes about 3-4 days. Altering clothes takes about 3-5 days.
6. Please stop your self-conscious self from spraying Febreeze or Axe on your clothes before you bring it in. I’ve accepted the fact you bring in weird smelling clothes. I don’t accept the fact you bring in weird flower field and mango infused sweaty clothes.
7. Don’t be such a dick. I think this goes for all services and life in general. It hurts my feelings. ;(
hahahaha
