COIN Comic For June 21-27 "Don't Touch"
Well this week, it's fathers day so I bumped the oneshot "Question" to next week, and made a two page special called "Don't Touch".
Since Dos has a son (before the other 5 kids) this features Xeuk, who just gives him a lot of trouble. It's funny how blunt/unsurprised Dos is when his son disappears, even if Xeuk favors his mother more then his father.

COIN Comic For June 7-13 "Turn"
Ah, the power of the circle. At work we spin our writs around to tell a cashier to turn their sign to close to go to break/do put backs/ projects ect.
W can't say "shut down" or else a customer may think we're talking to them to tell them to shut up. How they can mix Down with Up, is something I'll never know.
Well I took it a bit too far when a supervisor told me to turn my sign with that signal, in response I just spun around in a circle for no reason... yeah she thought I was crazy afterwards, but this oneshot has gotten more laughs then the last one XD

COIN Comic For June 1-6 "Recovery"
Well after getting my comic approved from my boss she allowed me to post it on the newsboard in where we post updates and stuff. It's already gotten a few laughs from people in the workplace.
It's called "Recovery" and usually we clean up the store after customers leave behind a large mess. Sometimes when we see our bosses (and sometimes visitors from another store) look around the store to check the places where we would need to work on, and especially since the new store Harmond is coming in, the recovery with the store is now becoming more productive then last week.
We see here Winterfresh (Minty eyes, who's from another This N That store) and Naranja (orange eyes) looking around the toys and wrap section of the store, but when they get to bedding it's a mess. Naranja tries to ignore this and moves on.

Why Cashiers Ask For Zip Codes
Cashier: “Hello, may I have your Zip code please?”
Customer:” NO!”
It’s an all too common answer for several cashiers around the world, who simply have to ask this question. They usually get the “no” answer from a disgruntled customer who just wants to pay for their things and leave.
I’m one of those cashiers who works at a store, and have to ask this question.
The reason we ask for zip codes is because of one or all of these reasons.
1.) We want to know where our customers are coming from.
2.) If a high population of people come from a certain area, we may want to have a store built there.
3.) We’d know where to advertise, and it has nothing with filling your mailboxes with ads and spam mail.
Even in this low economy, a new store would jump start unemployment who want to work for their families, even if that includes retail.
Especially with a retail chain located only up north, which is an example like a retail chain like Christmas Tree Shops. They get hundreds of customers everyday from different areas around the world, and recently a high population from Canada and even states from Florida and Ohio. They often ask why we don’t have a shop up/down there and they happily will give you their zip codes, in hope that one day they’ll have a CTS over their area that they can shop in, and not have to travel past states to come.
As for the ones that don’t hand out their zip codes, it’s really okay if you don’t want to give your zip codes to cashiers, but really it is better if attitudes were dropped about being asked for them.
You don’t need to yell “no” or say “I don’t have one” or other ridiculous excuses. Just say “I’d prefer not to give out my zip code” or “no thank you” in a nice and calm way. We’ll just enter in five 0’s and continue on (*varies in other stores), but it’s that attitude with the yelling “no” that will cause someone to have a bad day.
I think I’m standing up for all cashiers that have to ask this questions, and have been treated rudely for an innocent question. Seriously, it’s okay if you don’t want to share your zip code, just drop the attitude. Please.
