retail manager

This is the person that comes around making sure you are bothered every five minutes and told one more time what you are to do (in case you have a case of chronic amnesia). This is usually to reassure the person that the items and services you are selling and most likely not making commision off of are steadily helping out their bonuses each week / month / year.

Retail Workout

When a person who works in retail uses their job as an opportunity to workout by speed walking, lifting numerous heavy objects unnecessarily, or often times a combination of both. Sometimes they may go as far as wearing wrist or ankle weights to enhance their regimen. The majority of time they come across as a tweaking suckass by displaying an annoying amount of energy and eagerness to do things that normal people wouldn't want to do in the process making co-workers look bad or lazy.
