40 Humorous Comics That Retail Workers And Regular People Will Probably Relate To, By Stephen Beals (New Pics)
Interview With ArtistStephen Beals, the artist behind "Adult Children Comics," challenges the misconception that everyday life is dull and uninteresting. With a focus on relatable topics like small talk, work, and leisure, Beals' comics resonate with audiences and provide a humorous take on various situations.
Beals has been creating comics out of pure love for the art form since his college days. He began making comics as a way to unwind after work, and they soon became more popular than his initial "Big Idea." Titled "Adult Children," the comics explore the myth of adulthood and resonate with readers. They have been digitally syndicated and can be found on various newspaper websites.

Exactly!!! Also a few months ago there was a huge line that of standing in at the Dollar Tree. Everybody was talking about how nobody wants to work and I turned around and asked if anybody could afford to work here. They changed their tune
Makes no sense. The blonde one didn't imply she is unemployed or anything.
Right? Just because she doesn't want to work there doesn't mean she doesn't work.

Since they would have run out of unemployment benefits and special extra gov't Covid related payments long ago (IF they actually were able to get them) -- what happened to all those people? Since every business (including industries) in my town has "help wanted" signs out, clamoring for workers, where have all those former workers gone? We can't even keep people in our local post office. If they get hired, they work 1 day and never come back. WTF is going on? Where is everybody?
Covid took about 1 million potential workers out of the workforce permanently so there's that. Plus employers depended greatly on work visas (not to be confused with migrant workers) and students and those numbers are only a fraction of their pre-pandemic numbers. And then, yeah, some people just refuse to work.
Load More Replies...Another places aren't finding employees because covid taught people they don't s**t jobs, I only stay where I'm at because my insurance is the best in the state others wise I'd be out the door, ups pays s**t, and acts like it's a career
Bored Panda reached out to Stephen Beals again to find out more about his recent work. First, we asked about the most rewarding aspects of being a comic artist, and what keeps him motivated to continue creating. The artist told us: “I make comics every day because I love them. They are there to comfort me after a bad day, to tuck me in at night, and to make me a balanced meal. OK, I exaggerate, but not much. Finding others who can relate to what I write is the ultimate motivator. Thank you, random internet stranger! You’ve encouraged me to write another day."
I work at this place that you have to walk up to the window to order. It's kind of like the concept of those ice cream places that you never walk outside your order outside. Well our products are displayed in the window. We open up at 5:00 in the morning. I go in at 4:00 in the morning to set up. Tell me how sometimes people are there at 4:00 in the morning while I'm walking in to work. They also will come before 5:00 when they see that I'm in the middle of setting up my window. No I don't work in an ice cream shop that was just an example. I actually work at a donut shop. I can't stand the rudeness there. Why would you come up while my window is not even set up and ask me for freaking Donuts? So freaking rude
I feel your struggle. Y'know, you could wear earbuds or headphones from the time you open your car door or step onto work property. The more obvious the earbuds/headphones are, the better. Why? Because then you have a legit reason for for not listening, ahem, for not hearing these rude A**holes. Just a thought. 😁

The grocery store opens at 8, but the pharmacy doesn't open til 9
Load More Replies...Had something similar happen at fast food. So i worked drive thru and we have a timer that says how long cars wait at the speaker to the pickup. It was a busy day SUPER long line. so wait times were bit longer than usual. But i was good at keeping tabs on how long it took to take n hand out the orders (10 Min wait at MOST once you hit the speaker [so from speaker to cash put is 15 mins max]) Well one guy decided to try n abuse the wait time before getting to order. He claimed nastily he waited 1hr to get his food. Now i was dutifully monitoring the drive thru screen. N cameras. When he pulled in there was roughly 6 cars ahead of him not counting the one at the window pulling away. Most orders Ahead of him were small fast orders that took 5 mins and one big one that took 10. So i had estimated he only waited 30-35 mins. I told him this and pointed out we had a timer to verify this. His order was simple to so by the time he got to the window it was ready Ppl love to exaggerate
I agree. Retail worker here. I'll be in the backroom backstocking or doing priorities or whatever and they'll call me to help a customer. When I get to him or her she complains he or she was waiting 15 minutes when I know he/she only waited 5 minutes. They always, always exaggerate the time. We're supposed to poof! Drop everything for them and appear instantly.
Load More Replies...At a copy store I worked at customers would try to enter with the opening crew. NO. Some would PUSH electric doors open! NO! NO!
my favorite ? the ones who pounded on the door 10 minutes before opening tme if the saw me... I would sometimes ask if they thought that would make me go through my morning tasks faster, and explain that the distraction would in fact stress me out and make me go slower.... they sometimes seemed confused about that.. showing a complete lack of empathy, or perhaps a belief in magic.
Word to the wise: never a*s/u/me. Check the fine details before you make a fool out of yourself. Store hours posted at the front door.
But that's a sign. Most of them don't read the signs EVER.
Load More Replies...I worked for M & S in the UK, and we were taught to do this as a de-escalation technique.
Yeah, if you're not in the US it's pretty likely that you're taught de-escalation and it's also easier to stay calm, since many places wouldn't allow customers what they're allowing them in the US. In my country it's try to just stay calm and do nothing, but if they overdo it, come to close, get really nasty etc, they'll get thrown out and likely banned. What I witnessed in the US (when visiting extended family) was wild. Not the really extreme stuff like in some videos, just so many times where people were unbelievably rude, entitled and condescending.
Load More Replies...Asked about how his art style has evolved over time and what factors influenced these changes, Stephen answered: “Art evolves the same way a person’s handwriting evolves. Influences happen along the way. Art school. Artists I admire. Different techniques. But like handwriting, you can be in a hurry. I contend that a lot of great art was made by accident when the artist was in a rush. The artist likes that accident and repeats it. The tools have changed drastically. I’ve gone from a pen to a brush to a stylus, and now want to go back to a brush. I miss ink.”

I love how tall the customer appears because we all know you're not allowed to sit down if you work at a grocery store
The only sit down jobs I ever saw were in offices.😉
Load More Replies...It's not so much the human race I have an issue with as it is individual's and certain groups.
Who could have possible foreseen that money would be needed at some point?
Like the people who stand in line at a fast food place, and don't even glance at the menu board until it's their turn to order.
Load More Replies...She also will try 11 cards before finding one with that amount available. And they are not all in the same wallet.
Well, in Germany you have to bag an pack everything yourself so there it's normal that you can't get out your purse while packing your groceries. But if someone bags for you then I don't see why people won't use that tome to get out their money
Every. Single. Day! I'm manager at a BK...we are timed on every order until you drive forward. We get punished by having to do training conference meetings when times are too high. I have 90 seconds to collect and hand you food. Have money ready at window and please don't rearrange your purse/car contents or hand out food to the 6 kids in your backseat who are screaming and aren't belted in before you drive off! Also asking your 10 kids what they want then telling them if they don't answer that they "can fuking starve" isn't cool. We hear every word and so do the customers in the lobby inside.
Reminds me of the morons who go to walmart self check out. The sign says CARDS only. It even has a prompt at the first that says it and to push yes or no to continue. I will be damned if i don't hear either them calling the worker over and saying but i wanna pay with CASH or i didnt know it was cards only. People are annoying and f****n stupid. Yet this planet has the audacity to say we need to keep breeding?
Next, we wanted to know more about the most challenging part of creating a comic. Beals shared with us: “It’s always the writing. I can have an amoeba of an idea and growing it into a creature I like is a hit-and-miss operation. It’s kind of like raising a child in a few hours, except I would love my child no matter what. I do not feel the need to love all of my comics. In fact, I prefer to forget about quite a few. The language is important and hitting the right beats is both fun and challenging. The art would be equally challenging if I spent as much time as I wanted to on staging, but time is always of the essence and the writing comes first.”
I used to have custom closing announcements for my retail store. One of my favorites was "Our larval employees need to return to their cocoons so tomorrow they may emerge as beeea-yooooou-ti-ful butterflies!" ...still didn't get the last-minute slowpokes to move any faster, but at least I amused my fellow suffering co-workers :(

We should totally get a hotel room with my cousin and then I will wait until I can play with my mom and then I usually go to my mom's house and get a new one piece of the multiverse
Load More Replies...Once had a guy come in at closing and window shop the cameras. Manager said we couldn't tell him to leave. We vacuumed, the registers shut down for the night, power was cut to the demo models, manager counted out the money, we dimmed the store lights, and still the guy was looking. Finally, I clocked out and told him, "I'm not allowed to tell you to leave. But there's no reason for you to stay. You can see everything online that you see here. And even if you did decide you wanted to buy something now, we have no way to sell it to you. The registers are shut down, the money is in the safe until we open. We literally cannot do any type of transaction. As I said, I can't tell you to leave, but I will tell you that I am leaving. There are no salespeople in the store, no one can sell you a product or tell you about a product, you can't use the demo models as the power is off for the night. We are CLOSED. Goodnight."
"Excuse me, where can I find your cheese section?" - "By turning your head 90 degree to the left...". Happened literally infront of the damn cheese aisle
"I'll be with you in just a moment I'm just helping this customer" And then you get a big sigh and a dirty look and 4 other people trying to get your attention.
Like the woman is in the middle of helping this gentleman and this lady asks her basically to teach her how to do this whole entire thing. She needs to wait her turn. So freaking rude
It's too bad we can't use stupid people as a natural resource... wait, never mind, already being done in politics...
I dont think It’s helping us though, lol. We need them to be a useful, productive natural resource…
Load More Replies...Oh look, it is me. I'm smiling at the cashier because I like her attitude.
We were also interested in how the artist manages to balance the creative aspects of his work with the business side of things, such as marketing and promotion. Beals told us: “I don’t! I’ve had many people request books, and it’s an ongoing goal to make one, but time is not my friend. The strip has become popular despite my lack of marketing efforts.”
In Pennsylvania USA there were the "blue laws", which dictated that most stores could not be open. As malls proliferated in the early/mid 70's and started to take the lion's share of sales, downtown stores would send out employees to buy things @ the malls on Sundays and then file a complaint with a local magistrate. It wasn't long until the "blue laws" were deemed unconstitutional and all stores including downtown stores were open on Sundays & holidays. It was the beginning of the end for downtown department stores.
Load More Replies...We've all been there. Just tune in to a different station while they rant and rave. But I have learned that saying "are you done?" never ends well.
My personal favorites are the ones who come in on Thanksgiving (for something totally non-essential) and say, "I don't think it's right that they make you work on a holiday!" THEN STAY HOME YOU FLARKING IDIOT!
I actually hate the 24/7 retail business.... Everyone has the right to have a weekend and not to have to listen to shite talk 😉
When we started to have 24/7 retail stores, people were against it a lot. Until the people who actually work there, managed to get what they wanted, the 24/7 opening hours. It's a bliss for people who function better at night and it's also much better pay than day shifts.
Load More Replies...I had a customer ask me if we were open Thanksgiving Day. When I said yes, she says "Oh ...that's so nice of you to stay open as a convenience to us." I said "Ma'am...we're not open to be nice. We're open because customers demand it." She says "Oh...I didn't think about it like that."
I remember when stores are closed on Sunday, malls department stores do you name . And. Definately closed on major holidays.
Omg I'm so glad youre open on Christmas day. I really fancied an ice cream -i hate you.

No hable English, only American! Next time pick a different hotel. I've heard Sandals sounds pretty good around September 7th to the 13th. Just make room for Dana and Donna Carter. Say happy birthday to Donna and happy Anniversary to both. Love Sandals.
I'm an American, and I often can't even stand my own sense of entitlement...
Then, we were curious about how the comic artist stays up to date with current trends and developments in the comic industry. Stephen said: “I read as much as I can. Reading cartoonists’ posts or articles on sites like Bored Panda is really the best way to keep up. There are many cartoonists I have been fortunate enough to know, and talking with them is always amazing. Cartoonists are the nicest people! Cartooning moved from print to digital. The reasonable expectation of pay was lost in a sea of web goop. I see digital subscriptions and sites continuing to be the future.”

Load More Replies...I actually love self checkout so I don't have to deal with the cashier and queues and any other chitchat my anxiety-riddled introvert brain comes up with!
I honestly like self checkout... But I have also worked some version of retail most of my life and anything that helps me not interact with people is fine by me 😆
Mixed feelings. On the one hand, unless they are paying me to cashier I would prefer a person being paid to do it. On the other, when all I have is a gallon of ice cream it might melt waiting on line for a human cashier...
Everytime my mom and I go to the store she REFUSES to use these. I love them
It's convenient for capable people who do not want to wait for slowpokes counting every penny or slmps hitting on the cashier.
I worked in a shop, scanning goods but getting paid for it... Now I go to a shop and scan goods to pay for it.
I'm even worse than that. I clip "coupons" and "deals" to create my shopping list, then I add the items from the list into my "cart", and pay for my groceries … all on their app! Get this - they bring them right to my door! Some exvellent things DID come out of the pandemic. Especially for we introverts.
Load More Replies...And? For introverted and anti-social people, this is a good thing. Stay in your lane.
I did not load up $200 worth of groceries to do the work of scanning and bagging!
“And if you complain about the government stalking you, why do you still come here?”
That is the FUNNIEST c**p I have read yet!!! Ssssooooooo great!!! Best passive aggressiveness I've seen in ages
Bahahaha! How great this would be! I’ve had people huff off and yell that they’re never coming back, only to see them again with no shame over the scene they made. Wish I’d have had a scrapbook! 😂
Finally, we wanted to find out if Stephen has other creative projects or mediums he would like to explore in the future. Beals revealed: “Two things on my Fiddle About and Have Fun List: Painting and writing a mystery novel. A funny mystery novel. Will I write it? That’s the mystery.”
You lose one, you gain one. Just wish it wasn't the same person all the time.
“Prices are too high!” Bring that energy and anger to the polls on Election Day, and things might improve.
My mother was an "I'm never coming back" type, but she stuck to it religiously. Had a whole list of restaurants she refused to go to over some minor sleight. Is it really the norm for them to come back?
It is high irregular for them to actually not go back lol
Load More Replies...I don't get that? Why would regular customers regularly fill out surveys about their cashier? O.o Is that normal in the US/some countries?
We get these prompts but they do nothing about the real grievances of $$ & availability!!😕

Been there done that. Then you are out of the union and out the door so that they can bring in one of their friends
What promotion? I've worked at the same position for almost 10 years. 12 people who hired on after me got promoted over me. Why? Because I'm too good at my job. I'm more dependable, accurate, and faster than any of our other cashiers, and the customers love me -- not my words, my boss's on my last evaluation. Hence, no promotion.
Real promotions are less hassle, equal or less work but same pay. Or the one where you get more money with less of the others.
If I wouldn't get fired, I would *love* to be brave enough to answer with that last panel at my job.
Imagine the staff growing balls collectively and ALL walk out. Ohhhh the realization that employees actually have the power, and not employers.

120% TRUEEE! My grandma always told my mother that 'people don't care or stunts with other people's wealth, intelligence, looks, etc but people do care and stunt with act of kindness' Kindness is actually your secret weapon if you use them right. Be kind with limit.
In The Netherlands they are actually obligated to have chairs for the cashiers and that is not a luxury at all. Just imagine standing at one place for hours on end... Still, I loved working retail every minute of the hour 😊
US, also, I think, in Canada. Couple of other places probably, but yeah, it's definitely s****y and a sign and weaknesses, when you need people to stand all day, just so you feel like someone. Gross.
Load More Replies...And this is pretty much how it will continue to work until the "small" people rebel. Which, we actually do have the right to do. 1st amendment after the freedom of speech, religion, and press.

This is all correct. I get tired of seeing nothing on the shelves, also. And what's left on the shelves is cr*p you'd never buy in a million years. So would I ever buy lemon-lime corn flakes?
Well if I was starving maybe I would as a very last restort.

That's interesting. Might I ask where you're from? I remember shortages at the beginning of the pandemic and then again at the beginning of russian war on Ukraine, but since then it's basically just back to normal (though more expensive, of course).
Load More Replies...This reminds me of when I am looking for a product in an internet shop, and they show search results sorted after relevance. Relevant for whom I wonder?
Be honest you would have bought the same thing if there was full shelfs
People like to have the flexibility and feel of “i can pick anything, but imma pick This.” When they’re cornered to pick what they would’ve gotten anyways, It’s like that pingu moment “well now I am not doing it!”
Load More Replies...Watches a guy come in right as the doors open and we had a pallet on the floor in frozen. I guess we were in his way (the doors open at 6). So me and my buddy didn't realize it was "that time" so we move it. This is all while he's shaking his head at us as if we just ruined his day (I work 3rds). So after we move it, he casually strolls over to the microwave meals. Then proceeded to buy 50 of them leaving none for anyone else right after we just finished stocking the meals and making it look nice. Ahhh, but yes we were the inconvenient ones.
Sadly, too often in my Branche (reception/hotels/event management) the "bosses" don't back you up as soon as a booking/gooogle/whatnot review is in danger of reducing their houses rating, or a customer yellls. Just happened to me recently. Started yelling, I tried calmly and friendly, to calm her down, she said you are working for me, you habe to do everything to make me happy, it's your job, and stop talking to me like a rabid dog. Ah well, brothers and sisters, we all suffer. Mostly through arrogant, stupid, entitled idiots.

Some would argue that canned food can, at times, depending on the product, be fresher than fresh food. This is because canning is often done immediately at the time of catch or harvest, while fresh food can travel great distances, spend a lot of time in trucks, warehouses, and stores, before ending up in your home.
We've seem to have ignored the main problem here, the customer is on the phone while checking out, no service until phone is put away.
I swear that cashier was modeled on me -- acting friendly and helpful, but seething with hate inside.

There's one at every job that makes you rethink your choice in jobs.
Reminds me of a supervisor interview I once had. The store (it was a starbucks licensed store owned by a third party) was a bit of a hot mess but had a ton of potential, so I went in with that perspective in mind. Apparently I lost them at "I really like working here."
I once worked for a business that needed serious changes in order to grow, and brought a bunch of ideas for improvement based on my experience with other companies to upper management. I got shut down with "we're already a successful business, we know what we're doing". Like, y'all just opened your 97th store, but you only have 48 stores still open. That's not great. The company I worked for before had over 3000 stores. I think my knowledge and experience might outweigh yours.
Have you ever work somewhere and they said that they offer insurance but nobody could afford the insurance that they were offering? You'll be making minimum wage and they'll be like that's $175 a week. I'm talking about or minimum wage was like $7.25 an hour. At $7.25 an hour you can't even afford to pay your own bills.
I worked there. But at the time minimum wage was more like $5.50. I eventually got enough raises to get to $7.25, but by then minimum wage went to $7.25 so I was still making the same as a new hire. And they went up on insurance to cover the cost of the raises
Load More Replies...As soon as you step in the door. Stand there. Wipe off cart. Check list. Put child in cart. Grab circular. MOOOOOOOOVVVVEE!!!!!!!
In full seriousness, when I worked as a cashier in a lumber department, this happened frequently. My lumber guys knew just enough to do basic checkouts, but they weren't trained on the register properly. But I often went the last 5+ hours of my day with no one available in the cashiering dpartment to cover my break (including my superiors, night shift usually meant my superiors at customer service til close). So my guys would watch the till and do what they could, but anything else had to wait for my potty break to be over. Such is the life in retail!
Load More Replies...Training?! You don't need no stinking training, with your attitude training would be redundant. Move along, now.
What would you need training for? You've been shopping hundreds of times, you're already a pro by way of observation! And if you've used a self checkout before you may as well ask for a raise!
