I came today 3.24 trying to find stuff to stage a house. I walked around the store and after 3 min I asked the guy who is working here, he identifies as D, about design books. His response was “ everything is everywhere “ and “ if you want a books go directly to Barnes and Noble”. Then he raised me his voice and i asked him why he was rude to me his response was “ I don’t care what you say “ then I asked to lower his voice and he told me “ bye, bye” and waved his hand to me. He is not customer oriented and his behavior was aggressive towards me. After I left the store he closed the door and hasn’t allowed a client to get in. 2 min ago he just allowed a guy in blue shirt to get in the store and closed the door again. D must be train in customer service and manners. He was RUDE and his behavior is unacceptable!!!!!

"We don't process returns here." What I was told earlier today by the team member at the counter. Despite this being a Goodwill Central Texas location with shelves and racks of items to purchase (so it's not a 'donations ONLY' location, and Goodwill's website saying "Present the item(s) with the attached tag and original receipt at any Goodwill Central Texas location."
