Couples fight a lot at IKEA
There’s nothing more awkward than running into a couple that’s on the verge of swinging at each other. There are tears and raised voices that just makes everyone uncomfortable, but these things are unavoidable if you work at IKEA. You can probably guess why couples get into arguments while shopping at one of the warehouses.
One employee disclosed that the most popular reason couples fight is over furniture. Shopping for furniture is the mark of a serious relationship, and apparently, people take their furnishing preferences very seriously. Maybe IKEA employees should also receive couples’ therapy training to help diffuse such situations.
