Anyone who has ever worked in the retail sector probably knows the age-old motto: “The Customer Is Always Right.” While this is a well-intentioned piece of advice for good customer service, it doesn’t mean it’s true! In fact, there's a whole website devoted to exposing the truth behind the myth, aptly named Not Always Right.

Some customers, because they are people like any others, make mistakes. They might have had a bad day, feel overly emotional and take it out on the nearest person, who just happens to be their waiter. Some people are just unrealistic in their demands, and expect the impossible. And of course, there will be a few customers out there that are just idiots, plain and simple.

The guys from Not Always Right have compiled a list of stories from times when customers got it very wrong indeed, with hilarious results! Scroll down below to check them out, and don’t forget to vote for your favorite!

...I'm so confused THE CUSTOMER called tight? So it can't be a scam unless they got the wrong number

Years ago, when I started working in an office, one of the things we were taught was that when answering a call, take a few seconds, a deep breath and smile, then answer the phone.

I had a CS service job once where I had to answer calls and one day I answered the phone with a smile (in my voice) the caller didn't answer so I said, Hello? U still there? Then the caller exclaimed, your voice was so perfect, I thought you were a recording!! *L* I didn't know if I should be insulted or feel complimented.

I work in a call center, and we have to smile whilst talking on the phones. Apparently, it gives the customers a positive experience

Yep happy they should be happy. Compared to what is available around here for a job. They have a chair, air conditioning, probably a preset schedule. So many people around here work in non-AC warehouses even when the temp goes over 100 with 60+ humidity. They are making very close to minimal wage with only a few days off a year. So yeah that person should be happy. Sounds like a dream job for those with little job experience, or no ability to further their education or career.
