30 People In This Thread Are Sharing Stories Of When Their Customers Got Mad For The Dumbest Reasons
If you've worked in retail (or read Bored Panda's article on clients from hell) you probably already know that the customer isn't always right. But in order to paint you an accurate picture of the lengths they're prepared to go to satisfy their unreasonable needs, we invite you to take a look at this Twitter thread.
It started when Kayla (@baz00per) shared her worst experience in front of the counter. "Last week, I had a woman yell at me for putting a straw in her soda cup because 'we need to save our oceans' and then proceeded to order a $55 party boat of raw fish because this is a... sushi bar [sic]".
As her tweet was going viral, other users started relating to one another with similar stories, suggesting that some people might need to wear a muzzle in public.

Wouldn't that be awesome! I'd love to operate that printing press. "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies? Definitely ma'm, if you just sit down for a lil while'.
When we were in the US on vacation, my wife once made me drive her to Bed, Bath and Beyond, then walked around the shop and seemed very confused. "I imagined it to look quite different". She actually wanted to go to Bath and Body Works, which fortunately was 2 doors down in the same shopping centre.
Honestly, this sounds like something my son would say. Not complaining about it or getting mad but, being on the spectrum and having OCD, he would point out that it was indeed longer than stated (same goes for 'we have to make a couple stops before town'. I get the 'a couple is two, we stopped at three places').
The very first one I'll take customers side. Pretty sure she meant save oceans from plastic so the sushi you get won't be full of microplastic.
It's not just one time, but, happens all the time, especially with the shortage of new and used cars. They call in, ask if something is available, and we tell them yes (and we're actually checking since this mess began). They make an appointment for days out, and we tell them the chance of it being around then is low. And, it is. They show up and it's gone. Heck, they could be like so many who are very late for the appointment they set the same day and it is gone. They also get mad that a used car isn't perfect.
