1. I worked at Comcast *Flameshield up* for about 2-3 years and during the training there was a talk about trying to make sure you speak as clearly and as detailed as possible. The reason they stressed it so much was because a tech was trying to walk an old lady through fixing her internet and when he asked her to right click on a box she apparently wrote the word "click" on her monitor screen where the box was. They had to buy her a new monitor. 2. Unfortunately I was the stupid customer in this instance: When I was younger I went to the mall to hit up the arcade for a bit and right before I left I decided to hit up EB Games. After looking around & realizing I'm not interested in anything at the moment I started to head out & the dude asked if there was anything they could help me with. Now I'm not sure what exactly went through my head for why I thought to ask this but I remembered one of my games back at home wasn't working for some reason and my stupid ass asked if I could bring in my defective copy & they replace it for me. I knew it was stupid the moment it left my mouth. He just kinda stared blankly at me for a moment and rudely (understandably) said no. I just left after that.

I work at a vet clinic, and don't often come in contact with actual clients. But there was this one chick who brought her dog in, and it had a slight, fixable problem. She was way to ready to euthanize it.

Am I the only person who isn't a piece of shit to employees who are doing their job?

I work at little Caesars. I hate it when people come in late at night expecting five hot and ready pizzas, and I tell them it'll be six minutes, then they rant at me about how the pizzas weren't ready. Like, do you really think we can constantly be replacing old pizzas when we're slow and still make a profit?

I worked overnights at a 24hr gas station. I have too many stories. Soon as last call hits the bars stuff goes sideways for us. Once had a drunk man decked out in a fancy suit and tie come in and lay down in our showcase ice cooler. (Basically a open cooler filled with ice, for beer and Gatorades during the day, coincidentally the size of a twin size bed) walked in. looked at it. layed down and wiggled a little so he'd sink into the ice, and went to sleep. Our gas station had a drive through car wash. I once had a guy come in and ask if he could use it to clean his motor by leaving his hood up. I told him no, that could end with severe damage when the brush rollers pass over it, and that a DIY car wash might be better since most have selectable engine degreaser for the powerwash wand now. He said ok that sounds good but he's pressed for time so he was going to wash the outside of his car here and the motor there. So of course 10 minutes later he comes in livid, screaming he was going to sue because our car wash, Ripped his "closed hood" off and broke his windshield with it, then soaked him and the interior and when he paniced and backed out, got 2 flats from running over the hood. Karma I'd say. Damage to the carwash was so severe it was down for a full year. lol.

So I've worked at a GameStop before and have had a pretty good experience with most of my customers. Not a lot of them were that bad until one day a little kid and what looked like his mom walked in. We get this a lot, so I gave them the game he wanted and they left without incident. The rest of the day is normal and we're about to close up shop, when that kid and his mom walked in again, several hours later. They walked up to me and the mom started shouting something about a turd being in the case of the game. I of course don't believe it, so they bring it back and there it is. A -blam!-ing turd in this kids case, with no disc. As we're trying to figure this stuff out, it hits me. I walk over and say "I see how this happened. We get this a lot." They look confused and then I clarify with saying "You bought Halo."

i will show you the entire email conversation from a customer and i. and he is insulting my masterpiece meals. here is the full conversation. Hello, I am writing in response to your ad looking for a caterer for your Christmas dinner party. I am a freelance chef with a lot of catering experience. I was the top chef at the world renowned Restauran de Bon Foodeux for over five years. If you are still looking for a caterer, let me know. Thanks, Michael From Brian to Me: michael thank you for responding. what are your rates? we are expeting about twenty people at are dinner party so will need enough food for all of them. can you supply the food and we reembirse you? also do you have a menu of mealss you cook for us to choose from? From Me to Brian Brian, Supplying the food will not be a problem. I have a wide variety of exquisite dishes for you to choose from, which I will list below. My rates are per person and it depends on the meal, but generally ranges from $20-$40 per person. Here are the meals I typically offer: 1. La Nouille du Triomphe: A meal of pure bliss and flavor - a delicious plate of ramen noodles boiled in the purest of water. Noodles can be flavored with either chicken or beef seasoning. 2. Le Repas du Fromage Délicieux: A mouthwatering bowl of easy mac cooked to perfection in a microwave. Served with a side of peanut M&Ms. 3. Le Repas de la Faim de Grande Personne: A delectably and savory microwaved TV dinner. The dish comes with two pieces of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, freshly grown vegetables and a satisfying brownie that is heated to absolute perfection. 3. Le Sandwich Rouge: A truly phenomenal sandwich consisting of ketchup spread over a carefully microwaved piece of bread, and then topped with another piece of bread. Comes with a side of mayonnaise for dipping. Dessert: 4. Le Plat du Lait et de la Céréale: A satisfying end to your meal, this dessert consists of a bowl of fruit loops served with either skim or 2% milk. Milk can be substituted with water for those on a diet. 5. La Pâtisserie Bourrée: Individually wrapped twinkies that have been microwaved to sheer delight. Let me know which meals you are interested in, and I can give you a quote on how much everything will cost. Thank you, Michael From Brian to Me: what the -blam!- you actually cater that shit to people ? yea i'm gonna serve easy mac and twinkies for christmas dinner are you -blam!-in kidding me. my son in college could make that shit! From Me to Brian: Brian, The twinkies aren't for everyone. I understand if you are on a diet, but for me, nothing celebrates the birth of Jesus like a twinkie and some good easy mac. If you aren't interested in that meal, would you consider any of my other options? My personal favorite is Le Sandwich Rouge. That is also very affordable. For twenty people, it would probably cost you about $400. Michael From Brian to Me: cut the bullshit fancy french names and call it a goddamn gross ass ketchup sandwich From Me to Brian: Brian, I am personally offended that you are insulting my masterpiece meals. These are perfected family recipes that have been passed down for generations of chefs in my family. Cooking is my art, and for you to insult me without even trying my work is just plain rude. Michael. so that's the end of it. he is rude right?

I worked at Burger King during my senior year and people are just, disappointing. There was this fancy ass guy with a nice car and a hell of a suit. You'd think the guy was smart but: "Hi, can I help you?" "I would like an order of McNuggets, a McChiken-" "I'm sorry sir this is Burger King" "Oh...so you don't have McNuggets" "No that's McDonalds" "What about the all day breakfast thing going on?" "McDonalds" "Where am I?" "Burger King" Or this guy: "Hi, I would like a cheeseburger without cheese." "So a hamburger correct?" "No, I said a cheeseburger" "Uh..ok" *puts in hamburger* "And a cherry milkshake" "We have a cherry slushy but not a milkshake" "Same thing!" "Anything else?" "Your round fries" "The onion rings?" "What your name?" "Jason" "Well Jason you're being very complicated right now. I just want my food." Really? If you're going to look the part at least try.

My wife was working the registers in our shop one Friday afternoon, she's a Christian so she wears a gold necklace with a small cross on it. She was serving a husband and wife, when the man saw her necklace he told her that she shouldn't be allowed to wear it at work, my wife said she can wear whatever she wants; then his wife was pissed that my wife defended herself and demanded to speak to the owner. I come down and hear what's happened and I tell the customers to leave, they then tell me they are going to sue me and close my business down, all over a necklace. Some people are just ridiculous.

I've worked with customers for the better part of 20 plus years. I actually have several tales to spin, however it would be a TL';DR kinda thing. One of the more recent though is really shows what people THINK they can do. I work in Logistics at a place that sells police vehicle equipment. I do answer phones and do sales occasionally though. One day this guy calls looking for equipment, we discuss some products and I ask him what agency he works for...This is where things turn. He tells me he and some friends of his are going to start[i] their own [/i]police agency. They had already purchased vehicles and they need to be upfitted. I said that didn't sound like it was even possible but if I could get his name, address and phone number I would be glad to send him some catalogs. He said he would call back.

Worked at a grocery store in high school. Around 11pm this chick who was obviously high was caught on CCTV smearing pudding on her shirt and hair. Manager asked me to take care of it so I ran and tackled her right into the case cooler and got us all covered in dairy stuff. He didn't specify how to stop her. Got fired. Then at a pet store I convinced a stocker if he dangled his wiener in a goldfish tank they would nibble on it. He got caught and told the district manager I suggested it so we both got fired. Been fired 11 times before the age of 21. Was a hobby in my younger days. I loved customer service jobs. Sigh. Such entertainment.

"Do you work here?" No, I wear the uniform for fun.

Ooooohhhhh my -blam!-ing god I got roasted by a retarded customer once.

Bump for later

As a medic I have a ton, but I can't tell you my favorite as it involves a patients name (important to the story) and there's those pesky HIPPA laws.

While in high school, I worked in the school bookstore. Kid came to the window, said he needed a book called "These Are Us" for English class. Wasn't familiar with that, could not find it. I searched all over based on the title, and through all the books for English classes. No "These Are Us" so I had to turn him away. He later came back with a printed book list, and turns out the book he needed was a Thesaurus.

I was at the drive thru at McDonald's waiting to get my food when some guy behind me honked his horn and hit me....he really wanted those nuggets
