Ruin My Week

I worked in a bike shop when I was a student. A guy came in demanding a refund on every product he had ever purchased from us because the bike he bought 2 years ago was getting a lot of tire punctures. He got so angry he gave me a trespass notice to his cafe I’d never been to.

WIERDEST- same craft store. Woman asks me if we have any shapes. SHAPES. I assume she means maybe pre-cut wood, felt, paper?? Ask her what kind…

Working at a movie theater. A Grandmother buys 3 tickets for Magic Mike. I’m thinking to myself, “Good on ya!” She comes out of the theater 20 mins later LIVID because she thought it was a show about a magician named Mike…that’s why she brought her 2 grandchildren with her.

When I said as much, he proceeded to yell at me and say this was exactly why he didn’t talk to women. Because we are intentionally difficult.
I can’t remember ever being so angry. 😂— SarahATX (@purplelotus13) July 5, 2020

One time I told a lady in the drive-thru that we were out of raspberry doughnuts and she backed her Hummer up and tried to crash into our menu board before hitting the protective pole and destroying her bumper

Weird but not weirdest: this elderly lady was staring at me from across the store and eventually approached me and slowly, without blinking, stroked my cheek saying “I love your white skin” (working in a cosmetics store)

another short one: a lady got mad at me when i worked at a book store because she asked me to take her to the section w/ airplane books, and when i did she scoffed and said “uh, this is the TRANSPORTATION section.” after i showed her the specific shelf for airplanes.

A customer got mad at me because they said their iMac wasn’t working and I asked them if they brought it with them. They said no. I told them I can’t troubleshoot a computer that isn’t here and they got mad at me and stormed out of the store. https://t.co/silOl7NDuX

A regular at our Starbucks loved the iced peach green tea. Over the course of 6 months she went from an extra pump to 20 pumps. I’ll never forget the time I handed her the drink, she immediately started sipping it, then looked up and screamed, “This only tastes like 19 pumps!” https://t.co/2TuCKXcTKr
