from notalwaysright.com Small Fish In A Small Pond Airport | Malmoe, Sweden (Note: I’m waiting to board a delayed flight with one of Europe’s cheapest and largest airlines.) Hostess: “Welcome to flight *** from Malmoe to Dublin. Those of you with seating numbers 1 through 35, please go to line one. Those of you with seating numbers 36 and up, please go to line two. If any of you are traveling with small children or checked in online, please go to the counter and you will be let on board before we start boarding the other passengers.” (A group of businessmen, about 35-55 years old and in suits, walk to the counter and cut in front of a family with very young children.) Hostess: “Well, I can see you didn’t check in online, so you’ll have to stand in line. The first line is for early seating numbers; the second line is for la–” Businessman #1: “Oh, come on… can’t you make an exception? We’re already standing here and all.” Businessman #2: “You only have to board us and we’re done!” Hostess: “No, you’ll have to wait in turn, just like everyone else. The lines start over there.” Businessman #2: “But I always get to board the plane first!” Hostess: “You’re not a family with children and you didn’t check in over the internet, so you’ll have to stand in line.” Businessman #2: *very angrily* “DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!” Hostess: “No, but you can’t be that important if you’re traveling with us.” Businessman #2: *quietly retreats to the back of the line with his buddies* |

A Chance To Play God Florist | Acton, MA, USA Customer: “Hi, I’m going to the temple today, and I need to get some flowers.” Me: “Okay, do you want fresh cut flowers or a potted plant?” Customer: “A potted plant. Tell me, what color do you think God would like today?” Me: “Excuse me?” Customer: “Last week I got yellow flowers and I think God liked them, but He might want something else today.” Me: “Um, I’m pretty sure God is in the mood for red right now.” Customer: “Excellent. Do you think He wants roses or azaleas?” Me: “…” |

Gettin’ Schooled, Kindergarten Style Gas Station | Minneapolis, MN, USA (Our station accepts certain gas coupons which require that the gas be pumped first, and then paid for inside the store. I’ve already instructed this customer to select “pay inside” at the pump before returning to me for the discount.) Customer: “Alright, I’ve put $42 in my car.” *gives me the coupons* Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, but I needed you to select the pay inside option at the pump, and it seems that you have used your credit card outside. My computer system will not authorize this discount.” Customer: “What!? You told me to pump my gas first!” Me: “Yes, but you needed to select the pay inside option like I instructed.” Customer: “So you won’t give me my discount?” Me: “I’m sorry, but there is no way for me to ring it up. These coupons never expire, so you can hang on to it and feel free to use it next time.” Customer: “This is outrageous! You are a poopy face mister! You’re grounded!” *storms out* |

The Store, My Friend, Is Blowing In The Wind Retail | Florida, USA Customer: *on the phone* “I’ve been trying to order a book from your store in Palm Harbor for the last two days, but they never pick up the phone!” Me: “OK, what number are you calling?” (The customer gives me the number and I check our records. She has been calling the right number.) Customer: “I’ve been calling and calling and they never, EVER answer! It’s so unprofessional! I need you to contact them for me.” Me: “Well, to be honest, if they never pick up for you, they’re not going to pick up for me either, but I’ll see if our manager has a suggestion.” Customer: “Well, obviously you should try calling on the employee line!” Me: “We don’t have that, ma’am. We call each other’s stores with the same numbers you’re using.” Customer: “When you get through to them, tell them I want them to order this item…” (The customer gives me all the book information and her phone number, then proceeds to complain about how frustrated and angry she is about our company’s terrible attitude. I talk to my district manager, who gives me some very important news. I relay the following to this woman’s answering machine…) Me: “Hello, I’m calling you back about the item you wanted ordered from another store in our chain. Unfortunately, we’ve just found out that our Palm Harbor store was blown away in the recent hurricane. I’m sure this is why they’re not answering their phone. Please give us a call back any time, and let us know if we can assist you further. Have a nice day!” |

Just Check The Stalk’s Expiration Date Farm Stand | Nova Scotia, Canada (This happened during corn season last year.) Customer: “Excuse me, how fresh is this corn?” Me: “It was just picked this morning, so it’s about as fresh as it gets.” Customer: “Yes, but God knows how long it’s been growing!” |

Going For Broke With The Gouda Pizza | Cottonwood Heights, UT, USA Me: *on the phone* “**** Pizza, will this be for delivery or carry-out?” Caller: “Delivery.” (We go through the order, and we come to the toppings.) Caller: “Yeah, a supreme pizza. And make sure the toppings aren’t cheesy!” Me: “You don’t want cheese on them?” Caller: “No! I said I don’t want them to be cheesy!” Me: “Um, our toppings are of good quality…” Caller: “I’m sure they are, but I don’t want them cheesy! CHEESY!” (I hear a kid’s voice in the background.) Caller: “Oh, my eight-year-old says to say, ‘don’t hold back on the toppings’. You understand that?” Me: “Oh…yes, I understand now.” Caller: “Good. Don’t be cheesy.” |

It’s How Old Folks Say I Love You Gas Station | Fridley, MN, USA (I’m ringing up a young man’s order. There’s an older regular customer drinking coffee at a table across from our counter.) Me: “Okay, your total comes to $5.63.” Young man: “Oh, all I have is $5. I left my wallet at home.” Older customer: “What’s he short, a dollar? Here, I’ll give him a dollar. Come here kid.” (The young man walks over to the older customer’s table to get the dollar.) Young man: “Thank you, thank you so–” Older customer: “WHY DON’T YOU GET A F***ING JOB?!” Young man: *runs out of the store* |

Why Judgment Day’s Gonna Be A Cakewalk Retail | Phoenix, AZ, USA (I’ve just finished ringing up some items for a customer and her daughter.) Me: “It looks like your customer card is about to expire. Would you like to renew it now?” Customer: “Yes, I would.” Me: “Okay, just press the green button on the key pad.” (The total rings up as $24.32.) Customer: “Okay, I want to pay cash.” Me: “Okay…” (We stand there for a few seconds as the customer continues to stare at the total on the register.) Customer: “Well, what do I do?” Customer’s daughter: “Are you serious?” Customer: “Yeah, there is no cash button. What do I do?” Customer’s daughter: “Mom.” Customer: “What?” Customer’s daughter: “Hand the poor woman your cash.” Customer: *hands me cash* “I’m so sorry…I’m used to the machine telling me what to do!” Customer’s daughter, to me: “She’s not too bright, but she is real pretty. She’ll probably die first when the Terminators come.” Customer: “Smart a**!” |

Saving The Earth, 7 MPG At A Time Bookstore | Calgary, AB, Canada (A customer comes up to the counter with her arms full of books. After I ring them all through, I proceed to put her books in a bag.) Customer: “Actually, I don’t need a bag. I’m doing my part to save the environment!” Me: “Oh, okay then!” (I hand her her receipt and wish her a nice day, but she doesn’t move.) Customer: “Excuse me…aren’t you going to help me carry my books to my car?” Me: “I’m sorry, I can’t. I’m the only employee working here and there are other customers.” Customer: “I beg your pardon? That’s rather rude! Help me carry my books to my car! They do it at grocery stores all the time. There is no reason why you can’t do it here!” Me: “We don’t do that sort of thing here. If you want, you can bring back your bags. We’ll gladly re-use them.” Customer: “No, I can’t do that! Now help me take my books to the car!” Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am. I just can’t leave the store unattended.” Customer: “Fine! But if I drop my books and damage them, you’re giving me free replacements!” (The customer scoops all her books up in her arms and storms out. I watch her walk all the way across to the other side of the parking lot, stop, and intentionally drop her books into a puddle. She stomps back in and barges her way to the front of the line.) Customer: “See, look what happened! Give me your phone right now! I am calling your managers and you’re going to get fired!” Me: “Alright, here is the number for our downtown store.” (The customer picks up the store phone and begins dialing.) Customer:“Yes, I need to speak with the manager right away… Yeah I’m at your south store and your incompetent employee wouldn’t help me carry my books to my car. I dropped them and now they are ruined!… Well, yes… Yes she did offer me bags… No, I’m not disabled… Yes I’m aware that shes the only… What?! I can’t believe this!” (The customer hangs up the phone, defeated and turns to me.) Customer: “You should be ashamed of yourself! At least I’m saving the environment!” (I watch her walk through the parking lot again and get into her vehicle. Ironically, it’s a huge SUV.) |
