notalwaysright.com Always Right, Especially When It’s Mom Fast Food, Restaurant | Buffalo, NY, USA Coworker: “Guys! There’s a car pulled in backwards in the drive-thru. They’re backwards!” Backwards customer: “Hi, I just want a fish sandwich and a chocolate milk shake.” Coworker: “I’m sorry. We don’t have those items. Is there something else I can get you?” Backwards customer: “No, I just want a fish sandwich and a chocolate milk shake!” Coworker: “Ma’am, do you realize you’re at [Mexican fast food restaurant]? Would you like a taco?” Backwards customer: “Okay, okay, we’re kidding! Alice, this is your mom and Aunt Marie!” (I happen to be Alice. Family are the worst customers!) |

Like A Robber In A Donut Shop Coffee Shop | Steinkjer, Norway (This is early December, when most of the companies have their big night out. A visibly drunk patron needs to be asked to leave due to inebriation.) Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but I think you’ve had enough for tonight, and I think it’s best if you call it a night.” Customer: “What? I’m not druuunk! You’re ouuut of yoooour mind!” (I guide the drunk customer to the door, which he immediately grabs a hold of to resist being led out of the bar.) Customer: “I’m not leaving! You’re going to have to call the cops to get me out of here!” Me: “Well, sir, if you take a look over at the table with the people looking very intently at us… that’s the police department’s Christmas party.” Customer: *leaves, rather expediently* |

A Number 666 With A Side Of Brimstone Fast Food, Restaurant | Newfoundland, Canada (After serving them their fast food, a woman with a family of six runs up to the counter, furious.) Customer: “You! You stacked our food wrong! Now my kids are crying!” Me: “Pardon?” Customer: “Come look!” (She brings me down to their table, where their three pre-teens are crying their eyes out and her husband looks incredibly frustrated.) Customer: “Look!” Me: “Ma’am, I don’t see anything wrong with your food–” Customer: “[Child #1] is supposed to eat first, but his food is on the bottom! We won’t be able to get it without moving the other things!” Me: “I don’t think I understand.” Customer: “He’s the first person on the left! He has to eat first, or Satan will claim his soul!” Me: “Uh…” (I decide to ask counter-clockwise around the table what everyone ordered, and hand them their food out off the pile.) Customer:, “Oh, thank you! You will serve as a warrior of God someday!” Me: “…right.” (That family still shows up once a month or so, and suffice to say, I always run out to see what order they’re sitting in before I serve their food.) |

Tall-Size Steps Towards Venti-Size Change Coffee Shop | Virginia, USA (A regular customer comes through the drive-thru. She’s a difficult person to deal with and we have a new barista on bar tonight.) Customer: “My usual, please.” (I take her money and keep an eye on our new barista while he makes her tricky drink. He makes it just right. When the barista hands it over to me, she pulls a face suddenly.) Customer: “Who’s THAT?” Me: “Oh, that’s ****, our newest barista! He took extra care with your drink tonight. I was watching.” (I had been watching him make it and knew it was perfect. She then took a sip and made a face.) Customer: “Too sweet! Honey, could YOU just make it for me? YOU always get it right.” Me: “Sure.” (I go to the bar and pretend to make things next to the new guy, who is really making her drink. Then I walk over and hand the new barista-made beverage out to her.) Customer: *sipping* “Mmm! PERFECT! I knew YOU wouldn’t let me down!” Me: “Actually, **** made that one, too. I just kept an extra eye on him to make sure it was absolutely perfect, and now he knows exactly how to do it for next time, too!” Customer: “….uh… well…it IS a little OFF, but I’ll let it slide this time.” |

Best Bytes In The Bunch Computer Store | Toronto, Ontario, Canada (An elderly man approaches me to purchase a Mac laptop for his granddaughter.) Customer: “Hey, I have some questions about that laptop.” Me: “Sure, what can I help you with?” Customer: “That laptop is an Apple, right?” Me: “Yes.” Customer: “I’m buying it for my granddaughter, but she’s allergic to apples. Can I get the same one, but in another fruit?” Me: “…what? You do know that the laptops aren’t made of apples?” Customer: “Then why display only an apple? It should be a selection.” Me: “…I’ll get someone to help you.” |

One Scamwich, Coming Right Up Sandwich Store | Texas, USA Customer: “Yeah, we were in earlier and ordered 2 turkey sandwiches, a ham sandwich and a club sandwich, all a foot long. There were flies in them so I want you to give me a refund.” Manager: “There were flies in your sandwiches?” Customer: “Yes, it was gross. I want my money back!” Manager: “Well, where are the sandwiches? Why didn’t you bring them right back?” Customer: “I was already home by the time we opened them.” Manager: “Well, do you have your receipt?” Customer: “No! I just want my money back, there were flies in my sandwiches!” Manager: “Sir, I’m going to have to check and make sure there was an order that matches before I can see about a refund.” Customer: “…huh?” *long pause, then hurries out of the store* |

Because that’s how you say it, LAS AngeLAS!” Me: “…” Customer: “I can’t believe no one has ever noticed this before!” Me: “Yeah, it’s shocking…” |

Customer: “I had an allergic reaction to a Vanilla Ice Blended from the store in [other location] and the manager there said I could have whatever I wanted here for free.” Me: “I’m sorry to hear about that. Do you have a receipt?” Customer: “I had to drive out to Cedars-Sinai last night and I was there until four in the morning! The people at [other location] said I could have anything I wanted!

The Princess Is A Royal Pain Retail | Utah, USA (A woman came up to my counter in the clothing store I work in. She has a very distressed look on her face.) Me: “How can I help you this morning?” Customer: “What is this red sticker on the tag of this dress?” Me: “That is a clearance sticker. That dress is 40% off.” Customer: “But I was here yesterday and it wasn’t on clearance! I’ve been eying that dress for weeks!” Me: “Well, today is your lucky day - it went on clearance this morning.” Customer: “I can’t buy it on clearance. Can you take that red sticker off the tag?” Me: “Are you going to buy this dress?” Customer: “I’m going to buy it once you take off that red tag. I don’t want to pay the clearance price.” Me: “Even if I remove the sticker the register will still ring it up at clearance price.” Customer: “Do I look like I’m the type to buy a dress on clearance?” *holds the dress up dramatically* Me: “Are you planning on buying this dress?” Customer: “Are you planning on taking off that red sticker?” Me: “Not until you pay for it.” Customer: “You don’t understand my world.” (She left the dress on the counter and walked out of the store.) |

An Insurance Company’s Nightmare Retail | California, USA (A customer came in looking for an item to prop up books and papers, making them easier to read without having to use your hands.) Me: “You’re looking for a copy holder. We have several different types, and they’re right over here.” Customer: *looks over selection* “These won’t work. I need one that will attach to my steering wheel in my car.” Me: “I’m sorry, but we don’t carry anything like that. These are just meant to go on your desk next to your computer.” Customer: “I can’t believe you don’t carry that. Why don’t you sell a book holder for a steering wheel?” Me: “Maybe because we don’t want you to read while you’re driving?” |
