None of these customers were sucky, per se, merely annoying, but I've had a (glorious) lack of really sucky customers lately (knock on wood) so here we go.
Thank You Captain Obvious
Stupid Woman [from four aisles away]: EXCUSE ME! HEY!
Me: Yes, ma'am?
SW: Are these for music?
*Hold up a 10 pack of CD-Rs that are quite clearly labeled "CD-R MUSIC*
Me: Yes.
SW: So I can use these to make a CD in iTunes and play it in my car?
Me: Absolutely. Or you could use them to burn a data CD, a picture CD, or anything else that fits on a CD.
SW: You mean I can put pictures on them too!!!!
Me: Yep.
SW: Wow! I didn't know that!
Me: A CD-R is a CD-R. The "music" part is basically meaningless.
SW: Wow! That saves me from having to buy more! Thanks!
Me: No problem. *stupid git.....*
Let me defecate one for you.....
*walking up to a husband and wife. Wife is pregnant*
Me: What can I help you find today?
Sucky Wife: I need a footrest to go under my desk.
Me: Well, we do carry those, but only one model, and I believe it's out of stock. *walks over to that area*
Me: Yeah, iit's still out of stock. But I can see if any of our other locations have one, or I can order one for you.
SW: No, that's OK.
Me: OK, is there is anything else you need today?
SW: Yeah......A FOOT REST!!!!!! Do you have any others out back.
*You know, I understand that you are pregnant and that your feet must hurt because of it, but that doesn't grant me the magical power to 
footrests for you.*
Me: No ma'am. They are out of stock *points to OUT OF STOCK* tag* but as I said, I can try and see if another store has one, or I can order one for you.
SW: Ok, cna you see if another store has one?
Me: Sure. *jots down SKU*
So I went over to the inventory system and checked the three closest stores. All of them had the footrest in stock. I went back over to where the customers were, and they had left! WTF! They were no where in sight, so I just went about my business.
Maybe fifteen minutes later
Sucky Husband: EXCUSE ME!!!!!
Me: Yes?
SH: Do you have this in stock? *points to cheap-ass crapp plastic computer desk*
Me: I dont' know off hand, but I'll check. By the way, all the area store have the footrest in stock. Were you heading north or south?
SH: Huh? We're live in Massachusetts.
*that would be SOUTH, numbnuts!*
Me: OK, [location] has them in stock.
SH: OK, did you have this desk?
Me: I don't know, I haven't checked yet. I'll be right back.
*heads into back room; finds desk; resists urge to scream; brings out desk*
Me: Yep, got one right here.
*Sucky Husband eyes box suspiciously*
SH: Was this returned????
Me: Nope. It's unopened.
SH: Are you sure?????
Me: Yes sir. The box is just dirty.
SH: Fine. We'll take it.
Me: Would you be interested in an all-inclusive protec---
SH: NO. Thank you.
Me: Fine. I'll leave this at the registers for you.
Are you colorblind or something? I DO NOT WORK HERE!!!!!!
Stopped in at Shaw's after work to exchange a bad box of crackers I'd purchased there before my shift (the inner bag wasn't sealed right). Had some woman SCREAM for me to help her at the meat counter!
SW: Hey! HEY! HEY!!!!!!! HEY!!!! YOU THERE!!!!!!
Me: I don't work here.
SW: I need help here!
ME: I DO NOT WORK HERE!!!!!!! The employees here wear GREEN!!!
I walked away in my RED shirt.
Thank You Captain Obvious
