I havent seen a thread on the new boards on this topic....
Setup: I work at a University, my department has Polo type shirts of different colors that we MUST wear with khaki pants, add to that a clip on badge and the humiliation..err..uniform is complete.
Story: I am in a local super duper center buying a set of pans when a customer walks up to me and taps me HARD on the shoulder (Imagine Dom from office space).
SC: Illiterate shopper
me: Me
SC: Hey!
SC: Hey!!
SC: HEY!!!
SC: HEY [customer walks up to me and taps me HARD on the shoulder (Imagine Dom from office space). ]
Me: [Confused look at they Hey person] What?
SC: Where are your skillets?
Me: [not being able to resist being a smart allec after a long day of niceness] In the cabinet under my oven.
SC: Dont be a smart a-- with me...Where are your {Expletive that begins with F and ends with -ing} SKILLETS [she yelled the word skillets at me]
Me:[getting annoyd] I am sorry, i really dont know....
SC: Thats why I hate shopping here...no one knows where anything is!
Me: Perhaps you should find a smaller store to shop at.
SC: {Expletive that begins with F and sounds like the name of a water fowl} you. I am going to get you fired from here.
Me: Be my guest, and while you are looking for the manager you might want to stop and get your eyes examined.
SC: [flips me off and runs out of the aisle and towards the front].
so i continue my shopping, trying to decide between a 30 dollar set of pans and a 45 dollar set of pans when who should make a repeat appearance? SC and an manager type person.
SC: He cussed me out and threatened to hit me with a pan! [pointing at my bewildered and befuddled self]
MGR TYPE looks befuddled too, thats when i notice that while he has a manager shirt on....its for the local albertsons...not Wally worldland.
MGR TYPE: I cant fire him, he doesnt work for me. I work at another grocery store. He doesnt work at a grocery store anyway [at least he can read my shirt].
SC: I am going to have both of you fired from here, I hope the both of you burn in hxll! [stomps off]
Later on i am checking out when i see SC being escorted out of the store, in handcuffs, by police. I asked the manager what happened and he told me that the SC had come in to complain about me when he noticed some CD's sticking out of her purse. 15 to be exact (she had a purse that was large enough that it could contain enough munitions for the entire pacific fleet). Turns out she had been shoplifting all day...they had her on camera.
