  • Birthday Candle Mayhem!

    So yesterday, I clock in and go out on the floor and am readying my station for the day. This guy comes up to me, looking positively miffed. Dialogue spoken by Psycho Man shall be in all caps, because he was yelling.

    Him: YOU! I JUST SPOKE TO YOU ON THE PHONE ABOUT THE BIRTHDAY CANDLES AND YOU WERE VERY RUDE!

    Me: Uh...I just..

    Him: IS THIS HOW THEY LET YOU TREAT THE CUSTOMER? I AM THE CUSTOMER!

    Me: Sir, I just got here, but...

    Him: LIKE HELL YOU DID. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TREATED SO RUDELY IN ALL MY DAYS! GIMME THE MANAGER!

    Me: Sir, I can assure you that I just got here and that it couldn't possibly have been me, but I'll go get the manager for you.


    So I went and got the manager. Later I find out Psycho Man had called before I got there and asked one of the girls who works the service desk if we sold birthday candles. When he was told that we don't, he got pissed and decided the girl was "rude" for telling him we don't sell candles. Anyway, while the manager was trying to deal with him he just kept pointing in my direction and shouting that I should be fired and how can they keep such rude people on payroll? He informed the manager that if we didn't give him some *expletive* candles, and for FREE, he would never shop here again and would tell all his friends not to either.

    He was shown the door.

    I swear some people are so dumb. Instead of argueing like a moron, he could have gone to a store that did sell them, and saved so much time.

    But alas....


    Where is the bleach? Who had it last?

    Olive juice you too.

              I can think of two.
              Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.

                Well, doesn't he know if you had the ability to conjure up objects from thin air you would not be working there in the first place?

                Clearly, he needs to be medicated.

                      How quickly they forget that some of us here can, in fact, do such conjuring and STILL work in this business.

                      I look forward to the day where all I do is, in fact, magic.

                        How about a Roman candle?

                            So let's see, you're telling me that if I don't immediately fire an employee of mine for refusing to sell you a non-existant product we don't have then you'll refuse to give me your non-exsistant buisiness, costing me a grand total of $0?

                              Honestly, you should've all had a good laugh after he left. I mean, he was freaking out over Birthday Candles. Little tiny birthday candles . . . I'd hate to see him freak out over something important . . .
