  • Temper Tantrum

    I delt with two different ones today. We are having a good sale on altiods right now and had one lady come in to buy them. We have four different types that were on sale peppermint, wintergreen, cinnamon, cream de menthe. She kept going on and on on how we only had unusual flavors and she wanted one that wasn't an odd flavor. I asked her what flavor did you want. She looked at me and said peppermint I am shocked that you didn't know that.

    The second one was when a guy went up and looked at our bread and some of the pastries acidently got stock where the hot dog buns sign was. He reads it and starts screaming about how this isn't right and how embarrising it would be for him to bring it and have the price be wrong. I looked at him and said that it was a mistake and it wasn't that big of a deal and I would change it when I got a chance because I was busy helping someone else. He starts screaming that it was a big deal and that it happened all the time. I paged a manager up to the front and she asks him what the problem was and he looks at her and says change this now. The lady that I was helping turned around looked at him and said you know sir I don't appreciate you talking over me like that when she is trying to help me if you have a complaint you really need to wait for your turn and it really isn't that big of a deal anyways.

    And ranting and raving about it in the middle of the store is somehow less embarrassing?

    Am I the only one who thinks wintergreen Altoids taste like toothpaste?

      Good for the customer you were helping to tell the other customer off. I love it when a good customer chimes in against a sucktard.

        I don't, but I don't use mint flavored toothpaste.

          I like the new creme de menthe altoids...shamefully I scarf those down like mad (same with the spearmint)...especially the creme de menthe altoids dipped in dark chocolate. God help me, I'm a mintaholic. What the hell crawled up that dude's ass to make a scene over something so small, seriously?!! WTF was his problem.

            You probably use a brand of toothpaste that is flavored with wintergreen. I love wintergreen. What brand is it?

                  Well Mr temper tantrum came in again today. He came up to me and said I am sorry if I was a little rude last week and then started laughing and walked out.

                      They remind me of the old Crest mint flavored toothpaste that I used as a kid . . .

                      Cinnamon's much better IMO.
