More like a yell fest.
Customer tried to pick a fight with cashier A today because A called over the "next person in line". Well, person after customer went up because customer was distracted for a minute counting the things in her cart. Customer comes up to me and yells across two cash registers that she was next.
"Well, ma'am, sorry, you need to tell us next time!"
"But I was trying to be polite and not cause a scene!"
You already started one, lady, by yelling in the first place.
.
But Customer was a pain in the rear anyway, she wanted to use a coupon for "Meadow" air freshener spray that we didn't carry and got upset when I told her I couldn't use it. She kept asking if I scanned her "healthiness +" card when I kept telling her yes. Every time Customer is in my store, there's some sort of problem.
Brazen, Much?
Customer comes up with two hairbrushes, one is one clearance, one is not and is brand new. She says, "Ralerin, I know this is on clearance but this new one is right next to this one and I hate the awful green color of the clearance brush. Can I get the new one for the clearance price?"
"No can do. if it's not on clearance and not on sale otherwise, not going to happen".
"I'll ask SM (who was right next to me) if she'll make an exception!"
SM shot her down.
But who does that, going up to someone and asking if she can get a brand new item for the clearance price because she doesn't like the color? At least customer took the brush but it could've been worse, customer could've further asked for a discount because the brush was used or something.

I went out and did some truck for the first time in AGES today and it's like, Holy Crap, I had at least ten people come up to me and ask me where X,Y, and Z was. I'm the "go to" person for finding things and I think people know this or can sense it. Another example of this phenomenon: busy Friday, busy cash registers all day. Took me 3 hours to do 2 totes because I literally only put one thing out on the shelf before being called back. GAH!
Bonus: WEIRD Weather
In the space of an hour we went from thunderstorm pouring rain, to no rain, to a sky turning white, to sickly green, to yellow and glowy and a rainbow that "ended" nearly in front of the store (Aid of Rite at the end of the rainbow
) with streaks of lightning flashing across it and the rainbow, to orange, to pink, to bruise purple and finally black as the sun set. It was the oddest thing I ever saw, yet strangely the most beautiful. Especially the rainbow set against the beautiful glowy sky-it was as if everyone and everything was lit with the same light as a candle through yellow moonstone or yellow opalite. No I don't have pictures.

Craziness. I woulda been freaked, heh. That rainbow sounds wicked, though.
