These are mostly things you’d hear in a clothing or department store, but they’re all pretty bad. I think the rudest thing I ever heard wasn’t directed at me, but it still make me cringe–an older customer picked up a box of Wheaties cereal that had Michael Jordan on it and took the time to walk over to me and said “This cereal just doesn’t taste as good with a n***** on the box.” I stared at him for a second, realized he wasn’t kidding and said “I can’t believe that you went out of your way to tell me that. And get out of my store.” I walked away from him so not sure if he left or not but I had to get away from him before I said anything worse.
Thank you to the wonderful folks over at Whisper for anonymously sharing their sales person nightmares with us. We hope this never happens to you again!

16/18. That actually looks pretty on you.

A manager explaind to a person at the photo counter that the Company policy would not allow him to open the customer’s watch to change the batery for him. Irrate, the customer loudly complained “Why not, you sell watches don’t you?” to which the Manager replied “Yes sir, and we also sell toilet paper.”
And condoms, for that matter…
