Retail Sucks
Any of you guys work in retail. For some reason today I have had the dumbest customers. I can feel my self getting dumber and dumber by the minute.
I just had a customer looking at a down alternative pillow and he says "down alternative? what does that mean?"...... What does that mean? are you freakin serious. I don't think the name of it can be any more clear than that.
Post up some stupid or funny customer stories

Yeah, I was a Regional manager for a large chain for 10 years and customers that were too stupid for employees are managers to handle were bumped up to me. You have to wonder how some of these people get through life.

Retail pharmacy intern here, deal with stupid people daily. Yesterday a woman comes to get her prescription and I tell her, "that will be $3.06." She responds, "I'm too lazy to walk up the hill. I have two dollars." wtf? Spent a minute explaining how 2 dollars was not enough, and never figured out what "too lazy to walk up the hill" meant. Still love my job though... I think it takes a special personality to work retail.

Any of you guys work in retail. I work for Select Comfort in the mall near my house. It's a pretty chill and laid back job. For some reason today I have had the dumbest customers. I can feel my self getting dumber and dumber by the minute.

How about a thread on the crappy customer service from cocky sales associates?
