CAGiversary!
As a person who has worked in retail and food I've had some pretty evil customers. I'm sure there's got to be some good stories out there.
Who's had to put up with an evil customer besides me?

I worked in an assitsted living home were the old women wanted to sleep with me, does that count?
 
When I used to cashier at Best Buy, there was once this guy that came in that smelled like he hadn't showered in weeks. The smell was so bad I thought I was gonna be sick.
 
i had to put up with an evil checker today, refused me to use my raincheck said the price was wrong and they could only give it to me at the sale price, not the percent.

I don't know if that is so much as evil as it is nasty. Just plain nasty. Unless they were hot.
 
I used to work in a meat department and some guy brought back some pork chops he said were bad. I pointed to the date on the package and noted that they expired three days ago. I told him that since it was his fault he bought them and let them expire, we couldn't give him his money back.
Well, he began to swear at me and then took out the pork chops and threw them at me, one at a time. I got hit by 2 of the 3 pork chops, laughed, and told him to have a good day.
Looking back, I should have thrown him in the meat grinder and made meatloaf.
 
I worked at blockbuster, everytime a I told a person they had a late fee they became an evil customer

Holy shit, that's fucked up.
 
I use to work various cashier jobs in the nice part of town with a shaved head/blade and piercings. I got abused left and right by rich bastards and stuck up high school kids every day. Does that count?
 
I used to run and get a manager to deal with the situation. Now, I'm the manager. A lady today complained that the hot water in the lady's room was too hot. Apparently, it never occured to her to turn the cold water on.

That's just one of a million stories I've got.
 
I work at CC and I had a customer refuse to give his zip code ( zip code!!!!) on a purchase. He started cussing and getting really loud. I am the type to give it right back and not take any $h!t from rude customers (with restraint, of course, I have to keep my job). Anyway, the guy ended up giving his zip code (it's a freakin' ZIP CODE, MAN!). On his way out he was walking by a tall stack of shopping baskets and shoved them over; however, they were in a metal frame, tilted over about 45 degrees and stood right back up! I just started laughing right there. He stormed out of there yelling and cussing. On top of all this, he had his son, maybe 10 years old, with him. What a tool.

That's funny and fucked up at the same time. If I were you, I would've definitely made sure he saw me laughing when the baskets didn't fall.
 
[quote name='BigNick']I give 90210 as my zip code.[/quote]

I actually have heard that once. It caught me off guard and cracked me up. :D
 
I had a drunk come in and want to return paint. Thing was half the paint was gone because he dumped it on himself. He had paint all over his pants. I told him we couldn't return it, and he started screaming at me telling me he was going to kick my ass. I basically laughed in his face because I was behind the counter and he couldn't have reached me anyway. So eventually he gave up and walked out, fell down in the parking lot, got in his truck, and drove off. So I took down his license plate # and called the cops so they could get him for DUI.

Oh, he saw and heard me. My manager was standing right there and he couldn'r even help but laugh. :D
 
I've had several cases where clients whose business IT needs I cover bring me their home systems for repair or rebuild. Since the problen is so often evil software or stupid configurations forced on the machine by the kids I often have to spend more time looking at their hard drive then they might wish from a relative stranger. Especially if the file system is so screwed up it requires a lot of direct touching to get it all backed prior to wiping it out for a new install.

All too often I've faced the quandry of finding items on the drive that are illegal in of themselves or are of use solely for the commission of crimes. Chid porn. credit card numeric series cracking tools, etc. If a 15 year old kids is using up half the drive with Asia Carrera movies, I don't care. When it's stuff that would put my paying customer in jail, I have to say something.

In one case, after seeing the evidence, the parent was so pissed off at the kid, who apparently grew up in a gated community but had joining the Crips as his life's ambition, that he told me to keep the computer and do whatever I wanted with it. He didn't care since he had a company provided laptop for his own minimal needs. The PC was such old and of a brand I disliked so I just formatted the drive and dropped it off at the school district's IT office. THey have a deal with Microsoft that lets them throw Windows on donated hardware nearly for free.

ive had some stupid people come into the shop and ask me we accept mastercard. im like yes we do, it is listed on the entrance and right here on the counter. she says"oh so you dont accept it?" then a lady came in with a bag of stuff from the CAFE' and asked if we could return it. i told her i couldnt accept it but ill have it. i took the styrafoam container things and threw them in the garbage. this lady had been asking on prices all day and i was getting sick of it. when she sat in the chair by the counter and fell ASLEEP i started screaming like cartman at her. she finally left after the smackdown she got from me.


I WORK AT A DAMN FISHING/GIFT SHOP FOR CHRISTS SAKE!!!!!!!! but thats what you get when you live in the only town in the US that lets you LEGALLY walk around drunk and with open liquor/beer or whatever. drunk people all the time.


i even had one old guy believing that it was 2043 and i was a slave robot, screamed then ran out of the shop while im laughing....................hmmmm i wonder why my parents dont want me working much?????
 
oh and this guy called me a lazy bastard one time when i was really busy. i was getting his minows for him and he says"lazy bastard" im like you retard what did you say? se said"you heard me lazy jackass" im like im really busy right now, dont start shit w/ me. then he called me a lazy cock sucker.............i took his minnow bucket and threw it on the concrete busting it, the water and the minnows out. i stomped on all the minnows and their guts squirted out all over the concrete. then i said "how bout you eat em lazy bastard cocksucker" and he left.

yep i hate retail.
 
i've never really had an "evil" customer, but i have a crap load of stories about stupid customers.

one of my favorites is when this guy asks how long we hold things for, to which i replied "48 hours". he then asked me how long that was, to which i answered "2 days". then he says, and i kid you not: "oh, well i wasn't sure, i'm from canada."

Similar story, our store is doing a guarantee on some of our expensive steaks as a promotion, if theres something wrong with it, you get your money back, AND another steak, free. This woman comes in and complains that the steaks she bought were too fatty, and that she wanted her money back and new steaks free. We asked for the old steaks, and she hands us the fat that she had cut off, with a reciept. She ate the steaks.

Another woman tried to return some meatballs that she had cooked with our meat, because they had been in her fridge for a week and went bad. Now, we try not to laugh people out of the store, since we do get a fair number of retarded people, so we politely told this person we couldn't. The first person was clearly not retarded and clearly an asshole, so we told her to screw.

Then theres the people that intentionally try to hurt themselves at the store so they can sue (slip and fall, etc). One person won, but that was our fault anyway since a radiator was leaking and the floor was wet.
 
An old man cancelled his bank account because of me.

His account was frozen due to hundreds of days of inactivity and to reopen it he had to update his signature card. I highlight the areas he needs to complete and he comes back with just his name on it. Then he threw a fit when I told him he needed to fill out the areas I've indicated in order to reactivate his account. He snarled at me as he left the building. By the end of the week he closed his account with the tellers and walked out with a few bucks in hand.
 
never really had an evil customer,but we have this guy that comes in our store like everyday (stays almost 3/4's of the day) and he NEVER showers, he was kicked out of the mall and target for grabbing women's asses, and he likes the only 3 girls that work at our store. i think he might be bi, because he is always asking if my manager is there and like hanging around him the whole day that he is working.
