    What are some of the worst/dumb customers you've ever had to deal with?

    My experience (when I used to work at McDonalds)

    Customer: Can I get a sundae with chocolate on top?

    Me: So you want a fudge sundae ma'am?

    Customer: No, listen. I want a SUNDAE with CHO-CO-LATE on the top please.

    :dead:

    When I worked at public transportation (mostly security) a dude came to me saying 'I missed my train'. I was like yeah sucks dude. It was the last train so he expected us to bring his dumbass home.

    We told him call your family, he said my phone died. You could use ours, 'I don't know my parents number'.

    Call a cab? Don't have money.

    Call a cab and pay when you get home, ask ur parents? Nah they don't have money either

    Holy s---. Then I said wait a few hours till the first train leaves or walk. Have a good night

    Wouldn't even know where to start, got so many from years in customer service.

    Had a guy not too long ago come in late at night and ask me if the elevator is still open at this hour. Uhh yeah man...

    Have people on a very regular basis that can't figure out how to turn the lights on for their car.

    Had someone earlier this week who I had to explain directions to about 5 different times which isn't too crazy for tourists I guess, but the thing is I was just explaining how to walk about 50 feet straight ahead and take the stairs down to the 1st floor.

    f---in customers man. Most are real cool but others you just really have to wonder about at times...

    when i used to work in a grocery store i had a lady return 2 year old chicken that she took out from her freezer and she said it tastes bad.

    had a lady who would scratch off the dates on everything or her items would always be missing the dates, caught her trying to return 5 year old rice once, hated her so much always wanted to call her out on her bs.

    Speaking of s--- like this, I used to work at Costco and they had the most laid back return policy ever and some definitely took advantage of it big time. I don't remember the exact rule but take cookies for example, if it was like a 24 pack of cookies you could eat 12 of them and still return it for a full refund and they had rules like that for everything. You could return a shirt you bought like 6 months ago if you wanted, not even sure you needed the receipt.

    Just can't imagine someone legit being like 'hmmmm ya know after the 11th cookie I realized these are just too stale for me.'

    It was a joke really.

    There was this one guy who brought his car to the garage the other day and he said his car felt like it was driving slow and that the parking brake light kept popping up on the dashboard. So I went in to take a look and showed him that he never pulled down the handbrake. It would have been a real d-ck move to charge him for his visit & car mechanisms can be tricky to understand but Jesus Christ that had me like :SADWAYNE:

    Never worked in retail or anything where I have to deal with customers on a daily basis. I'm way too impatient for that.

    I worked at a Snowcone stand one summer.

    This black lady walks up to the stand and tries to sell me cologne. I then have to say "no soliciting". She then says "Ight, imma get me a snowcone tho". She looked at the menu for a minute or two, then asked "Do y'alls bubble gum flavor taste like the hood bubble gum?".

    Then i say, with the straightest face possible:
    "Ma'am, I don't believe I am qualified to answer that question." :eminem2:
    (Keep in mind I'm a white guy from the suburbs)
