Retail Employees Talk About Most Annoying Things Customers Did

Take a job in retail if you want to find out how much nonsense you can stand. You will have many reasons to sigh and roll your eyes, from demanding and lengthy shifts to poor management. But the people who cause the most anger and frustration are probably the customers.

It’s Called Etiquette

I worked at Starbucks in my early-mid 20’s, whenever a customer “tossed” their credit card at me on the counter, I would run it and then “toss” it right back at them.

When they hit me with the must be free line I just hit them with the this is America, nothings free line. Brings us both right back to the middle.

Target Employees Hate When You Think Your Tiny Car Can Fit The Biggest TV On Planet Earth
