40 Of The Dumbest Clients That Customer Service Workers Remember
Working in customer service means dealing with a wide range of people every day. Unfortunately, not all of them are pleasant. Many carry the “customer is always right” mentality, which can lead to some truly outrageous behaviour.

#21 Lady Goes To Self Checkout, Makes Attendant Unload Her Cart, Scan And Bag Each Item
Image source: snownative86
At the grocery store, we crossed paths with the lady in white shopping and loading her cart. We go to check out, and she is there, making the self-checkout attendant unload her cart, scan, and bag each item. Then she had the attendant place the bags in her cart. Note that she had way more items than you should for self-checkout, and a recommendation was made by the employee that she consider going to the standard checkout, which had nobody in line, and she refused. Poor attendant had to stop every so often to go to every other self-checkout and do overrides and I’d checks. The customer was perfectly capable of doing all this herself.

I was a manager for Taco Bell last year, and we accidentally put red sauce on someone’s bean burrito (they asked for no red sauce), so he punched the drive-through window in, shattered the front door, and smeared his food on all the lobby windows.
