Customer came into my store for a poster and attempted to demand that I stop a $400 print job to print his singular poster and my coworker explained to him unfortunately we cannot stop the project as the customer was here first, and he got rude with my coworker and me being on my lunch break went up and said if you cannot treat our employees with respect we will ask him to leave and not come back I also explained I will remove him by force if I have to normally I wouldn't say that.c

Great job stepping in. Employees are still humans with feelings. You are amazing keep defending what’s right

We need to normalise this. We need to empower EVERYONE to "fire" customers the first time they step that far out of line. I will normally let them rant until the first f-bomb, then inform them that we do not tolerate that language in a family environment, and this is their only warning. Rarely do I have to follow through and ask them to leave after the 2nd f-bomb.

Good on you for stepping up. Nobody should have to tolerate disrespect, especially when you’re just trying to do your job. Sometimes you’ve gotta set boundaries firmly — people only learn that way.

Good for you !!! There are so many people, guests, customer's etc... who are so self- entitled and demanding and so completely rude and disrespectful Company'snow a days have so much fearof a disgruntledcustomer it literallymakes them weak and employees and associates. Pay the price of being subjected to crass human manners. I for one don't allow anyone to be disrespectful to me.. i match energywith energy ( not to say that's always a goodthing . .. believe me 🙄🙄🙄) People have to know that they just can't go around treating people ( especially people in the service industry's like shit !!!!).

He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
