Probably the time a customer was standing in, got a call and just sprinted out the door. Full cart still waiting to be paid for, not a word to anyone. It was so bizarre. I still wonder what she could've heard on the phone that made her react like that.

Last week I had a male customer have me help him pick out a shirt. I took him over to the dressing rooms and he started to get changed next to the dressing room. I tried to walk away, and then he asked me to look at him and say his body doesn’t look too bad for someone in their 50s.
I have so many but this one specifically sticks out in my head. I worked in a liquor store. I did the til and stocked shelves. They also had a massive walk in cooler. One night I was closing with the bosses son. I was sweeping as usual and came across a whole uneaten chicken wing. Like the whole drumstick from KFC, slightly tucked under the shelf. Weird. Whatever. Continue on, find an entire, large, peel on, white onion. I scoop them into my dust tray and go to the cooler where the other guy was, chuckling to say dude, look what I found. As he's walking towards me with disgust because he has a USED TAMPON in his dust tray. No wrapper or anything and there was a smear on the ground so this was like taken out and dropped on the spot. What happened and how that evening. I don't know if all three were connected but that was weird. It's been 12 years and we still talk about it when we swap war stories.
I don't even know how to respond to this... `-`

I had a customer who knew me but I didn't remember him at all... Maybe his name was Brian or Jason? And after my shift I realized it was some dude I hooked up with 5 years before...
I was working a desk job as a loan officer.
If you know anything about real estate refinancing, it involves a borrower, an appraiser, title company and the bank lending the money.
The broker, the company I worked for, was the entity that relays everything from open to close.
There's all kinds of borrowers, but one time I actually had an appraiser ditch my sale.
He collected the fee, and did the job but then suddenly stopped communicating with me.
I left him over a dozen messages, and then finally got him on the phone; he just blew up at me and cursed at me.
Uncertain what to do, I went to management and they made the bank aware of the issue.
Then I got a call from a woman who actually advised me to stay off his radar, they reconveyed through another appraiser; it was out of state.
I was still able to close; luckily the borrower was really cool about the delays.
It's actually weird because usually borrowers don't want to lose their house, so I would get told all kinds of things; but to have an appraiser who is a third party to the loan flip out like that, that is really out of the ordinary.
