Why do the rudest customers always come in when we're about to close for the day and make unreasonable demands? I was getting ready to close my register last night when a man brings an item to check out. I rang it up and he said the price was wrong. He pointed to the clearance rack and said he found it there. He didn't, but we still have to honor that price. Then he went off on me, saying I wasn't doing my job right. Sir, you need to learn some manners.

Never ceases to amaze me how some people act. Always over the most simple things too. I always wonder how they live the rest of their life when they have these kinds of interactions with complete strangers. More people are nice then not, but those bad ones really bring you down!

Right? The nice ones definitely outnumber the bad, but those few really stick with you. It’s tough to shake off sometimes!

Don't forget the customers who come in at closing time and check out using 3 difft gift cards (each having less than $3 available) them pay the remaining balance in exact change from their coin purse.

This seems to always be the case. I honestly feel like its because people who are going to talk to you all crazy and rude are the type of people who don't care if you are about to close or not because they have no respect for other peoples time.

Its the old customer is always right mentality. Although most don't finish it as the customer is always right in matters of taste. It just has created a new level of entitlement and rudeness
