The internet is a strange and beautiful place. This might not make any sense at all, and I really can't figure out the bananas element in this; but hey, at least it all worked out!

When people aren't supporting Amazon and its bid for world domination, they're leaving wacky-ass reviews for stuff like cheese wheels and drums of lube. We're happy to see some weird and creative liberties taken with the site. Also we didn't know you could buy a coffin on there. Apparently there's tons. Kinda creeped us out.
This old lady was so focused on getting her cd that nothing was gonna throw her off. If you thought some yellow tape was gonna stop her, you're in for a surprise. People in retail have to deal with some of the most aggravating people on the planet, so our hats are off to anyone who can keep their composure in situations like these.
"The customer is always right", they said. No, no they're not. Sometimes they are impossibly far from being right. Sometimes they are buried deep in a rabbit's hole of their own stubborn self-encouraged delusion. The following Twitter thread celebrates the times the customers were wrong, and actually forced to confront that fact.
If you're feeling like more customer service content, check out these memes that capture the soul-grinding struggle of working retail, here!
If there's one thing we're always ready for around here, it is more of those ridiculous, intentionally picky, occasionally self-aware (or not at all) Amazon reviews. This particular lot gets 5-stars for keeping things particularly bizarre.
You can feel the frustration in these moments where people had their expectations absolutely shat on. Hopefully none of your potential Black Friday purchases would fit in with this bunch of botched attempts at NOT getting played by online shopping deals.
The fact that there's a community on Reddit dedicated to sharing the living art that is people either giving zero f**ks or being totally oblivious, selling mirrors, fills my icy little heart with joy.
These customers are beyond saving. No amount of customer service can deal with this amount of inconsiderate, occasionally volatile BS. Sometimes the best move when working customer service in Walmart, is to just sit back and let the crazy sh*t work itself out.
These employees possess a heroic kind of patience and tolerance for mindless stupidity and completely irrational bouts of rage. The customers in these situations however, need to make some serious life changes...
Black Friday is THE day for fiery tempers to clash over the most minor matters. Blood-curdling Viking yells are the natural vernacular. Something about crazy discounts and crowded shopping centers is a magnet to the volatile madness that best befits r/publicfreakout. So, stay safe out there; and maybe check these out from the warm and safe confines of your home, where you wisely did all your Black Friday shopping ONLINE.
