shopping

"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. 

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some of these seem more than reasonable and thoughtful, but what's great to one person, might be absolute garbage to another. 

This is why you pay attention to feedback on eBay.

This TIFU story is definitely not the cashier's fault. There's no way they could have seen through their customer's smooth talking, especially being a new employee. I hope they didn't get punished for this! 

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. 

Learn from this man's painful mistake so that you don't repeat the process....

Their fails are what keep us going!

These people are living their absolute best lives... No one can say that they aren't shining examples of certain parts of mankind's abject failure to evolve from Neolithic times. And nothing is better than continuing to find out just how wacky Walmart can be. But clearly something is driving these people to dress like they've been on a month-long bender. Maybe these memes will be the missing link between the rest of humanity and these anomalies

A thrift shop employee took it upon themselves to spice up the merchandise. It's reminiscent of some hilarious antiques roadshow alternate captions that can be found here.

Discontinue your behavior if you're doing any of these.
