Something tells me you suck at your job
TheJokeWrecker
Just give them the pickle
realwomenfightnaked
I loved working in Israel, customer is always wrong haha
TheGreatBlueHeron
Just a heads up for anyone who wants to be shitty to restaurant employees- you do not want to do that.
Tricksterrr
"Customer is always right" just means that if a customer says beer is too warm or soup too salty, it is and you shouldn't argue.
shark0attack
As a manager, I kindly explain the situation that they're getting upset about and never offer free drinks to them. I trust my employees know
shark0attack
What they're doing and I'll always stand behind them.
WhyCantIStopArguingWithInternetTrolls
As a retail worker, THANKYOU! I love my job, but I do get tired of being treated like human filth cos this is my chosen occupation.
MungoVitoGotHellaCats
What are all these jobs that reward shitty customers? If you start yelling in my store I'm going to tell you to leave.
geetarhumor
Totally agree. But come on. Taco Bell "rep"? Let's call a spade a spade. Treat your cashier same as you would your doctor, or whoever.
geetarhumor
I'm gonna take all the downvotes and say FUCK ALL YOU DOWNVOTERS I AM CORRECT.
Marktower
I own my own business and my saying is "The customer is not always right, brace yourself"
tyrunn
Doesn't happen in the UK, act like a cunt and you can fuck off
Z1ggyStardust
My first job was a very successful small business and they didn't take any shit from customers. I've had employees say fuck you to 1/2
Z1ggyStardust
The customers face because they were acting like assholes and refuse to serve a lot of them. I'd say 9 out of 10 times it was justified
khora
The customer is king. Mad, demented king.
dwolnation
Had a cracked out cunt of a woman pull the this was in the wrong spot so it should be half off BS to me and my manager. 1/2
dwolnation
When we told her no she said she would wait till the SM came in, we told her it's in 4 hours. She said shed wait. She made it 20 minutes 2/2
Thisiscoolshit
I agree somewhat. There are times that employees have straight up awful behavior and treat their customers like shit.
herdingcatsthatarehighoncatnip
I would be happy to be a manager at this company to back up the employees.
sirelurksalot
Sentiment is good, but I'd be concerned if the customer turned violent or seemed like they would come back at night to break in.
TheCalvinintheWoods
"Customer is always right" just means "if someone wants to buy something, let them" not "whatever the customer demands, give it to them"
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Originally yes, now it just means do whatever they want so we don't get bad yelp reviews.
ArdentSlacker
Eh. I treat incoherent negative reviews as a positive. Unless it's for, like, a communication class.
jayemgee
It's simple psychology - you're supposed to reward good behaviour and punish bad behaviour. Not reward bad behaviour.
thebigdnotdallas
Shut up and serve me my god damn tacos!
Tsig
Here's your god damn tacos, I hope you choke on them...and if you do, don't expect me to save you.
GlassLlamaGirl
Not just retail. Students and parents these days, too.
ThisIsSteel
Work for a loan company. My department handles online customer service, we say no all the time. We hold you to what you sign for.
ThisIsSteel
We also will hang up on you if you cuss at us.
splinterh00d
I got tied of it and went to work in a warehouse.
PileOfLooseUnsortedRaptors
this
KarenSalmonsen
Yeah, til you get treated like shit by your managers... or is that just the one I work at?
splinterh00d
Mine are pretty good, mostly.
burningcouchwv
I treat my customers like ladies and gentleman. I normally receive the same in return. If not, I become a huge dick. O-Dick in 3.2s
Thisiscoolshit
I'm the same way with employees. It's basic human behavior. You be a dick? I'll be a dick!
ihateworkingongermancars
I loved my old manager, was super chill and great at what he did, and he wasn't afraid to tell a customer to fuck off
thrain5
The phrase "If you don't calm down I will call the police" should be ground into every manager as a first response.
flyingmidget23
In my experience this phrase tends to make things worse. Threatening often escalates.
ArdentSlacker
You just call the police. You're stuck giving a statement, but they can either control themselves or get shot.

That's actually the next step in America. Speak yell shoot
LetsTalkGameDesign
Recently became a manager at a national repair company, in the call center office. Have enjoyed using "Sir.. I AM the manager" since.
flyingmidget23
Just got promoted last week and enterprise and yes ma'am your speaking with the manager is so satisfying
Keramane
So, just as a fun heads up, join the Hospitality Industry. Hotel staff have the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. 1/2
MissAizea
I can't, I'm in the same industry, but 4 diamond resort/casino/hotel. Nightmare
Keramane
I routinely deny jerkwads hotel rooms if I have a good feeling they're more trouble than they're worth, or are outright asshats.
shutupyourenotmymom
How about The Purge, but all retail employees are allowed to say whatever they want to customers for 24 hours?
Shpielers
How about an actual purge? Lessons would be learned much faster
Mostlydeadpool
can I use really aggressive sign language? perhaps in a fist form?
BigJB
This. I would have a hay day on the idiots calling 911 for stupid shit like a raccoon in their yard or asking for directions to the mall.
FredSlacks
This. I've dreamt about such a day.
SFunke
That's a work day I could look forward to
ChickenFreeChicken
The... Splurge.
Talligan
Reasonable human being here - do people really treat service/retail people like shit?
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Yes.
flyingmidget23
I work at enterprise and get screamed at least 4-5 times a day by some idiotic people
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
As some who worked as a hotel pool boy for like 4 years, very much yes.
Talligan
:( I'm sorry man
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Thanks mate.
Talligan
Wait, were their sexy older ladies seducing you?
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
No, but I got hit on by some younger ones, probably jokingly. The eye candy and occasional wildlife kept it from being too terrible.
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
But there were quite a few major asshats.
