Guys, I think this will probably be it for me on this topic. I appreciate all the kind comments and stories and upvotes and whatnot. I just think that Not Always Right has run its course for me. Thanks for all the love!

At movie theater, really drunk guy comes in, points at box of dots, "I'll take a bag of dots." I don't know why but that killed me.

I want to believe these are fake, but having worked in retail, I know they probably aren't.

"pearooster" So... Alfred Hitchrooster? Roosterpit? Are you saying I need to "rooster" my gun before it will fire?

Hey now, you don't know all the facts here. Let's not go off half-roostered!

i don't think the Game Boy story is THAT stupid, it's just out of touch with olden times and in this instance, the customer isn't stupid
FlyingRock
I think the good point about that story is the customer realized they done goofed.

I think they thought it was like one of those little game toys where the batteries never die and when they do you're fucked.

It's all funny until you remember these people can vote.

Well, they can certainly try to; whether or not their attempt will be successful is something else entirely.

Its funny until you remember they probably have children, and they will most likely grow up like their parents.

Over my 18 years i have never experienced one of these types of idiots. Im worried that it is going to all catch up to me. Pray for me

To be fair, most people see this experience for their first time in the service industry. For me, I was 16, at my first job.

My second day as a grocery bagger some crazy guy started telling me conspiracy theories, the cashier snuck off and let me deal with him, ass

Oh, it will, don't you worry. It'll catch up to you, service industry or not. Idiots are everywhere, and they're out to make you miserable.

Worked at wal-mart for 3 weeks worst mistake of my life. The biggest idiot was a wonan who came in with an ad for cans of cat food (1/?)
Tallguy9583
The cat food was normally 46 cents a can and with price match it was 45 cents. At wal-mart to price match we have to enter a code (1/?)

I worked in customer service for about 3 years and I dealt with these people daily. They always want a manager too.

Running your own business you work 80 hour weeks for no money and get taken for granted. But telling people like that to get lost? Worth it.

WHY would someone be working at a ski resort during the summer?
ImgurnariumOfDoctorGiraffus
Mountain Resorts should favorably just be called Ski Resorts in the colder seasons, but natural retreats/outdoor activities are year round.

Not in the middle of summer.

I lived on a mountain that had a ski resort. There was a golf course, go karts, water park, etc for the summer

That sounds awesome. where is this?

IAmDrBanner
Maybe it is just a place that offers ski when it is season and other services when it isn't. Like a normal resort or hotel.

My IQ lowered by ten points just from reading these.
Robocloud
Can an IQ lower? I didn't know it could do that. An IQ is from what I know how well you are able to learn, not how smart you are.
ImJustHereSoIDontGetFined
Take comfort in knowing that many are probably made up, grossly exaggerated, and/or the result of mental illness rather than stupidity.

I've had a few minor experiences similar to some of these, but the worst I had was someone made because we wouldn't give him a 3rd floor, >>

I definitely would have been spanked too if I broke a toy in anger. And I can totally picture my dad making that joke before doing it.

Military father, I'd have been broken in anger...

My dad refers to all my handheld gaming devices as Gameboy, even though I only play with the DS and 3DS now.

Well they are still in the gameboy line
somerandomgeochick
I'm guessing its a gameboy advance sp, the version that has a hinge
eichermacher
Or, y'know, a 3DS. The new one?
anzolr
It's possible given lots of people think all handheld systems are gameboys.
JustPraiseGaben
TBH, I call my 3DS a Gameboy sometimes. Nintendo handheld = Gameboy, I guess. :p

Has to be advanced SP TO 3DS to come with rechargeable batteries.
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
Really? My parents would never in the world spank me, not even a little hit. If my father would, my mother would divorce him immediatly.

What the fuck. Why did you get downvoted for that?

I have no idea! Because they think I'm bragging? I just always thought spanking is wrong and no one should ever do that to a kid.

Corrodias
Yes, really.
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
May I ask why? Genuine curiosity. I want to understand why a parent spanks kids for something like this :)
Corrodias
1) Well, I haven't studied this, so I'm going to have to go out on a limb. But I'd say it's unpleasant, it's an assertion of your authority
Corrodias
2) that they can't simply ignore (like "stand in the corner"), it does no physical harm beyond maybe a couple of hours. As for psychological
Corrodias
3) effects, I really don't know. Have there been any studies? I know several people who I think turned out very well. They're not violent.
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
3) this and I just take it away. Then, I'd let him keep the money for his own, of course, I won't ever ask him to really pay me back for it.
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
1) Okay, I understand. But I'd rather make my kid understand why this is an issue. I'd tell him to pay me back for half of the gameboy, as
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
2) my mother would do. Then, if I see he tried hard to get some money to pay me back, I'd ask him if he likes it that he tried hard to get
MusculusSternocleidomastoideus
4) I think this way he can truly understand why I'm mad. I'd rather talk to my kid. But, other opinions of course! Whatever works for you :)
