The number of FB comments I saw that appeared to be real people and not trolls that commented how the aggrieved was a whiny baby honestly upset me. Like... it’s hundreds of pounds of hosed up pennies. That’s awful! And it happened in part because the owner didn’t want to pay the guy’s last check, so the guy had to bring the courts into it. I hope the owner’s stupid rear end gets fined waaaaaaay more.

courts and other businesses often tell people making "protest payments" like this to go away. conversely, they can also turn the tables and tell them that they will accept it if they sit there for 3 hours while they count every coin

Inceltown posted:lmao, you've never worked customer service. Oh I have done my time in the retail mines, just have never ran into someone that far up their own rear end. Guess I should be thankful for that. Granted I did stocking overnight so that's probably why I didn't run into many Karens and Kyles on the evenings and weekends.

Or someone living in 1982 like I said. Even if it were a boomer I'd expect them to at least mention facebook if this were written any time in the last decade.

I've never been able to find the images again, but someone once posted cards which a customer handed to them with stuff like "I am the customer, you will refer to me as sir." "I don't have to say 'please' because I am the customer. You, however, will say 'thank you' because I am the reason you have a job" "It's not 'no problem' it's your job" and a bunch of horrible boomer brained poo poo like that.

This reminds me of some ill-conceived post from years ago, likely on Reddit, about how to buy a car like a boss!! It involved emailing all the local dealerships an elaborate questionnaire that would take each dealer hours to complete to pull reports, take custom photos, provide the dealers invoice price, and on and on. If you have never bought a car, the post might seem like a great plan. Putting the onus on the dealers to win your business? Brilliant! The only problem is that in reality, salesmen at a dealership don't want to waste time on people that aren't likely to actually pull the trigger on a purchase. Even if you try to call or email in a single specific question about a car, they probably won't bother giving an answer and will instead try to get you to come in person. It's annoying if you just want to confirm a detail, but if you aren't willing to come by in person, you probably aren't that close to pulling the trigger. It is a wild blind spot where people cannot see things from the businesses perspective. If a dealership that isn't extremely desperate for sales gets some burdensome questionnaire (that is also going to every other dealership in town), they have no reason to believe this person will result in an actual purchase so why waste hours investing in some random high maintenance jabroni? Toss the questionnaire in the trash, or maybe share it with your coworkers for a laugh. Someone else that is actually ready to spend money will probably come by so save your time and resources for them. People that unironically believe that "the customer is always right" is a reasonable statement and good advice for businesses to follow must never have had to deal with the public. Real boomer brain thinking that business and more specifically people in customer service roles should bend over backwards to win the business of some random pain in the rear end. Even if you are willing to spend money, if you are a hassle to deal with, why should anyone bother with you if there are others ready to spend the same money and not require a bunch of time and resources to play to their ego?

"The customer is always right" was probably always intended as "just give the fucker his discount, it's not worth your time to argue, even if he's obnoxious and wrong" more than anything.

Yeah I'm sure it comes from an era when it just meant "don't argue with them if they wanna buy a stupid thing, they're still buying poo poo". Then it wormed its way into white middle-aged impotent boomer brains as some kind of divine right of total control over staff.
