Customer: "Hi, where are you keeping the things that were held after the checkout lanes crashed?"
Me: "Those are all over at the service desk, ma’am. They’ll be able to help you there."
Customer: *Shrugs. "Okay."

I'm working my register when my coworker one lane over, waves a hand to the line, her eyes flicking to a specific item in a customer’s cart:
Coworker: "I can help who’s nuts!"
notalwaysright_feedRead That’s A Grande Load Of Nonsense
Customer: "Grande quad, extra-dry cappuccino with almond milk, half a pump of hazelnut, half a pump of mocha, extra cinnamon powder steamed into the milk, topped with cold foam but only if you can blend it with coconut milk, not regular milk, and can you put the espresso shots in a separate cup so I can pour them myself?"

Mom: "Would you like to explain why I found condoms in your room?!"

Woman: "Go get your god-d*** dog before someone hits it!"
Me: "I don’t have a dog. I reported seeing a dog, though. Is that what you mean?"
Woman: "He needs to be contained. Why would you just let him run around town? What if he bites a child?"
notalwaysright_feedRead The Kind Of Help This Customer Needs Is Not The Kind You Can Provide
A customer is standing at an empty desk in another department, about forty to fifty feet away from us. Instead of walking over to us, he starts shouting:
Customer: "HELP!"
He does this over and over, while staring at us.

notalwaysright_feedRead Even Getting Inside Is Laborious
A few weeks later, contractions again, we drove up again, and they wanted to send us home again. My wife was adamant that this was for real, and we were not going anywhere. They were saying we could go and stay in a hotel (this was 10 PM).

Everyone realized: Mom was just trying to sneak her kids onto the ride together. They slipped into the pre-ride movie area ahead of us, and nobody alerted staff. All of us in the single rider line were fuming and bonding over her audacity.
notalwaysright_feedI’m at the child psychologists getting tested for a learning disability (It turned out I needed glasses and did not have dyslexia as originally suspected). The psychologist is asking me questions. “Do you ever get teased by the other children?” “Not often. Sometimes” I replied “Is it about your chin?” I made a confused noise […]
notalwaysright_feedRead Is This Your First Time In A Store?
Me: "Was there a sign that said it was 50% off?"
Customer: "Yes!"
Me: "Did you see it just now? The store had a sale over the weekend, but that sale ended yesterday."
Customer: "Well, I saw it yesterday."
notalwaysright_feedWhen I worked in the food service industry, there was this lady. MY WORD she loved cabbage. I’m convinced that her taste buds may have been damaged during COVID-19. I would call her “Cabbage Lady” as she would order a regular plate with chicken and rice. So far, so good. Then she would custom order […]
notalwaysright_feedI live with my grandparents while I’m going to college. We have a landline that is unfortunately inundated with scam calls. Thankfully, my grandparents are still sharp, even at their age. I was home alone as my grandparents were off on an errand when the landline rang. The following conversation happened after I picked up. […]

Caller: "But I mailed it."

I'm working checkout. The customer has a small girl in the buggy, staring at me with this look on her face like she likes SOMETHING about me. She finally says to her mother:
Girl: "Mama... what she, what she name?"
notalwaysright_feedRead Email Fail, Part 53

I'm at the self-checkout area in a 24/7 grocery store. I see a hand-written note next to the screen of my card-only register:
Note: "Dear customers, when there is a sign on self-checkout that says no cash, throwing money at the screen does not change it."
notalwaysright_feedRead Nothing Worse Than Customers Who Spend Nothing, But Take Offense
I volunteer in a small rural village charity shop, in the middle of England. There’s a regular elderly lady who pops in once or twice a week, usually to complain about the weather, then about our prices, then leaves empty-handed.
