When I was younger, I worked at a grocery store, a few restaurants, and a catering company. So I think I know a little bit about dealing with annoying and downright rude customers.
And if you’ve worked similar jobs, then I’m totally preaching to the choir…but you’re still gonna love these posts about things that customer service workers hate because they are totally accurate and on-point.
What do you say? Are you ready to have some laughs?
Let’s take a look!
1. Enough with the personal info…
WTMI = Way Too Much Information.
Working in retail was wild, people just tell you things about their personal life and you just stand there… Not knowin' how to respond to “I'm going to a funeral” or “I’m getting a divorce” like that sucks… $13.48 is your total.

2. Is that where that belongs?
I don’t think so, people…
3. Please don’t ever do this to anyone…
You might be kicked out of the store and never allowed back in.
4. Sounds like an awesome plan!
Why do people insist on doing this?
Old but gold from Target
5. Don’t touch those things!
And mind your Ps and Qs.
Dear customers, this is what happens when you reach around the shields to help yourself. Please stop. from starbucks
6. That is pretty rude.
Just place it down gently, okay?
7. People can be so clueless.
And wear your mask when you go out in public!
This morning, the young barista woman told me that a customer came in with a mask, but not wearing it. When she asked the customer to put on her mask please, the woman said: "Why? There's no-one in here."

8. Please don’t make me do this.
I can already see you sweating.
9. Math isn’t gonna cut it here.
So don’t make me do it!
Me: opens drawer
Customer: oh wait I have a pennyFirst of all, I don't know how to count

10. Oh, cool, thanks for being so polite.
Be nice! It’s not hard!
Me: Hi, how are you today?
Customer: *says nothing*
Me: Cool, I guess I'll go fuck myself pic.twitter.com/UoNJS5pe91— Breakthrugh (@Breakthrugh_if) August 3, 2017
11. I bet you wish you were outside!
Yeah…that would be nice. But sadly I’m stuck in here dealing with you.
Me:
