Generally, I like to think the best of people and believe in humanity. But there are just those instances when people cannot suppress their mean side, especially when they're dealing with customer service. I have had some experience handling customers over the phone, so I know the struggles and the stress of dealing with irate customers and customers from every walk of life with whatever concern or inquiry they might have. But these eight experiences from retail staff, particularly at clothing stores, are probably some of the meanest and rudest I have read.
Personally, I understand what retail staff and customer service employees go through, so I try to be the most pleasant and agreeable customer I can be despite whatever issue I might have with the service or whatever mood I may have at the time. Those people have feelings too, and they're just trying to do the best they can at their job. And it's just the right thing to do, to not be an entitled customer and get along with all sorts of people.
