There's a reason I want to work at GameStop. Because if a customer is ever a jerk, I have inspiration.

I am a bagger at a grocery store. One of my jobs is to push carts in from the cart returns. What sucks about it is when customers try to be "helpful" and park the cart mere feet from the end of the row of carts. Half the time its a plastic cart in where the metal ones are supposed to go. Usually I have a bunch of carts with me and its a cramped space in the cart vestibule with a sloped floor, and I have to hold onto my carts I have while manipulating a cart(s) that a customer just left there. So my carts are threaten- ing to roll out the door and I have to go and fix the carts to make them neat. And I have seven carts I just brought in.

It seems that its little old ladies that leave the carts. I say "Come on people, that ain't as "helpful" to me as putting them back in the cart returns. Some customers also seem to suffer from an acute case of laziness when they enter a store.

I think the weirdest customer was an old lady that came in, looking like she was on crack or something, and had bloody fingers...she holds up a coupon for a different sandwich shop, asking for that special. As I begin to tell her (to my utter relief) that the coupon wasn't valid at Subway, my manager pipes up, "We'll match it!". It took her ten minutes to order her damn sandwich.
