Because no one likes being yelled at, especially in public. Not everyone is brave enough to call the other person out on it as well.

I would've yelled right back and then laughed when she tried to report me to the manager. If the manager had not yet seen me, I would have left the store so that when the manager comes to investigate there is no one there. The customer would then appear to be insane, shouting "No! I swear he/she was right there!" into the manager's face. Justice has been served, with a side dish of creamy revenge topped with humiliation.

Then people should learn to be assertive nothing better when you're right then to turn the person trying to make you look like a jackass into the biggest jackass of all.

Y U NO CLEAN AISLE 7?! "Peace, muthafooo"

At least they cant fire you OP

If it was by a employ tell them you quit. If its by a costumer tell them you don't work there.

Ya why the **** is this an FML hahaha

#30, Perfect set-up for what you said. I worked at BK, guy comes in screaming about his order being wrong, I tell him we haven't served his particular order on my shift. He yells that it was on the earlier shift and he wants to see the manager. Manager worked the earlier shift and is standing right behind the guy(literally 3 feet from him). Words cannot describe the look on the guy's face when he realizes his mistake and cannot get away with the fraud this time!

Now that's bad customer service!

16 - Now that's bad commenting!

The main reason why people have been doing this lately is probably because it was on some Betty white show. Personally, I'd laugh my ass off rather than write an FML about it ;)

Should have asked for a raise...

And you just stood there and took it? Why didn't you say something back?

OP should've acted like they worked there and yelled back at the person. Then when they get the manager they will just look at OP and be like "they don't work here.." and make the person seem like a moron.

Some customers can be stupid. So much for "the customer is always right."

I agree with 64. I just got yelled at by a customer for not giving them a discount on produce. I'm a cake decorator. Customer's can be morons.

I used to work at a McDonald's. I got yelled at by a moronic lady who demanded a discount on chai, no matter how many times I told her that we didn't have any.

Have. HAVE!!!

The English language is evolving all the time. If people keep saying "should of" instead of "should've" it will become part of the evolution.

Lmao!!!

Why would you stop shipping somewhere because a moronic customer pissed you off? That has absolutely nothing to do with the place of business itself.

I don't see why you were getting down voted, this has indeed happened to me before, I haven't gotten yelled at like the op but I have gotten confused as someone that works in a store, and when people started asking for help finding things and I told them I did not work in the store, they would call the manager or another worker to verify if I was lying or not. it does suck but in the end the person looks like a fool :p

Whoa, people actually ask the manager if you work there? That's crazy!

What?

NO SIR. JUST NO. NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN!!!

10- please go sit in the corner and think about what you've just said.

10- As if the username doesn't give it away, you're just vying for attention. If you're gonna troll, do it right. All you're doing is spouting nonsense.

57- Don't talk to Sean like that. He's one of the few FML legends... But you wouldn't know that.

10 - Is this what's trolling come to these days? In my days it was done subtly.
