Today, I told a customer that we don't do refunds. He responded by throwing his wallet at my face and accusing me of stealing it. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got yelled at by a customer for refusing to give a found credit card to a woman it didn't belong to. FML
Today, I had a customer throw his purchase at me and demand a refund after I told him that, due to the national change shortage, I couldn't give him his 38 cents. FML
Today, when I told a gentleman that, no, he couldn't have cash back on his return without a receipt, he started screaming at me that I was calling his mother a liar. He told me to lawyer up and yelled at me for smiling at him. He also screamed at me to go on a diet as he left the store. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me so furiously that she sprayed my face with spittle. I had to stand there, smiling and politely explaining that I needed to see a receipt before I could give her a refund. When she finally gave up and left, my boss bitched me out for "provoking the customer". FML
Today, a customer handed me a 100 dollar bill. He then told me that it was my tip for doing a good job. He snatched it away just as I touched it, laughed, and said, "Just kidding." He then took his money and left the store. FML
Today, at work, I had a customer accuse me of taking the giftcard I had issued her for her return, after spending 15 minutes trying to fix her screwed up transaction. She began to yell, and follow me around the store. Security had to intervene and I had to be locked in an office until she left. FML
Today, I had gone to the store and bought a new wallet. 5 minutes later a security guard asks for my receipt. Turns out I had dropped my receipt. Some guy had picked it up and pretended I had stole his wallet. The guard confiscated my wallet because the guy had "his" receipt to prove it. FML
Today, at work, a customer asked for my number. When I declined, he made a huge scene, shouting and scaring other customers. He tipped me seven cents. FML
Today, I got yelled at by a customer for saving them money. FML
Today, I was chewed out by a lady who claimed the laptop she bought wouldn't turn on, and that she wanted a refund. She yelled and shoved the laptop at me, not even listening when I told her I didn't even work at that store. FML

Press charges. Then you will be the cause of his well deserved anal rape as well.

Meeting his assault with force is futile. Here's what you do: Curl up on the floor in a tight fetal (foetal) position around his wallet and wail inconsolably about having to enforce an unjust policy, but you need the job, blah, blah, blah, all while cleaning the cash out of the wallet. After the customer flees the store in shame and terror, drop the wallet in a nearby mailbox and let the postal service deal with it.

Shame and terror? How does that work?

Have you seen a grown man having a meltdown? And being the one who caused it? It's pretty mortifying! I know the OP didn't reveal his or her age or gender, but grown man is the funniest to me :)

Throw is back at him and tell him to get the **** out. If he does anything other than leaving call the cops and have him escorted to a jail cell.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't notice that completely walking away from An angry customer was a good idea.

If your shop has CCTV this shouldn't cause you any problems.
