Today, I got called a cunt at work by a customer. What could I have said that could have caused them to say that? "Have a great day." FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, a customer berated me and told me to stop whining because I have to work on the weekend. What did I do to deserve this? I said, "Hi, how are you doing today?" FML
Today, I had to serve an incredibly rude and irrationally angry customer, but I managed to keep my cool. When he finally went to leave with his purchase, I wished him a good day. He whirled around and yelled, "I'll have whatever the fuck kind of day I want, bitch!" FML
Today, I was ringing up a woman at work. I saw she'd bought a birthday cake, so I smiled and said I hoped whoever it was for has a happy birthday. She looked at me in disgust, told me to mind my own business, then called me a "chucklefuck bitch." Okay then. FML
Today, my boss came around to my way of thinking. He called our customers a "bunch of assholes" and to kick them out if they gave me trouble. When a lady began yelling at me for "setting the damn prices too high" I told her to leave. My boss soon bitched me out for being unprofessional. FML
Today, I got told off at work for not saying hello to someone in the corridor.. FML
Today, I assisted a customer at work. She was asking me all sorts of stupid questions and acting like an entitled, spoiled brat. When she left, since I had a mask on, I meant to mouth, "Stupid bitch" but I blurted it out loud. Everyone heard. I was fired. FML
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. FML
Today, at work, I spent half an hour on the phone with a customer. At the end of the conversation, as he was putting down the phone, I heard him say 'God, he was a miserable git'. I'm a 28 year old woman. FML
Today, I answered a call at work from a very irate gentleman. After being shouted and sworn at profusely, I ended the call in a slightly less than civil manner. Turns out that guy is one of our company's biggest clients. FML
Today, at work, we had an extremely rude customer who started cussing at us, and my coworker started cussing back. I jumped on the register to quickly bring down the line, and apologized to everyone for the scene. A secret shopper was in the line and claimed that I was rude. I got written up. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

He's probably pissed for since you didn't say have a great life or something Edit: I have no idea why this is a reply to 1

Any time anyone says "let it go" anymore it makes me want to puke.
TheKingKen 22
It doesn't matter. If you're having a bad day, you don't drag people with you. Talk to your family and/or your friends about your problem like a civilized human being and not be a douche.

#13 isn't that an over reaction?

68 - because im sureeeee that she is litterly going to puke over it...

72, somewhere there's a Grammar Nazi bawling inconsolably over what you have done to that poor word.
Respect101 17
#72 I'm not a grammar Nazi, but the fact that you put litterly, instead of, literately, just makes me think of cat litter. Haha.

how is that dragging her down? all he did was call her a ****. she can hardly take it personally. I would've just laughed
Queenie2014 11
**** is a very offensive word.
HanBroman 20
I don't understand how a word like that can be offensive. If he called her fat or ugly then she could take it personally, but **** is generally a comment on someone's personality or nature and he doesn't know anything about her so she can't take it personally
sweetbliss3 37
84 it makes me laugh that you didn't like his spelling of "litterly," and spelled it wrong with" literately." it's literally.

13- Aw, why? Thats an amazing song.

It's okay, #13; let it go

He probably thought you were being sarcastic!
MrConcise 35
Maybe he was Australian. I get called **** by my Aussie pal all the time, and apparently it's normal to call friends that over there. Either we're really close, or I'm really bad at reading social cues.
happylappy 21
Or maybe he as Tourette's.
slyde32 12
@55 yes it is normal here in Australia to call our mates *****, but we call people we don't know "mate"
kuzzy00 22
That's the same as New Zealand. "****" is for our best friends. If I said it to a stranger, it would be highly offensive. I interpreted this FML as OP saying it sarcastically. I reckon OP deserved it as there's more to this story than we are told.
aimzskee 30
I was fully just going to post something similar about how we speak to our mates in NewZealand
HanBroman 20
It's not highly offensive. you can't take something a stranger says personally. I guess it could be a shock if you weren't used to hearing the word but as an Australian, I'd probably just laugh

Your not the boss of me...

It's like the delivery guy from Drake and Josh "Thanks, have a good day!" "Don't tell me what to do."

#24 I was just thinking about that. :D

Even if the customer had a bad day or had something on their mind, it does not give them am excuse to call you something so vulgar.
zevo1415 10
He just said ****...not all that vulgar
noisyboy4000 23
**** is actually one of the most vulgar words you could call somebody, especially a woman
jtthegr8 26
Actually it really isn't. The word has been acceptable since Shakespeare used it in his theater plays. Granted that it still is an insult, I agree with that.
brand125 17
57 - it is vulgar depending on where you live, although there is much worse
MrDonSalvetti 27
Wow grumpy cat is one of your customer? :O
SMHsohard 22
Grumpy Cat wouldn't stoop to using such a vulgar word.
