Today, I was at work as a cashier. An old lady unbagged everything I had, and angrily "taught" me how to bag. She put potatoes on her eggs and broke them. She then screamed that I was useless and retarded in front of all my other customers and manager. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was at work, stocking shelves. A customer got mad because I was in the way of her "shopping time" and knocked down all the work I had done. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me because I gave her a wrinkled bag. I work in retail, and the bags are all cheap plastic. She wouldn't stop, even when I gave her three different bags. FML
Today, while bagging my groceries at a store, a lady came over to me, took a good look at the food I'd bought, picked out an item and put it in her bag. When I confronted her, she called security on me and told them I wanted to steal her stuff. I got thrown out and she walked away with a smirk. FML
Today, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? 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 got yelled, screamed, and cursed at by a customer until I was reduced to tears. This was all because I double-checked to make sure she wanted large fries. FML
Today, while buying paint, I began to help an elderly woman working to lift some heavy boxes. She told me what a nice young lady I was. Then her boss came over, screamed at her for being lazy and fired her. She cried. So did I. FML
Today, my manager cussed me out for being unable to keep a customer happy. That "customer" was a senile old twit who had wandered away from his carer, thought our shop was his living room, and demanded to know who replaced all his furniture. FML
Today, I was waiting in line while a lady paid for her shopping, when her credit card got declined. She started ranting and insulting everyone and kept insisting: "I'm not poor!" By the time the lady had finally stormed off, I had spittle on my face, and the cashier was almost in tears. FML
Today, I assisted my first customer at my first job as a Target cashier. When I rang up this lady's items and gave her the total, not only did she hiss at me and spit in my face, but she also dragged my manager over and demanded that he fire me. He did. FML

Yup. Happens to everyone. I had a woman who wanted double paper IN double plastic, and she wanted her items in increments of five and each bag to weigh no more than three pounds. She undid my work, and ended up trying to put cans and milk (in an increment in five) into one bag then complained how it was too heavy. I believe I walked away in that instance.

Sounds like she had a disorder. It's not her fault.

Old ladies can be such angry little twats. They give no damn about holding up lines or humiliating the youth at their already humiliating jobs. Your life sucks.

I used to work at a liquor store and this guy started literally yelling at me cause I wasn't going fast enough. So he starts grabbing that many wine bottles out of my hand and boxing them himself. As I was going to put the last, very expensive bottle in the box he snatched it from me and dropped it. Then yells at me even more. Saying it was my fault. I almost quit that day.

Some old people are so grouchy. And old man once yelled at me because I gave him the bill part of his change first and then the coins. Called me stupid for not doing it the other way around

I'm hoping she had to pay for the eggs and wasn't granted a replacement carton...or if she received a replacement I hope they're contaminated with salmonella ;)
