Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. 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 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
Today, I got yelled at by a customer for saving them money. FML
Today, a customer asked a question I couldn’t answer. I asked if she would wait while I consulted someone else, but she spat in my face and stormed off. My manager saw, wrote me up for refusing to help, and gave the woman a gift card for her troubles. FML
Today, at work, a woman screamed at me and called me a bitch because I refused to refund something we give away for free. FML
Today, I got yelled at by a customer while working at a bank call center. He was furious I apologized for a mistake that someone else had made. I again apologized for apologizing. FML
Today, while at the mall, a lady dropped her credit card while in line to buy something. I came over, picked it up and gave it to her just for her to shove it in my hand and scream, "She's stealing my wallet! My wallet!" The police came. 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, 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

How DARE you save that credit card for the person it belongs to rather than give it to some random person! For shame!

But see this is what happens when you do the right thing. You totally should've given her the card it's so horrible you didn't

Yea, Walmart has 400 billion a year from fraudulent sales ? Or maybe that's an ethnic slur against the bulk of Anericans

There is a huge difference between ethnicity and nationality.

So? If you are this bothered by what a complete stranger has to say then you need to harden up a little bit.

Don't feel you did the right thing.

Imagine if that customer tried sending a complaint to OP's boss.

Well... the customer's story might go like this: "After taking my elderly mom home from an exhausting but much needed clothes shopping trip, she noticed she left one of her credit card at a store. So I went back and found it at the third store we visited, but didn't get it back as my name wasn't on the card. Guess I'll have to take my mom out of her rocking chair just to fetch that piece of plastic."

Offer to call the police so they can arrest her for attempted identity theft

One time we found a CC in front of the registers, and since we hadn't had many customers in a while I went up to the last person to pay and asked if his name was [name on card]. He looked absolutely terrified I knew his full name, and very hesitantly confirmed, which immediately turned to gratitude when I showed him how I knew. Sorry it wasn't as easy for you as it was for me.

Was it her husbands, boyfriends or friends card? How did she know you found it?
