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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Working in retail sucks
Today, a customer yelled at me because we didn't have any laptops in stock. I work at a clothing store. 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 for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. 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
Retail work sucks
Today, a very rude older woman came in wanting to buy her first laptop. After a full hour showing her laptops and all the stuff you can do with them, she decided she didn’t want one. As a bonus, she told my manager, “He’s not very good at his job, is he?” Walk toward the light, you grave-dodging old bag. FML
Today, at work, a woman demanded a refund for a video game. She had no receipt, so due to company policy, I couldn't refund her. She reacted by loudly accusing me of being racist, then yelled that she'd see me in court as she finally stormed out. FML
Pennies From Heaven
Today, I bought some shoes, but pissed off the lady working at the store by returning them 5 minutes later. She yelled at me and ripped my receipt in half, everyone in the store watched as she threw a handful of pennies at my face. FML
Go away, lady!
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, while working at a cell phone store, I helped an older woman learn how to use her newly updated phone. After trying to help her for over 20 minutes, she threatened to throw her phone at my head. FML

Just be like " imma be back in a minute to fix it" and just leave with it. It's a win- win.

Should've taken it and had it fixed yourself
AnonymousFunFMLs 18
Yeah because this guy probably knows how to fix a computer... I think if he "fixed" the computer for the lady he would probably get in real trouble.
blancoing 14
but if she just gave it to him and walked away she wouldn't know who he was. so how could anyone track him down?
AnonymousFunFMLs 18
Oops... Pretend I said girl
garrett_8614 14
I bet there wasn't even anything wrong with the laptop. She was probably just stupid
incoherentrmblr 22
Sounds like that Virgin Mobile commercial about getting the IPhone w/ $30 unlimited everything...

Still a free laptop
titoski 5
that's a stupid thing to say
IceCreamm_fml 14
Lol, just take the laptop.
gennyv 29
I think they meant that op should've taken the computer, gone to somebody who could fix it, and then keep it for themselves

You shouldn't have felt the need to exlain yourself. Just walk away. It's not like you'll be fired from a place you don't work at.

Clearly she couldn't just "take it". The woman wanted a refund.
scuccria 12
#50 ikr. The OP seems like a gentleman. If most of the people I know would've been there, they would have yelled the shit outta her in return.
Rectov 10
Like she was pressing the enter key to turn it on or some shit

Just be sure you get her to give you the receipt first.

Not if the lady's complaining that it won't turn on.
inn0centaphid 19
Take it and ask for a refund at the store
DrownedMyFish 18
Wouldn't a refund require proof that she purchased it from there?
ironichalibut 24
Yeah, but obviously before they "fix" it for her, they'll need the receipt.

"MY LAPTOP WONT WORK" "Laptop and receipt?" *gives them* "Thanks" THEN WALK AWAY LIKE A BOSS
masturdad 11
But didn't she say it won't turn on? What's the point of a broken laptop?

10 and 68, if the lady thought OP worked at the store she would've given them the receipt, had OP asked

That was horrible #24
cakefete2 31
Yea, that pun really bytes.
TiiBags 15
He must have overclocked his memory. ..
91hayek 31
This pun is just on the line of almost being bad. But it doesn't. That's why its so good; probably the best I've seen in a while.

Solid state drive your fist into her head.
lizard365 12

JKPwnage 27
Should have* -_-
ladybugz23 13
I agree!!
goodwithoutgods 20
You should have asked her if she wanted to see your manager, then take her to another employee and explain to them that she needs help. Problem solved!
BeardedVulture 6
Should've kept it

"Shut the **** up woman! Calm your ****! I don't even work here!"

Hey, free laptop!

Customers can be both dumbasses and bastards. One time a customer yelled at me for a good ten minutes because there were Oreo pieces in the brownie of her Oreo Brownie Earthquake. She threatened to sue. -_-
Damned_Architect 25
Really? You should submit that as an FML!
slyde32 12
I've never heard of an oreo brownie earthquake, now I feel cheated and sad that I'll probably never try one
