Today, I was yelled at by a customer because I wouldn't give her a new iPhone 5 for free to replace her broken Nokia, which she threw out the window in "blind rage". I felt awful having to thank her for calling. Sadly, this is a daily event. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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
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 stood in line for one hour to get a new phone. It then took me 2 minutes to drop it and shatter the screen, and 2 seconds for the employee to look at, laugh, and tell me, "That Sucks." FML
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. FML
Today, after calling the insurance plan for my new iPhone a "huge waste of money", I promptly dropped it in the store while trying to put it into my pocket, cracking the screen. FML
Today, while walking to work, I accidentally dropped my $400 cell phone on the sidewalk. The screen shattered into a million pieces. A woman passing by looked at the ruined phone and said, "Now that's what you call a dropped call!" She laughed and kept walking. FML
Today, I sold my old iPhone 14… or at least I tried. I met the customer and she said, “Gee thanks!” and walked away with it. When I asked for the money, she said, “Suck my dick!” and took off running. I'm too out of shape to catch her and phoneless until I can come up with the remaining $200 to pay for my new iPhone. FML
Today, my history teacher confiscated my iPhone. She dropped it on the way back to her desk, and I now have a shattered iPhone screen to fix. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm confused... Why would she need a new phone? Her Nokia should be fine...

C'mon man, this is what you're paid to do. You need to develop a thicker skin so her yelling at you means nothing. And be able to laugh at the craziness of people like her.

The customer told the warranty person she broke it on purpose. Idiot!

Wait... A broken Nokia? Something doesn't add up here.

Just do what I used to do. Mute the call and laugh your ass off at her sheer stupidity. That is until the day I forgot to hit mute. Oops.

"the customer is always right" is one of the worst phrases to be coined..

I'm in that same business. Everyone expects a free handout. It's pathetic.

Seriously - it's Verizon. With a "z". And all cell companies get customers like this that think they are owed a new phone for any reason. We replace with the same model - or else it would be an upgrade with a fee/contract extension.

SHE BROKE A NOKIA?! She deserves the iphone if she can do that.

Blame Apple Inc. This is what you get when they replace celebrities' iPhones for free when after throw theirs out of the window in rage.
