It’s All In The Delivery, Part 3
I used to work as a supervisor in the customer service department of a supermarket in a well-off suburb in Melbourne. The store was on the corner of two streets, so our loading and delivery bay was on the side of the store, on the less busy street, rather than at the back of the store as is common.
We had many obnoxious, rich regular customers. The least favourite customer of the entire department was this guy.
Me: “Hi, [Customer], how can I help you today?”
Customer: “Close your d*** delivery door. It’s absolutely disgusting. Customers shouldn’t have to see that.”
Me: “Oh, sorry about that. We must be getting a delivery; I’m sure they will leave soon.”
Customer: “That’s unacceptable. I already said customers shouldn’t have to see that. That’s ridiculous. Customers should never see that. You shouldn’t ever open that door!”
Me: “The delivery bay door?”
Customer: “Obviously, the delivery bay door. I’ve already told you that.”
Me: “So, let me confirm. You would like for me to make them stop opening the delivery bay doors.”
Customer: “Finally!”
Me: “Okay, great, and how exactly do you propose that we get any products into the store to be able to sell them to you?”
Customer: “F*** off, smart-a**!” *Storms out of the store*
