Unfiltered Story #151741
(A coworker and I are working, and work is rather slow. We work in a very popular retail store but are vendors inside the store, we don’t know much about the store’s products or the mall it’s in. As we are waiting for customers to come in, we see an elderly woman frantically walking around and approaches us.)
Elderly woman: WHERE IS THE HOLOCAUST EXHIBIT?! I AM NOT GOING TO ASK F***ING FIVE MORE TIMES!!
Coworker: I’m sorry, what?
Me: I don’t know of any exhibit, ma’am.
Elderly woman: WHERE IS THE LOWER LEVEL OF THE MALL?! WHERE IS IT? I’M TIRED OF ASKING!
Me: Ma’am, you’re on it.
(My coworker can’t hold in her laugh and this just makes the elderly woman start walking away..)
Elderly woman: WHY DON’T YOU KNOW WHERE IT IS?! USE YOUR EYES NEXT TIME! YOU SHOULD GET YOUR EYES CHECKED!
Coworker: …Have a good day!
(We both were wearing glasses. Later we found out she had in fact come in already frantic and yelling at everyone she saw. I still don’t know if there was in fact a holocaust exhibit or not.)
