Unfiltered Story #152399
So, there’s a regular that comes into my bakery. I started her nickname “crazy woman” because she always goes on random rants about anything & everything. One day our registers were short on small bills & I had the luxury on waiting on her.
Me: Is there anything else I can get for you?
Customer: No, that will be all.
Me: That’ll be 9$
Customer goes through her wallet. I noticed she had a five dollar bill & some singles. She hands me a 20$ bill.
Me: Is it okay if you pay with the smaller bills instead?
Customer: Oh, sure, that’s fine.
She hands over the small bills & I complete the transaction.
Me: Would you like your receipt?
Customer: No, but actually I need those bills back.
Me: I apologize, but I already closed the register.
Customer: Well open it!
Me: I can’t without a transaction.
Customer: This is an outrage! I’m a regular customer here & I deserve to be treated with more respect. Jesus wouldn’t condone this.
Me: Ma’am, just let me go get my assistant manager.
I walk away completely confused on the sudden bi-polar behavior. She later said she needed the money for her grand children’s lunch or something like that.
