We have three coworkers (#1,2, and 3) in my store who are quitting and, therefore, don’t really care about their jobs.

Customer: Do you guys have sunscreen?

Coworker #1: We only have SPF 15.

Customer: SPF 15 does nothing! Doctors recommend 35 and up!

Coworker: You can go to *store across the park*

Customer: Can I speak with your manager.

Coworker #1: If you can find her *leaves cash to go talk to coworker #2, and 3)

I run over even though I’m not the manager to defuse the situation

Me: I can actually go to *store next door* and get you some!

I run over, fill out a transfer form, and bring the customer SPF 50. She seemed really happy and paid.

My store got a customer complaint the next day because, the customer claimed, it took too long for someone to offer to go next door. Oh great! I understand that Coworker #1 should get a complaint but the whole store got lectured, because she didn’t single out one employee but the whole store, and now supervisors are always over our shoulder for good customer service.

Have you ever served a bad customer who got what they deserved?
