Bread Thieves Are The Ones To Sue YOU
(I am on my second shift at a popular bakery and am just beginning to handle customers by myself. A woman walks in with two children:)
Me: “Hi! How are you?”
Customer: *ignoring me* “I’ll have three white loaves, sliced, two coffee scrolls, three Mediterranean pizzas, a croissant, a custard scroll, and six dinner rolls.”
Me: *totally overwhelmed* “How would you like the loaves sliced, ma’am? Thin or thick?”
Customer: *looking at me incuriously* “Does it look like it matters?”
(I slice them thick because most people choose this option.)
Me: “Sorry, that was three Mediterranean pizzas and a croissant?”
Customer: “Yes! And two coffee scrolls, a custard scroll, and six dinner rolls!”
Me: *after processing this huge order* “That comes to $36.50.”
Customer: “What!? That isn’t right! I came in last month and got the same for $20!”
Me: “Sorry, ma’am, the loaves and rolls combo promotion ended last week.”
Customer: “That’s ridiculous!” *grabs bag of bread and tries to stalk out of the store*
Me: “Ma’am, you haven’t paid for that bread!”
(As she tries to leave the bakery via the sliding glass doors, she quite literally walks into the door, pretty hard, too.)
Customer: “I’M SUING FOR THIS!”
(The other customers and I were trying not to laugh. We did get sued a small amount for the door incident but it was totally worth it to see her fall over!)
