Christmas Is Hell

(I am a manager at a store where everything is $5 and under, making it perfect for buying cheap Christmas presents. About 15 minutes after we close a customer starts banging on the doors. Since she won’t stop, I decide to go to the door and tell her we are closed.)

Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, we’re closed for the night.”

Customer: “I only need to buy one thing.”

Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, but all for the registers are closed for the night.”

Customer: “So you can’t just let me in to buy one item?”

Me: “I’m sorry, but I can’t.”

Customer: *now yelling* “You’re ruining my child’s Christmas. Are you at least open tomorrow?”

Me: “No, I’m sorry, but we are closed tomorrow for Christmas.”

Customer: “This is ridiculous. You’re going to h*** for this!”
