Customer Slur-vice
(I am working as a cashier in a well-known thrift store. One day, the manager flops into a sofa and starts loudly mocking the customers using racial slurs, even though the store is full of paying customers.)
Coworker: *to my manager* “You’d better watch out. Some customers are right behind you.”
Manager: “Nah, they don’t know English, so they don’t know what I’m saying.”
Customer: “Excuse me? I understood perfectly what you were saying and it was disgusting! Rest assured, I’m going to complain and hopefully get you fired! You are a very bad man!” *storms out*
Manager: “Why? What did I do?!”
(One by one, the other customers leave, giving dirty looks to him. I throw down my apron and leave for good too. He got fired soon after that, I’ve heard.)
