Making An Extra-Clean Getaway

I’m working customer service in a grocery store when a man approaches me.

Customer: “I just spent $300 on groceries, because someone poured bleach on my last batch of food in the trunk of my car while putting it in there for me!”

He stood there for three minutes telling me to hit the cash button and let him leave. He followed me when I left to get a manager so he could complain about how I wouldn’t accommodate him and was “clearly lying” because I estimated his total rather than reciting it exactly.

He gathered three managers in short order and then left with the whole cart, looking smug.

I still don’t believe him, but management is so afraid of complaints.
