Scratch That Customer Complaint
I work in a deli in a grocery store. A customer comes up to the sub counter and orders two unusual subs: baloney and provolone. But that’s not the weird part of the story.
Coworker: “All right, I can make those subs for you.”
Customer: “Actually, can you get the other person to do it?”
That other person is me. My coworker is taken aback by this but agrees. As I’m making the subs:
Customer: “How would you like it if I scratched my a** and make you a sandwich?”
Me: “I’m sorry?”
Customer: “Because that’s what [Coworker] did.”
This time, I am taken aback. I was watching [Coworker] the entire time and not once did I see her do that. Rather than argue, I apologized and finished her order. When I spoke to [Coworker] about it, she was slightly embarrassed but swore she never did so. We never saw that customer again.
