The Couponator 44: The Clapback
I am a manager. We have a regular customer who has always given the cashiers a hard time. One day after one of my cashiers completes the transaction, this customer pulls out a coupon.
Customer: “I want the cash instead of this coupon, and don’t even think of telling me you can’t do it because I know your manager can, so be a helpful little worker and fetch them, will you?”
I am already next to this checkout lane, so I come over. I am trying to assist this customer with my fake customer service smile when she says something that makes me stop and question what I just heard.
Me: “Excuse me, but what did you just say?”
Customer: *Repeating* “I said I had better get what I want. You don’t want me to act like a donkey in here, do you?”
Me: “You already are.”
She never said another word, and I don’t remember ever having to deal with her again.
