The Not Always Right 2024 Mid-Year Retrospective: 24 Top-Voted Stories
Dear readers,
Now we’ve reached the halfway point of the year it’s time to look back at our reader’s favorite Not Always Right stories, as sorted by votes. For 2024 we’ve rounded up the 24 highest-voted bad customer stories of the year so far. We think the stories found here are rather reflective of the crazy year we’ve had so far (aren’t they all these days?) and we hope you can look back and laugh at these crazy tales like we do!
When The Cars Align, But So Do The Stars – Coincidences happen, and can sometimes become opportunities for sweet payback!
If You Want The Nice Change, You Have To Have A Nice Change – When managers have figured out how to give jerk customers back the same energy they give out…
Getting That “Last Day” Energy – When it’s someone’s last day in retail and they have run out of f***s to give, it’s always going to be a good time…
If You Act Like Trash, You Become The Trash – Don’t treat waitstaff with disrespect and expect respect in return…
Thinking Outside The (Empty) Box – Don’t you just love being able to call out a customer’s BS to their face?
I Want The Cheeseburger With Extra BLT-LGBTQ – Funny how it’s always the homophobes who scream and squeal the most.
Racism Never Adds Up – The next generation denouncing the bigotry of the previous one is always wonderful to see.
Grandma’s Happiness Has Gone To The Dogs – When a customer is miserable then we should all be miserable, right?
Sharon Will Probably Text From Now On… – We hope Sharon’s pus stopped… eventually.
A Threat To Their Very Existence – We don’t believe in bigotry and yet sadly there are still bigots…
Leg Room Is Nice, But Karma’s Even Better – Do these people not understand what a full flight means?
Maybe That’s On The Secret Menu? – When the manager has a spine and sass to match!
Mischief Managed – If they can’t line up on the way in then they’ll be happy to know there’s no line for the way out.
If You Don’t Get Hint, Boris Bounce You! – Would it be an annual NAR top-voted list without mention of a Boris?
Signs Of Influence, Part 3 – Isn’t it amazing when a jerk customer realizes they have no power with their complaining?
Putting The “Wait” Into “Waitstaff” – If the customer is not present then neither should you be!
Their Bigotry And Attitude Are A Sinking Ship – Some people throw so much negativity into the universe it’s inevitable that it’ll manifest back at them in satisfying ways!
Dine, Dash, And That Other D Word – This story was published on the last day of June and still made the cut. We think you’ll see why!
How To Hack A Christian Hack – How to “blue-screen” the little brains of hate-filled people!
That Manager’s Response Was Pure Platinum – This is how you systematically destroy elite entitlement!
Bigotry Printed In Black And White – Proof this world still has a looooong way to go.
When You Become The Very Thing You Swore To Destroy – This may be petty, but it’s sooooo satisfying!
A Cartful Of Karma – Be a jerk, face consequences. Beautifully simple!
