Then I must be the Devil. Recently, I've been working in a local video store. It's pretty sweet, getting free rentals, flexible hours, and nice pay. But the real highlight? The customers. Those of you who have worked in retail will identify with me, that customers are, on the whole, fucking idiots. So, it's fun to jerk them around a bit. This was my favorite conversation to date.
Me: Hi, can I help you?
Customer: Uh, ya, I'm renting this video.
Me: Girls gone wild, huh? You're aware that this is an 18 plus movie, right?
Customer: Ya, I'm aware. I'm 18.
Interjection: Sure, and I'm the Pope. Still, I devise a devious plan.
Me: Sorry about that. It's just that you don't look...
Customer: Huh? Just cuz I'm short, right? I otta sue yo ass!
Interjection: I wonder if there's room for bodies in the back.
Me: O.K, I'll just need your phone number and name.
Customer: 905-123-4567, and the names Jeremy Owens.
Interjection: Jeremy Owens? The son of my old English teacher? As I remember, Mr. Owens was somewhat... puritanical.
Me: Thank you. (picks up phone). Hello? Mr. Owens? It's the video store calling. I have your son here, who seems to be 18. (pause) What? You only have one? And he's fourteen? Anyways, he wants to rent Girls Gone Wild, and since he's eighteen, I can't stop him, but since I smell cannabis on him
Interjection: I don't, but I'm having fun
Me: I just thought that I would ask you, since you are probably in a better state of mind. Uh-huh. O.K. (hangs up phone)
Me: Apparently, Mr. Owens has just cancelled your membership here. He wants you home right away. I hope you two can settle this like adults.
Customer: SHIT!
Conclusion: It was mean and un-called for, I know, but still...

ratemachine, what gives you the slightest right to say that this isn't true? hypothetically, let's say it isn't. You know what changes? nothing. including your being a dumbass.
a non-counting +2 for me.

Hell yeah, bash those customers because Joe Public really is as dumb as he appears to be! Says one who has worked with them for far, far too long...!

I admit, this was a strong first post, but it's more fun to bash noobs than it is to suck noob cock.
Stick around kid.

as a note, the reason i did that was because i used to be like that kid. With things like that came lying, drinking, drugs, and alot of other things. By doing that, not only did i have fun, but i hope i scared him away from things like fake i.d's. That shit messes up your life.

hah. You must not work at Blockbuster - I never met a BB clerk that would think more than once about checking out a bazooka to a seven year old.
