Welcome to Bored Panda, how may I help you? Ah, I see. So, you Pandas work in the food, retail, and services industries and started the week off dealing with some incredibly dense customers. Denser than the core of Planet Earth, you say? Well, don’t worry about it, plenty of us have been there.

In fact, our team has collected a whole bunch of examples of the dumbest things that customers have said and done, to make you feel better. Trust us, you’re not alone in this. Of course, this isn’t to say that all customers are dumb: most are polite and decent. However, a small proportion of them are nightmare material and don’t even know what chicken wings are. And here’s the proof. Grab a soul-healing cup of tea, scroll down, upvote the situations that made you laugh, and share your own retail nightmare scenarios in the comments.

Bored Panda reached out to Save the Student, a British project that advises students on how to make their money go further, about how the pandemic affected the job market and what to do if you feel like you're stuck at a job where you feel demeaned. Jake Butler from Save the Student said: "It does depend on location and other factors, but finding a job during the pandemic, specifically lockdown, has been extremely difficult for students. It's true that some businesses, such as supermarkets and delivery companies, have increased recruitment, but large student employing sectors such as retail and hospitality have really stuttered due to being closed for many months."

    Usually misspellers have heard words but not read them, and mispronouncers have read words but not heard them. This person takes the cake, since she obviously heard the word and mistook its pronunciation for something completely unrelated. Laminate does sound similar to lemonade, but the fine distinction between hard and soft letters (D to T, E to A, I to O) was lost on her. Plus, she was incapable of clarifying what she wanted by describing it, so the process of lamination itself was evidently as unfamiliar to her as the word. Poor thing. Either English is her second language, or the public education system completely failed her.

    It is called 'malapropism' (mistaken use of an incorrect word for a similar-sounding word). Happens to the best of us! Then there is the problem of enunciation. Anyone been to church as a kid and wondered who this "Andy" was that folks were singing about? You know ... "Andy walks with me, Andy talks with me, Andy tells me I am his own.'

    My Step-father used to work in a clothing store in South Philly. One day a guy came in looking for a jacket with an "Alaska bottom". Lots of confusion ensued until the light bulb went off over his head. "Sir, did you want a jacket with elastic around the bottom?" "That's what I said!"

    Being the awesome customer service employee that I am. I would have totally been like oh my goodness I thought it was lemonade too. No worries, I'll get right on it. Sometimes people just need kindness and understanding. Even when they mess up or are acting a bit rude. When you do this more times than not the person's attitude shifts to kindness as well. Just throwing that out there. Don't get me wrong though there are some people this just will not work on. But for the most part it really does. :)

    There is a good chance that after the Client was made aware that he/she was not using the right word, they both laughed...making it an amusing story...not a story to pile on how dumb people can be. Sometimes the glass is actually half-filled.

    We always kept the doors locked until the last second unless it was a regular. Otherwise we would have people ordering soup before we could get it to a safe temp. We were a bar that had mostly subway style food. Yes, people stop in for a beer at 10 am. Retired people and third shift workers. I worked in enough other places with real fire code violations. That's not one to worry about. Same with retail clothing. I'm counting cash, you're not coming in even though you can see me.

    Jake from Save the Student added that while some retail and hospitality jobs are returning, many students are "shunning them as there are worries about job security and also working conditions." According to Jake, one of the main worries that many have is that the market is weighted towards the employers and not the employees.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "For those that feel demeaned in their current job, I would suggest it's worth studying the rights you have as an employee," Jake told Bored Panda what we can all do if we find ourselves being treated less than humanely at our workplace. "Even during the pandemic, there is no excuse for an employer to break the law at your expense. And if you feel you're being treated especially poorly I would suggest looking to switch jobs, but doing so wisely."

    It’s easy to stay professional when the customers who you deal with are nice, pleasant, and see you as a human being. But the challenges start when you come face to face with someone who demeans you, acts overly entitled, or simply asks incredibly dumb questions. All of which makes you question why the nation’s education system has set the bar so low.

    Earlier, I’d spoken about how to deal with difficult customers with Alexander Kjerulf. He’s the founder and Chief Happiness Officer at ‘Woohoo inc.’ and knows a lot about helping keep employees motivated, happy, and using their skills at their best.

    Alex put it very simply that if you feel like you’re forgetting that you’re a human being worthy of humane treatment at your job, then you should seriously consider moving on. “Quit, and find a better place to work, where they actually care about their staff. And quit sooner rather than later. The longer you stay, the more they will grind you down until you lose all the energy and optimism you need to move on and find a better job,” he told Bored Panda.

It works pretty nice on most occasions but sometimes just fails in spectacular ways (today it obviously could not decide if to drink out of a glass or the straw - getting me pretty wet.. everywhere). Is it okay if I apologize here in advance just in case I will ever do this?

    He said that it’s common in restaurants to treat their customers like kings. And some places complement this by treating their employees badly. However, this is far from all right! It shouldn’t be the norm.

    “99% of people are nice, but the occasional rude client is unavoidable," Alex noted that you will have to deal with difficult customers sooner or later. It’s not something that you can avoid forever and ever, no matter how good (or lucky) of an employee you are. "You can learn tricks to deal with them, and that's great, but no one should have to put up with mistreatment."

    You kind of bred people to behave that way with that "the customer is always right" thing. Seriously, the only reasonable response would be to throw her out and issue a ban for behaving like that. That she could even entertain the idea that she would get a latte remade is ridiculous.

    Im sure I cannot be the only person who had a customer complain that their coffee was too hot? I would just put it under the counter and keep working and then call their name again a few minutes later and hand it back. Usually they were quite happy with their cooler coffee.

    I'd have done that too. At Burger King, I had a few customers that wanted plain Whopper Jr's, that's just a burger. They would argue that they are not the same size. I finally stopped trying to explain it to them and just charged them the extra money for their own stupidity.

    I used to work as a batista, and let me tell you that people will walk into absolutely any coffee shop and order Starbucks drinks. The funny part is that almost all Starbucks drinks are not actually what they're named. The first time I handed someone an actual Macchiato I had to stop myself from laughing as they asked for the manager.

    I was eating with my friend at our favourite pizza restaurant when a customer came in and demanded they serve him a "Choo-choo pizza". The owner said they didn't have any pizza on the menu called Choo-choo, but if he told him the ingredients he could make him one. The customer said no; it had to be the Choo-choo pizza. The owner repeated what he had said and asked what to put on the pizza. The customer said what the topping was. I can make a pizza like that, the owner said.The customer said no and repeated that it had to be a Choo-choo pizza and got more and more angry. After arguing a bit more he stormed out, still shouting about the Choo-choo pizza. My friend and I had a laugh together with the owner. Every time after that when we came to the restaurant, he greeted us by saying "Choo-choo?" and we answered "Choo-choo!". It became our secret joke.

    My least favourite thing about visiting America was the tipping culture and how blatant they are about asking for tips. On the San Francisco hop-on-hop-off bus, where you pay a premium for the tickets so you don't pay when you get on or get off, the guides are constantly on the loudspeaker saying "remember, in this country you need to tip!".

    When I go to the States I often forget about tipping. Some of the wait staff get pretty aggressive. It's not "asking" for a tip, it's telling you to. Once I calculated wrong and the guy refused to let me pay, saying the tip was too low. It's more a problem on the East Coast.

    Working in the service industry doesn’t mean that you have to be a doormat, however. If you find yourself constantly being walked over, belittled, and demeaned, you have to reach out to your manager for help. They should be willing to step in and help you deal with anyone who isn’t acting like a human being should.

But the sad truth is that some customers act this way because they’ve learned that it works and will get them discounts or preferential treatment,” Alex said that some customers might be nightmare material by accident while others are very Slytherinish and sneaky.

    I was pregnant with my first child and 2 women discussed if I was pregnant or just fat. Maybe they purposely discussed it loud enough for me to hear, maybe they didn't, but I felt really bad, pregancy hormones and stuff...

    We used to keep chickens and they LOVED grass. They ate their whole pen bare, and they'd go nuts with excitement if you threw in some cuttings. But in food terms, no, there is no such thing as "grass-fed chicken". Corn-fed, yes. Grass, no.

    I’m 60 years old, and can tell you, with certainty, that no business ever let people in before opening time. I can’t emphasize it enough. There has NEVER been a time when people did NOT have to wait OUTSIDE a business for them to open the doors—-at the opening time posted on the front door! Hell, you can watch old movies about people working in department stores and see people waiting outside for them to unlock the doors at the posted opening time. It is most assuredly not a new concept. So this guy cannot use his age and “how we used to do it” as an excuse. Yes, some incidentals have been upgraded, and we do have more options now, but I hate when older people try to con younger people into thinking that basic concepts like that were so much different when they were young. I’ve discovered that they are definitely not, and probably never will be.

My experienced co worker took the bottle, he put it down just out of the view of the customer and right away he gave it back (the same bottle) to the customer, who tasted it at said "that's ok!" and went away. I was there staring at my co-worker, he looked at me, smirked and just said "Drunks..."

    If this bothers you, just say "I'll bring you glasses in a moment". Or just bring the glasses along with the jug of water instead of plates. The customer isn't a mind reader and doesn't know if glasses are usually placed on the table by someone else and you didn't realize that they weren't there... or if you're just bringing tableware out of order.

    Actually experienced the opposite of this once. Friend of mine tried to order a screwdriver was told by the waiter that they don't serve those here. So he asked for an OJ with vodka and the waiter happily wrote that down and delivered. Not sure if they didn't know the name of the drink, herd something else or was somehow offended by the name of the drink and didn't want to serve it.

    I’ve been with people who were like that—-I got it, but they were clueless. I always give the server (or other type of employee, depending on where we are) a very apologetic look, and make sure to give them an extra tip for wing so incredibly patient. Depending on circumstances, I will call the person out for their doubling down on their stupidity with rudeness. I have waited tables or bartender, but have spent years in service, or service-adjacent, jobs and hated people who act like that while I have to smile and be nice to them.

He put his tool bag in her hands and said "If you know so much you f**king do it!" and went outside and had a cigarette. Had us in stitches and his MIL had to go apologize. She decided it would be best to go home after the apology

    My father who was my first boss in a kiosk in a mall, back in the day, used to say, "The customer isn't always right, but they are always the customer." It made a lot of sense and freed me to maintain who I was in each transaction. Essentially, I am the boss and it is up to me to take the high road when the customer is an idiot. And it worked best with humour.

The guy behind the counter replied, "We don't start serving lunch for another half hour. Do you want to order from the breakfast menu?" My friend asked, "Do you take custom breakfast orders?" "Why, of course." "Okay, I'll take two slices of bread, one slice of ham, one slice of cheese, stack them together and griddle the bread on each side until the cheese melts." The look on his face...

    Strangely, that does make sense for a Mexican: In Mexico City, a quesadilla is a folded tortilla with any filling (mushroom, beef, pork, etc.), with or without cheese. For the rest of the country, a quesadilla must have cheese. Even Mexicans can't agree on that, and we invented them!

    This seems to me like an unnecessary food shaming. I totally get the woman. For me (an american, used to tex-mex food) a quesadilla is a large pizza-like thing, two flat tortillas filled with something in between and cut into 8 slices. I eat it by taking one triangular slice at a time. A taco is a single serving, small tortilla filled whatever. I eat it with lifting one small piece at a time. Please do not blame or shame those of use who do not realize that the two are actually the same. Moreover, appreciate those foodies who can taste the difference between no-cheese quesadilla and a soft chicken taco. They are cooked differently, you know.

    we had to close in an emergency. we hadn't had time to fully lock the door, but we pulled the gates over. a guy comes charging in, i panicked and told him we were shut. and he was like 'i know, but i was wondering if you have any jobs going?' 'now is not the time!'

    In Italy we've been through several lockdowns, of different levels of strictness. Basically, by government ordinance, during the red zone stores were closed, during the orange zone, one could only go to a store within their own town, etc. So every once in a while, during the red zone, we got a customer calling on the phone and asking :"are you open?" "No, we're not. We are in a red zone, after all" "Oh right. And when is the red zone gonna change? "I don't know, let me phone the prime minister real quick, he'll tell me...😑

    This reminds me of the time I had to describe a book to the woman who had checked it out because she didn't remember it at all. She called in to complain because she'd received an overdue notice. It was a children's book with a goldfish on the cover. The concept of a goldfish seemed to be so foreign to her. I tried everything I could think of to explain what it was but finally was reduced to something like "it's a fish. A fish that swims in a bowl..." Meanwhile, my boss was laughing her a*$ off!

    Perhaps they imagine "wings" being wings spread out in flight, with feathers, and didn't see anything like that in the shop. It's rather the fleshy parts of the bird's arms.

    The thing that always pisses me off about Wendy's is the double and triple automatically come with cheese. I don't like cheese on by burger so I tell them no cheese and more often than not, there's still cheese on it. I learned a long time ago to not even pull away from the window before checking it.

    Doesn't surprise me and it is not limited to customers. Sometimes the people behind the counter need remedial math. Once I went to an art store to buy watercolor paintbrushes. I found some in a box marked clearance. When the cashier rang them up, he saw they were not ringing at the discount price, which was substantial. A $3 paintbrush on clearance was 88 cents. He applied the discount, and I paid. Because I had bought other items, I didn't realize the discount had applied only to the first brush but not the other two. The woman in Customer Service argued that the brush price was correct and the discount applied only to one, even though all three paintbrushes had the same SKU. I demanded to see the manager. He saw the error but couldn't figure it out the difference with a calculator. He told the woman to void the sale and start over. When she rang it up and applied the discount to each of the paintbrushes, she got angry that she failed to prove me wrong. OMG.

    I had an ex boyfriend who's parents were dumb enough to think that if you made a purchase with your credit card that you only had to make payments up to the cost of the original purchase. They had no idea that if you did not pay the credit card in full every month, the credit card company would charge you interest. With the unpaid interest and late fees, their cards were soon maxed out and in collection. They ended up being thousands of dollars in debt and had to declare bankruptcy forcing the Dad to sell his classic T-bird to pay the creditors.

    I run estate sales and they do this constantly. We open at 8 and at 8:05 someone will ask if we're discounting yet or if they can have it for half price. They also take prices off to see if you'll make it cheaper. I had a lady who took the prices off 4 items and left them on 3 inexpensive items. I made them $2 more than they originally were and she couldn't say s**t b/c then it would be obvious who took the prices off. She decides she doesn't want two of them but she had to pay extra for the 2 she really wanted. Hope she learned her lesson.

    When I worked retail we had this lady come in every single weekend and pick up various items asking if they were on sale and then ask if she could have it for cheaper. As if we were a yard sale and you could bargain. Once in a blue moon she would buy something then when it came time to pay and it was rung up she would argue and say you told her a cheaper price. She would eventually pay then walk out pissed off. She did this every weekend, typically on Saturday’s when we were super busy.

    If this person was talking about an actual camera, like a professional camera, they were probably asking if it had a special feature that allowed it to take selfies, instead of just turning the camera around and snapping, hoping that it didn't look weird because you can't see yourself in the camera. Also, they misspelled "camera".

    I Knew a guy who worked for a company who among other things made steel and brass numbers for people's front doors. He took a call one day from the manager of a hardware store he had sold a consignment of numbers to. There were 100 of each numbers 0 to 9 . The manager of the hardware store was fuming and wanting to know why there were 200 of the number 6 but none of the number 9. My friend had to explain to the manager that there were 100 number 9s and that he was probably holding a number 6 upside down.

    This could be stupid or completely reasonable, depending on what kind of hot and cold chocolate milk you carry. Over here most cold chocolate milks are from a certain populair brand, they come out of a carton or a bottle. A hot chocolate milk is usually hot milk with added coco powder or a block of chocolate, similar to a lollipop, that you stir in. They taste very different

    Actually there is a difference between cold hot chocolate and chocolate milk. Most hot chocolate is made with cocoa. Milk Chocolate is made with chocolate syrup. They are distinctly different in flavor. That's why some restaurants sell frozen hot chocolate.

    Firstly, I would never bother going into Starbucks for coffee....I had one once. But I don't like coffee that's too strong, and find most shops serve very strong brews, so my request is always for a single shot long black, with cold milk added (I don't like hot frothy milk either). You could say I'm a barista's nightmare, I suppose.
