When I worked retail, I had some really awful customers. One time, early on in time at the workplace, a caller who I'd never dealt with before asked me to check on a special order of his that was at the back of the store. On the way to check it, I was briefly delayed by other customers, and then I actually had to check his order status, but it wasn't that long... (you can guess where this is going.)

Me: Thanks for holding! Your special order is--
Him: That took forever! How rude you were to make me wait so long!
Me: Oh, I--
Him: Do you know how long I've been a customer of [workplace]?!
Me: No, I just--
Him: I think you should thank me for my patronage.
(uncomfortable silence)
Me: Thank you for your patronage?
Him: That's better. You should learn some manners.

I managed to get through the rest of the call, and then I cried after I hung up. It was so pointlessly mean.

Speaking of pointlessly mean, one of my co-workers (technically almost a manager of mine, but not yet when this took place) once yelled at me, in public, in front of customers, because he thought that I had invaded his space too much--in the public space behind the counters that we all shared when we worked the registers. I was so stunned that I couldn't reply, and then I went and found one of the real managers and cried on her shoulder. Co-worker was later disciplined, but not fired and hated on me quietly but mercilessly after that, even going as far as to turn one other co-worker against me. God, he was a dick to work with--super pretentious and egotistical, and unpredictable besides. I honestly thought he was going to start hitting me as he yelled.

Needless to say, I do not miss this job at all.
