Rant #59302047 about entitled <PERSON> incoming
Yknow I try to let shit like this go, and just let it be like water off a duck’s back. But man I hate rude people. Especially ones that talk shit about one of my favorite coworkers (who btw is awesome at their job).
So this lady comes in today wanting to return a can of tinted paint that she bought ages ago, because it did not match her wall, right? Well our store policy is that we can’t return tinted paint, so they (my coworker) were trying to explain that to Ms <PERSON> over here, but she was not having any of it. They offer to redo it for her if she brings in a small sample of the right color that she wants, but that she would have to get the sample of the color somehow, the best way being from a small sample of paint off of her wall.
This bitch then proceeds to complain & argue with him, saying how “ridiculous” it was to ask her to obtain a small sample of the paint color she wanted. (Saying such lovely things, such as “I’m not taking a freaking chip of paint off of my wall!! This is ridiculous! How do you make that mistake?). 329
(Like? Ok girl, we’re not asking you to punch a hole in your wall, goddamn!) She also says the classic <PERSON> line we all know & love: “I want to speak to a manager”.
I apologize & tell her we’re going to do what we can to sort her situation out. I then ask my coworker if they can grab our store manager, as I knew at that point I would not be allowed to just do the return myself, and I wanted to know what the best course of action at that point would be.
As coworker is on their way to get our manager, Ms <PERSON> then talks shit about them to me, calling them an idiot & carrying on & on complaining.
Now I understand the frustration of not getting the exact color match that you wanted the first time, & I understand wanting the issue to be fixed. But had you simply explained the situation nicely instead of throwing a bitch fit, we wouldn’t have had any second thoughts about getting our manager & asking her how to handle the situation.
This bitch also then proceeds to get rude & aggressive with our freaking store manager once she comes out too!! Like really? We’re going out of our way, getting a higher-up who’s just trying to help you, and you’re gonna be rude to her too?! Give me a fucking break. Also if you think I’m gonna join in on you talking shit about my work homie like that, you are severely mistaken. Get help or some therapy asap pls.
The whole <PERSON> thing is a widely known meme at this point, you’d think these people would know about it by now & maybe reconsider acting like petulant divas towards retail workers, at the very least out of not wanting to be made fun of & humiliated, but apparently not.
We ended up giving her the money back for the paint & she fucked off thankfully, but MAN, that could’ve easily been avoided.
TL;DR : crazy bitch gets rude with coworker, me, AND the store manager over a can of paint. 329
