Retail Ridiculousness

For those of you who need a laugh, here’s a great story from work the other night. 

As a manager I handle returns and exchanges, so I was called to the front of the store to help this older gentleman, about 60 years old. We head over the the counter and he slams down his half empty gallon of milk and tells me it’s sour… The expiration date is May 31, so not even close. By this time there is another lady behind him needing a return done also. 

Guy: This is sour. I want my money back. 

Me: Okay, the expiration date says May 31st. It doesn’t look like this would be expired. 

Guy: Well it is. 

Me: Okay, can I see your receipt?

Guy: Why would I keep a receipt for milk? Your receipts are so long. (Turns to the lady behind him) Would you keep your receipt?

Lady: Yes. I keep all my receipts. 

Guy: Well I don’t. 

Me: I can’t return this without a receipt. Especially since it’s half empty. 

Guy: Do you want me to dump this milk all over your floor?

Me: Um. No. 

Guy: Then return the milk.

Me: I can’t do that.

So the guy grabs the milk, opens it, and walks out of the store with the carton upside down.
