A hasty and rude retail worker quickly corrected this woman when she pointed out a pricing error on a chef's knife she was interested in. She relented in revealing the mistake to the worker and ended up with a deal on a great knife.
This story was shared to the r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/TIL_eulenspiegel, the woman in the story, where it earned 19k upvotes as of the writing of this post.
When she went to the department store, she was greeted by an "older man" who was extremely helpful. But by the time she had made her selection, he had gone on break and been replaced by a "young rover from another department."
When she approached the counter with her selection, the knife rang up as $40, which she was certain was incorrect. When she attempted to correct the error, the youngster interrupted her. Upon inspection of the label, it was clear to the OP that the knife had been labeled incorrectly. The label described a six-inch sandwich knife when it was clearly an eight-inch chef's knife.
In this case, things worked in u/TIL_eulenspiegel's favor. She gave up on correcting the young man and ended up with a hell of a deal on a knife. Sounds like a win to us!
