This customer wasn't happy about the service she had received or the price she had been charged—especially surprising considering she had been given a discount.

She failed to calculate the fact that the owner might be happy to oblige her preferred method of payment—simply to watch her haul in sacks and sacks of coins to the very inconveniently located store. Huffing and puffing enough to blow a whole house down. She finally managed to finish her malicious compliance, and the owner donated the fruits of her labor to a good cause.
