'She was livid from the moment she walked in': 15+ Crazy customer chronicles told by retail workers

Retail workers could tell you a story or two about their most memorable customers. As a cashier, you may serve hundreds of people each day, so when someone throws a huge fit or is especially impolite, it sticks with you.

Whether you're working in a clothing store or a popular spot in the mall or a fast food restaurant, you're bound to get some odd customers. Usually, customers ask the same few questions over and over. But there are exceptions. For example, one person shared that they had a customer come to buy a suit, and he was in luck, because the suits were priced as a buy-one-get-one-free offer. The customer thought that was a good deal, but he wanted to see the "free suit" first. The retail worker was confused, and explained to him that it wasn't just a free suit, he had to buy two, and then one would be discounted. This customer just couldn't get the concept through his head!

You can check out these great stories from retail workers who revealed the craziest and dumbest things customers have ever said to them. And after that, read about the "Lawn Karen" who was infuriated that her landscapers hadn't removed every single leaf from her property.
