I thought the customer was always right. Its there money and they can spend it where and when ever they want, which is there right. Stop and think of all the bad press your stores get when these same people start spreading the word about a store to all of their friend and neighbors and then these people start passing the word on and adding to it.

Naw...dats ode skool.
Today business people say the customer is NOT always right. Because some customers you just don't want. The purpose is to cut out the vocal 1% that cause more problems then they're worth.

Quote | Its there money and they can spend it where and when ever they want, which is there right. | A nitpick before my point: the pronoun to indicate the money of the customer and the right of the customer: THEIR. "There" indicates direction or location.
Anyway. While I agree that the customer who has money to spend has the right to spend their money when and where they desire, I also advocate that I have the right as a worker to get considerate treatment from customers. Just because someone's working in a lower-wage position or in a "lowly" industry like food service doesn't mean that the customer has the right to treat him or her like crap.
If there's a genuinely bad experience with the service or business, then yeah, the customer has a right to complain (like if you go to a restaurant with a popular burger special and have to wait two and a half hours for a burger with a group of 8 people). However, if you're going to lord over your server, cashier, or fitting-room attendant because you're having a bad day... or because you have the money... or just because they're in the job that they're in... then no, you're not in the right as a customer.

One time, I was atop a 25 ft ladder putting up a display and this little old lady starts bumping into it intentionally with her cart to get my attention....oh yeah, it worked I was shaking by the time I climbed down. Other customers noticing it started to gather around as did a manager. I managed to ask her what the problem was and she nonchalantly replied that she didn't like the smell of the popcorn nearby. At that point, the store manager escorted her away from me and the nearby customers applauded him for doing so. Needless to say I took an unscheduled break. PEOPLE ARE NUTS!!!!

No, it just sounds like you live in Albert Lea. Albert Lea is truley an inbred and strange place to an outsider. I've been both so I have an objective view. AL is a rare exception,,,a strange place with odd customs.

Was this the same old lady GEO was following around the mall this week, trying to get a whiff?

Agree 100% kid.
I have always thought Albert Lea, city of 18,000, gossips, noses around & nitpicks like a small town of 1800. You wouldn't think in a town of 18,000 everyone would know everything about everyone else, nor would they care, but they sure do in Albert Lea.
