Our story begins in a bustling mall, where OP, was a store manager for a popular denim brand. It was an ordinary day until a fateful power outage struck, causing half of the mall to go dark. Little did OP know that this incident would set the stage for a series of encounters that would put their customer service skills and patience to the test.

OP recalls being a store manager for a denim brand in a mall when a power outage occurred, causing half of the mall to lose power:
OP was waiting during the power outage at the store when an impatient customer arrived, expecting special treatment for a quick try-on session with their embarrassed teenage son.
OP shares how they resorted to using the excuses of policy and customer safety to deny the customer’s request, ultimately opting for the excuse of being unable to process their purchase due to lack of visibility.
OP was considering purchasing a new phone and was browsing the options at a cell phone kiosk near their store in the mall. During their conversation with the sales guy, they received a text message from a coworker:
OP turned around and saw the man with his son standing in front of their store.
After a brief interval, OP returns to their store, and the man confronts them by questioning why OP gets to shop while he cannot.
Later on, the man returns to inform OP that he had purchased the store’s products at Macy’s with a 30% discount, and suggesting they should feel ashamed. Responding with an unwavering smile, OP counters by mentioning that Macy’s carries their outlet line, available at a 40% discount online:
OP concludes by reflecting on the satisfaction of not always appeasing the customer.
In an online exchange, a user named “man down” posted a negative comment. OP responds by stating that anyone can be perceived as an asshole depending on the perspective, and humorously questions if the commenter is wearing cargo shorts, hiking shoes, and a Bass Pro Shop t-shirt.
Sometimes, as the saying goes, the customer is not always right. OP’s experiences serve as a reminder that it can be incredibly satisfying to assert oneself and maintain composure in the face of demanding or entitled individuals.
We are sure the guy thought he was very smart:
The guy still overpaid:
