    Wait why was the first story on entitled people?? That's just a story of how 1) you handle having a store screw up epically with your order (from customer's perspective) and 2) how your store epically screwing up a customer's order should be handled. OP was using methods they teach you first thing in group communications to defuse and handle with conflict. Funny how the methods actually work.
    ....Meanwhile the corn story is how they would have given us an example of how not to treat people with conflict. I don't mean the OB, I mean the OP. Damn. Never asking for anything from the back again.

      Here is my take on this story. (What I suspect is the untold portion of it.)
      The reason the website had the customer call and not place the order is because the shoes she wanted weren't in stock. Even in the warehouse. This in reinforced by the mix match shoes and the inability to get the shoes from any store in the area. This also why the customer didn't get a notification about delivery to the store. Because the company didn't have them to ship.
      As to why the shoes were wrong color and even a pair were mix matched ... this is what happens when shoes are returned to the store. Smaller sizes are put on display and at some point the boxes got mixed up. The shoes were returned to the store, the store returned them to the warehouse, and the warehouse just put them back in circulation not realizing that there were two shoes of the wrong size. Same goes for the wrong colors. Odds are what the box says and what the shoes are are two different things and this mix up was the result of the shoes being returned and sent back to the warehouse. Same result just different issue.
      Further, this was probably either a high demand shoe or it was a store exclusive and they only had so many pairs. And no, even though I think the store reordered the shoes for the customer, I don't think the customer was going to receive them. It will fall under the same category as the initial order the customer had placed over the phone. It is no different than when Nike does a new limited addition shoe and you either get the order confirmation the first few hours the shoe is available for purchase or you simply aren't getting the shoes as they are no longer available. I've seen shoes sale out in less time than it takes a AAA music group to sale out a coliseum performance.
      I do find it a bit surprising that the customer didn't offer a order number for the staff to look up. This would have quickly resolved the status of the order and shown that it was on backorder with no shipment date defined. Even if on backorder, the customer would have received an email notifying her of this.

    This is even better story from working security for a major food distribution company. I have worked with many people and was known to be good at my job, and was trusted to do patrols around the property and relieve people for brakes as there was two post. I was well known in the warehouse on my patrols and recorded issues that I had observed. I worked the end of the week on the night shift, so we had many personal replacements and support staff that did overtime. I had to work with women, that had multiple issues with drivers and other staff. It was well known that if she had issues where she was in the wrong, she would accuse people of harassment. So on the first time I worked with her, I went on my scheduled patrol after informing her, and writing on the log the time I left and that I informed her about the patrol. Long story short, 5minutes after I left she called my boss that I took off without saying anything and have been gone for 20 minutes. Our boss asked her to read the log, not just for that day but each day I worked for the last month and ask her if she believes I did that she might be mistaken. My boss said she quickly apologized and said that it was busy when I left and she forgot. I was told this before going back as to note what she would say when I get there. Of course when I get there I was told by her to call our boss. I did, and my boss told me to walk away from the gate. We checked times on the cameras with my patrol logs, confirming every location. Leaving her to handle the gate all during this. He then told me to take over the gate and called the gate to talk to her. As no surprise to me she was asked to relieve the other gates guard as they will be taking over working the truck gate for her. At this point she started to take off, and then returned to write on the log that she’s relieving the other guard. From what I heard from the other guard, she was taking over so she can talk to HR about me in the morning. Completely painting out that i was a pain to work with, and I made rude remarks. The other guard didn’t say anything to the facts that I worked with them many times before and couldn’t believe I could ever be like that.. Only question they had of me was why switch, since they hardly work the gate and that they aren’t trained on the computers. I told them I have no answer, but I won’t be going over there to relieve her for brakes. She called up for a break and the other guard did so. 1 1/2 later he came back. He apologized for being late but she took off from the property. Came back with coffees and then had to go to the bathroom.
    The night ended with my boss called me over to the front gate, with the other guard.unknown to everyone but me, my boss was on site the whole night and said He had my back, with laptop in hand. He said to hold back in front lobby with the other guard as they went into the offices to talk to hr. After 20 minutes me and the other guard had been asked to come in to hr and report what has transpired with the other guard. We both did, with her present. At this time my boss pulled out his laptop and shown that many of the accusations that she said was false and when she went on break she failed to punch out before going off site for her break. At this time hr asked me and the other guard to sign our statements and that the matter is being dealt with by company policy about harassment. They informed the other guard that her violation of company policy of going off site without punching out for her break was time theft and that the company’s legal department will be sent all documents of her termination of employment. Since she had many harassment complaints that been filed on many fellow employees of the company. She then started screaming at us that she’ll be suing us all. I haven’t heard from any lawyers about that issue.

      I live in India and we don't bend over for customers and probably as a consequence don't have crabby old women coming in at the last moment or yelling and bawling and making min wage slaves cry and quit.
      ( I read about a US couple screaming and ranting that the soup du jour = gumbo, was over 5 minutes before closing time. And getting a TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR GIFT COUPON just to shut them up = every deadbeat turning up at the store just before 9 PM looking for the same deal. Wont happen in India!)
      In India, around 15 min before actual close, all other doors are shut, leaving one door open and the guard lurks over there telling newcomers "sorry, closed, come tomorrow" and pretending not to listen if they start squawking. The ones still in the store are asked to hurry and leave as it is closing time! Anyone who objects is told "we also have a life and I have 2 kiddos waiting for me to give them a meal and tuck into bed"
      WHEN THE PENDULUM SWINGS COMPLETELY TO ONE SIDE, you will always have ***** taking advantage of this rule that "customer is always right"

      Have you ever struggled with online customer service? Did you even listen? She went round and round with them. Even accepted the wrong color shoes but not the mis-sized ones. They claimed to have sorted the problem. She came in to pick up the shoes on the day they said they’d be delivered. I don’t blame her at all. She seemed to be relatively polite but adamant. Perfectly reasonable to be entirely fed up with the company and insist on immediate proper assistance for the company’s constant errors from in-store staff. As long as you’re continuing to do so without screaming and name calling, which is clear wasn’t happening.

    I got story for you. I worked, in the early to mid 90s, in a national franchised sandwich shop. The franchisees had many questionable actions compared to the corporation wanted things to be done. Mostly why restocking of items are done before opening as to provide the freshest ingredients for customers and to keep closing to cleaning the store. They ended up having closing employees do these task, because they usually came in to open tired, and probably a bit hungover, from running another business in hospitality. In the middle of February the heater/hot water system broke down. They tried to fix it and staid open, having us heat water through warming trays and coffee maker’s to clean the store and have the bread oven on to “heat the store”. One morning, on my day of working the whole week in this environment, my bosses called up screaming about how the floors weren’t dry when he got in and wanted me there ASAP to mop them again. I stated that if the heat was working they would have been dried. He promptly stated that I was sarcastic and sounded like I didn’t want to work for two weeks. I stated, we’ll see you in two weeks and hung up the phone. At this time, i new I should start looking for new work but also that the safety issues will continue, and this effects people’s safety in how they operate. I called the health inspector and asked if a restaurant should be running without heat or hot water. He said absolutely not and wanted to know where it was. I informed him the address and was told he stop by today.
    A few days later I met up with a coworker for a few drinks on his unscheduled day off since the health inspector closed the store and sited the owners for violating health codes on food safety. My coworker said they will be closed for a month as he wasn’t revisiting the matter till proper services had been done on the heater/hot water. I acted shocked, and said that they should have taken care of the problem before this than let a handy man play around trying to fix the issue. Note this was the same handy man that suspended me for two weeks.

    I don’t work here anymore:
    In my 20s & early 30s I worked in produce for a couple of different grocery chains. On the whole, other than a few Karens, the customers were great.
    Except for one upper middle class, very angry, hateful and very racist older woman that shopped my store 2-3 times a week. Nothing was ever right, prices were wrong, our produce was trash, etc.
    She never addressed me by my name, not an excuse me or even a hey you. It was always some sort of profanity followed by one of several racist slurs. I always took it in stride, was actually amused by some of the more colorful names she came up with.
    One afternoon she was even more rancid and nasty than usual. She threw a minor tantrum over the quality of peaches we had on a floor display. I got another case out of the produce storage area for her to pick through which at least reduced her complaints. A minute later she’s complaining loudly to me about the ripeness of our bananas, nothing I can do about that. If you don’t know bananas are picked green, sprayed with an inert gas to stop ripening and when they arrive at the destination the cases are opened up to start the ripening process again.
    Then she’s off to the fresh greens (lettuce, etc.). Of course nothing is to her liking and I have to hear about it as well. As she is sorting through them and complaining even more loudly than usual she tosses a couple of bundles of fresh greens on the floor at my feet. I knelt down to pick them up & wipe up the water. That’s when she rams her cart into me, intentionally running it over my left hand and yelling, and I qoute “you fucking cracker motherfuckers keep all the good greens in the back for the fucking white people!!!”
    I’d had enough, I shove her cart away from me and kind of blew up “if our produce is so bad why in the hell would you keep coming here all the time? I’ve put up with your bullshit and name calling for 2 years and I’m done with you and your shit.” Yeah, not cool I know. I stood up got on the floor intercom paged the manager assistant manager and department manager along with giving the verbal code for security assistance.
    As soon as this angry old lady saw the department manager coming around the corner she starts screaming bloody murder that I slapped her and was calling her all sorts of racist names.
    The manager had her come to the front desk while he pulled me into his office pulled up security video to see what was going on in my department.
    When a call goes out for security at that store they immediately call police. By the time The manager had reviewed the security footage and the police also arrived. Manager brings me back out front stands between the lady and I asked me to apologize to her for cussing her out, which I refuse to do. And then not looking at either one of us says ” I reviewed the security footage would you like to press charges? “The old lady immediately pipes up and says “yes I do, lock that cracker motherfucker up “
    I’m thinking what the hell? I put up with her endless racist tirades, being hit with a cart and having my hand run over by her and I’m the one going to jail.
    The cops start to move towards me but the manager says “no, I was asking him if he wanted to press charges on this lady for assaulting him. But,” now looking at me “you’ll be put on administrative leave until this is settled in court.”
    The old woman immediately goes completely ballistic screaming and yelling and stomping her feet throwing racial slurs at me, the manager, the assistant manager, the produce manager and the two police officers of color that are standing there. I just turn my back and walk away while I’m untying my apron which I dropped on the floor on my way to the time clock. One of the police officers followed me to the time clock and asked me what I wanted to do and I said “I really don’t give a shit because I don’t work here anymore.“ walked out, drove down the street to the competition and was working there the next day.
    I found out a few days later that the manager only banned her from the store for 2 weeks & refused to do anything else about it which caused 2 other employees to quit because the had dealt with her crap in other departments even longer than I had.
    As a side note she shopped my new store and after Explaining why to my department manager I refused to help her. Ten minutes after that she blew up on someone in the meat department, threw a package of ground beef at an employee and got herself banned from that store and arrested for assault.
    At least there was a little vindication.

    the point where the person ignores what you try to tell them is where i normally whip out a piece of paper, write down the adress of a GP and tell them to go talk to the doctor about their hearing problems. that tends to make them madder than hell and rightfully so but at the same time display them as inattentive assholes with little to no care for details.

    OP The Hero Of The Shoe Story: so I'm going to share a story, I however chose to be the Villain...
    A long time ago when I worked at a certain clothing store they had a policy where certain pieces of clothing could not be delivered to the store they had to be direct-shipped to the customer.
    I was working at the returns desk when this lady storms in all upset that she hasn't received a courtesy notice/phone call that her order has come in. I asked her for the order code and I put it into the system and it shows that it's been delivered but the address on file says that it was delivered to my store.
    This was not the first time this had happened; a customer had previously manually looked up the store address and told her order to direct-ship to 1234 Fake Name St., we had to apologize to that customer and let her know that was the stores mailing address and a package was delivered to it the store manager would assume it was misdelivered and would return it to sender.
    That customer was gracious about everything and apologized for the misunderstanding, but not this lady...
    Lady: HOW DARE YOU NOT GIVE ME MY THINGS! I SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON THOSE CLOTHES AND I HAVE A WEDDING TO GET TO! * smashing the desk with her first * GET ME YOUR MANAGER!
    Me: Just a moment...
    I was shaking with anger but I knew I couldn't scream back at the customer, I went into the back and Boss was just receiving the mail; between him and the postman there was a large package. I ask Boss if I could take a look at it really quick and it had the matching order number printed on it.
    Me: Hey Boss, there's this pissed-off lady out front who had her stuff direct-delivered here and I think that's her package.
    Boss: * looks down at the package for a moment * Do you want to give it to her?
    My Boss knew that if I said anything bad about a customer it was usually because they were actually crappy customers, I miss that guy sometimes.
    Me: Nope.
    Boss: Ok. * Looks to the postman * I refuse to accept that package, the recipient does not work here.
    Postman: 👍 * leaves with package *
    Boss lets the angry lady know that the package was unable to be delivered here and the delivery company already was taking it back to the warehouse and that a refund would be issued as soon as it was restocked; he would have offered to reorder the clothes but the lady just screamed obscenities then stormed off claiming that she was going to get a lawyer and all.
    I bought Boss the coffee that day and the worst we got out of that was a bad review.

    There was a time, when doing a night shift at a London railway station, after close of service and station that i would check the berthed trains for lost property before the overnight train cleaners came in. We would often recover goods and phones etc. Banks were good as we could ring them and pass on relevant info so people could recover their goods without cancelling bank cards etc. Mobile phones were good as well, because there was always an entry for "mum" or "dad" and we had a security guard who had a "knack" for unlocking phones. To get goods back to its rightful owner always gave me a buzz and the owners were generally grateful.

    I have watched this once before. It hurts my soul that you did not know Getty Lee is bass guitarist, keyboard, and vocalist for the band Rush. I am sure you have had to have heard the song Tom Sawyer, Freewill, Limelight, or Working Man. Working Man happens to have one of the most awesome bass lines in history. Also their drummer Neil Peart was considered the most talented and ranked in the top three on every article about music that was ever published. He played as their drummer 40+ years with the band. Sadly he passed away a few years now and the rest of the band has sworn they would never go on without the all 3 members. This is absolutely the most amazing 3 piece group in history. Take a listen you would never believe there are only 3 people. Working Man would be a good start if you really want a true rock song. I don't know if you will ever read this but if you do please take my advice. Truly legends. Also look up Niel Peart from solo he had a drum set that would completely turn 360 degrees. If not just look at a picture you can find it on RUclips or course. Sorry so long but have been a Rush fan since their very first album. Hope you read this an give it a try.

So this customer starts to harass the author over a store related issue cause the store couldn’t be bothered to properly manage the line? And no staff could be bothered to intervene while author was getting chewed out over the stores failure to properly communicate to customers? Was this author some hack who can only get invited by a one man book store or what?
