Customers from Hell
The customer is always right. And yet, as 'listentomyopinion' writes, this is utter bollocks.
Tell us of the customers who were wrong, wrong, wrong but you still had to smile at (if only to take their money.)

The story below of the woman who thought people could see her through her PC reminded me.
I've worked in all kinds of places and one of them was an electrical department of a very posh department store in Brighton.
One thing we sold were Roberts Radios, with the 'Revival' range being very popular.
These were very nice £100 (this is 2000) 60s style radios. To put in the massive PP9 battery you had to open the bottom which exposed the workings.
Well I had a perfectly ordinary looking woman came in and said she was having problems with her radio.
I plugged it in and had a listen. Sounded fine. She then went on to tell me that people were coming in through the air conditioning and stealing parts out of it.
I told her that it looked fine and there was nothing missing.
But no she was sure that these people were stealing things and she wanted someone from Roberts to come and have a look.
We had to get security to remove her.
Oh and we had another old woman who brought her Roberts Revival back because she couldn't get the Light Programme (ask your nan).
