Customers from HellThe 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.)

I was one of them...So, here is my story of being a stupid consumer.
It was Xmas time I was shopping for presents, i wondered in to HMV and saw a CD i thought would be an excellent present for my sister (read fuck it that will do). I approached the counter CD in hand. I asked if they did student discount. They said yes. I had forgotten my student ID. Ah what is this, it is a store card which only students have. I branchished it. The calm kind guy, was very polite, but coundn't do a discount etc etc, i paid full price, after some bumbling words.
Turned out i was branshing a Virgin store card thingy. Oh what a fool i looked like.
Having said all that, i was in Oz during my student days and my student id worked out there when i got discounted cinema tickets. Which is weird given that a couple of times in my own home country it didn't....
