SHOUTING.
I instigated a full-blown shouted argument with a customer of mine at 8:59 this morning. I am still fucking livid at the slanderous cunt. But generally I'm not one of life's shouters.

Are you? If so, do you do so as a technique to get what you want (as my ghastly prole of a boss does) or do you lose control and can't help it?

There was a hilarious dunce on the tube last night who was being absolutely destroyed at full volume by his girlfriend. We heard it all, including how his mum wouldn't post bail for him and how he was going straight to 'Scrubs' for 18 months, out in nine but he wasn' bothered. She countered this by saying he was a 'dick' who needed to 'man up' and suggested prison might help with this. It was v LOL.

He has been all over 'Twitter' and review sites saying we are a 'ripoff' and worse.
He asked for his goods to be left in the fucking street and they were nicked. He has seen the full tracking history, along with the subesquent enquiry with the carrier showing the GPS records of where the driver parked, he's taken up hours of my time and after all that the fucking arsehole is slating my firm all over the fucking internet.

With this in mind I called him and asked him whether he was in any doubt as to whether we'd sent his goods or not, and whether we'd done all we could to help him and even after he admitted that we were not in any way at fault he said he'd continue to call us cunts online unless he had a refund.

Then get a summary judgment against him.
Even if he doesn't pay the charges for it, you can send that to the websites he's posted shit on and they should take it off.

It's a civil matter, with libel being an expensive niche area. It's very expensive to pursue a libel action, and pointless if the defendant is of no means.
There's always going to be negative reviews of a service, any dick can write shit on the internet.

I fear I just have to let him keep being a cunt until he gets bored.
There's no way on earth I'm replacing his goods or refunding him.

The threat of legal action might have some sway with any websites of note, being the business is being libelled and they are facilitating that libel
Fair criticism is one thing, but depending on the content of his pissy moanings on industry specific websites statements designed to maliciously harm the business are a different matter.
If you ignore him he'll get bored and wait for his next online crusade, just contact site mods for deletion of his comments.

I only shout when I really lose my temper, which is quite rare
And generally, it's only ever aimed at the same person, as she's able to annoy me more than anyone else. However, when I do shout, it usually surprises people, as I have a very loud voice.

Today is not going well, I've got a headache, a sore throat, my banoffee pie didn't go well last night, and my fly has just broken.

I never shout at customers, which is a shame because most of them are fucking idiots.

Cunts, pricks, and cyclists, mainly.
While we had the idiot prole builders in, one of them was pretty well constantly on his 'phone shouting at his girlfriend about the various parking fines he'd accrued, and would then, er ... "regale" me with the detail of the story, and how he wanted a new girlfriend.

Which was nice.

I tried to take the Shouty technique front of house when I moved out of the kitchen, but found it quickly lost its effect when you can't back it up by throwing a hot pan at the bastard waiters.
