0:00.0 | An entitled customer screams and yells at me after they don't get exactly what they want. |
0:04.5 | But after listening to that for long enough, I decided that enough is enough. |
0:08.5 | So as a result, I yelled back, forcing my manager to step in so that I wouldn't lose my job. |
0:14.1 | And I'm honestly so sick at customers like this, and I hope I never deal with these people ever again. |
0:18.9 | Here's what happened. |
0:19.8 | Okay, to put context around |

1:08.4 | in his 40s, both with very thick Eastern European accents. I try to |
1:12.5 | calm things down and explain to them that they have to wait a day for the missing piece. I say that |
1:17.1 | they're free to take what we have or take everything tomorrow. Well, they just start yelling |
1:21.4 | at me. And you know what? I'm okay with this. When I tell them that they're free to contact |
1:25.1 | their salesmen about the issue, they begin swearing at me, telling me that it's my job to call them. |
