Drunken water guy

Did I read that correctly? He is not buying anything, just demanding water. Then I would tell him to F*** off. I would also put a lock on the restroom door and tell him that it is not a public restroom.

My store has a rotten reputation, and I know it. My challenge is to clean that reputation up. Hopefully I don't lose my mind before then!

It sucks having to clean up someone else's mess, but you've made a very good start at it. And your upper management and employees seems to be happy with you, and willing to back you up (all of us at CS certainly are on your side as well, though we aren't there in person). Perhaps once you've gotten rid of the nogoodniks and freeloaders, you'll find the store's reputation climbing back up to a healthy level.

I wonder if Sucky manager was getting favors from him as well, for DWG to get water?

Eww.. some of the things we are finding out about AH and some of the things CS members have suggested are turning this into the bad kind of adult movie in my mind!

Someone pass the brain bleach!

we don't know where this story originated, but in ARIZONA, if you run any kind of business, and someone comes in wanting a glass of water, you must provide it free.

many companies have a refrigerator full of 1 liter bottles of water with their logo on the label.. good advertising.

Yes, you're right about the water begin free.

The problem I think wasn't that he wanted free water, but .... that he was a complete shithead in how he asked for it. Skipping the line, barking out the order on the way to the toilet, and then trying to skip the line again in a fit that his water wasn't ready for him yet.

Cos he still got his water... he just had to wait his turn.

Maybe now he'll develop some manners.
