    Since the customer is always right, I say go back to Wal mart, buy something to make yourself a customer, then have the manager fired.
    I approve of this post!
    I'd tell you where to go, but I work there and I don't want to see you everyday.

      As an American, I'd like to justify my omission of drop bears on the basis that I haven't the foggiest idea what the hell they are.

        The downside to what Jester said is that it isn't even economic good sense most of the time to fire someone on a Cussedtomer's say-so. Beyond the legal costs of defending themselves against the few who contest such things, there's the termination pay, and the intrinsic costs of training a new employee. It's just plain stupid.

          Oh, I'm sure I missed a few. I mean, when you stop to think about it, the world is a scary place with lots of things to be fearful of....El Paso,
          I lived there for exactly one year (east side). It is now referred to as my "year of insanity" for a reason.

          I had to put up with everybody wetting themselves about how great he was when he was playing here at UNM. Now he looks like a giant baby.

          That also leads to - Being an Aggie (NMSU) surrounded by the "dullards up north", aka, UNM fans.

          And I'd like to add - digging a mesquite thorn out of your leg. Happened about 35 years ago, I still have a scar.

            The customer is always right? (Channelling The Gord) That means ... door's to your left.
            Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

              I had to remind myself that not all "Aggies" are from Texas A&M. After living in Texas for three years, I got used to associating that nickname with that school.

              Though the stereotypes were reversed. One of my favorite Texas Aggie jokes went:

              Q: How do you get an Aggie off your front porch?
              A: Pay him for the pizza.

                I'm a blue Aggie. My two quarters of lower edumbification were at Utah State.

                My dad shot another cheerleader at a Aggie pep rally... The target deserved it... He was impersonating a Ute... Though my dad didn't know it, he was also a cousin of dad's future wife...

                  Ewe stop that right now! Mutton's worse than bad puns! So be a good little lamb, and stop shearing with the class, wool you please? Thanks!
                  Well, bad puns are to be expected...After all, we are talking about Wool-Mart

                  Don't sweater it, though...It could have been worsted, our esteemed OP could have gotten fired because of a jacquard-ass customer who was irate at being asked for ID, even though we all know that you gotta cardigan if they're under a certain apparent age, repeat custy or no...

                    It also hurts the customer who complained, assuming the company didn't hire an immediate replacement, and the SC now has to wait longer in line since there's one less cashier there.
