This situation happened earlier this week at work.
A male customer came to my line with several reusable bags with the groceries he wanted to buy. He told me that he wanted the groceries evenly distributed *weight wise* in the bags after scanning them. He also told the courtesy clerk/bagger this. That particular courtesy clerk/bagger likes to pack all of the cold stuff together, the bread and other "squishy stuff" together and so on. After he paid for his groceries he noticed that the courtesy clerk/bagger did not bag his groceries the way he wanted them bagged. So he told her "you did not bag my groceries the way I wanted them. I told you to evenly distribute the weight in the bags, and you did not do that. So I want you to do that." That courtesy clerk told him how she bags groceries, but he did not want her to bag his groceries that way. So she took the groceries out of his bags and started over. He saw something he meant to not buy in one of his bags, and told me this. So I told him he would have to go to Customer Service to get a refund since he already paid for his groceries. He just stood there looking at me. Meanwhile a line started forming behind him. He then asked me if he could just do an exchange. I said yes, just go get what you want.
The customer behind him was getting irritated to the point that she told me that she was in a hurry. The male customer had not left to get what he wanted to exchange, and so I looked at her and then looked at him so she would get the point that he was the cause of the backup. She then motioned with her hands to get him to move along. He finally left to get what he wanted to exchange.
He came back to me while I was scanning the irritated customer's groceries. I had to tell him that he had to go to Customer Service to complete the exchange.
