This is a story I heard in the break room of big retail chain.
So this lady tries to return a two pack of vitamins or something, but the thing is that the two pack is out of the box and have the labels removed, so no UPC bar code. The customer service lady tells the returner that she can't return it, due to what I just said. The returner is a little perturbed, but walks away.
A few minutes later, the returner returns to the customer service desk, her vitamins in a box.
Customer Service: Where did you get this?
Returner: From the shelf.
CS: ...Well, where are the vitamins you brought in here?
Returner: On the shelf.
CS: You can't do that.
Returner: Why not?
When I heard that, I'm just rolling my eyes at this point. Her next sentence got me laughing, though.
CS: Because the store could get shut down if we let you, and you won't be able to shop here at all.
CS said that the lady had the "deer in the headlights" look. I didn't hear the resolution to the story because I was laughing so hard. I think CS must read these boards because her retort was so perfectly in tune with the tone of this site.
