			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Short but still annoying.<br />
Grocery store where I work no longer has baskets. They have small buggies and giant buggies. No baskets.<br />
<br />
Whiny Customer: &quot;Why don't you have baskets anymore?&quot;<br />
Me: &quot;People steal them, sir.&quot;<br />
WC: &quot;What! Why is it that downtown where there are more criminals the stores have baskets?!?&quot;<br />
Me: &quot; ...&quot;<br />
<br />
What I *wanted* to say was &quot;How the hell should I know? Go ask the fucking criminals!&quot; But there were customers behind him.<br />
<br />
I suggested he contact corporate. That got the usual &quot;Pfft&quot; making it clear that this was far too much trouble. Thankfully he left shortly thereafter.<br />
Seriously, use a small buggy if you're not buying much. I do. I'm buying a carton of milk and a loaf of bread ... I grab a small buggy.<br />
<br />
Later I asked the store manager about this, just to make sure I was giving the correct explanation. I was. He said one time he was helping out with the pickup option (order online and come get it) and the customer opened their trunk and ... there were four or five baskets in there. <img src="https://www.customerssuck.com/board/core/images/smilies/rolleyes.png" border="0" alt="" title="Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)" smilieid="7" class="inlineimg" /><img data-align="none" data-size="full" border="0" src="https://www.customerssuck.com/board/core/image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==" alt="" data-fullsize-url="https://www.customerssuck.com/board/core/image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==" data-thumb-url="https://www.customerssuck.com/board/core/image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==&amp;type=thumb" data-title="Click on the image to see the original version" data-caption="" class="bbcode-attachment thumbnail js-lightbox bbcode-attachment--lightbox" />​ Granted it's possible they weren't all (or any of 'em) ours but clearly they had been taken from *some* store.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[How can someone manage to swipe a payment card 16 different ways and still get it wrong?!  I once put small printed &quot;stripe faces THIS WAY&quot; labels down the face of the pinpads indicating the swipe direction (and they were working!), but someone took them down.  No &quot;handwritten&quot; signs as per manglement...<br />
<br />
A lot of said customers expect me to physically handle the card and do <i>everything</i> for them (swipe, enter PIN, confirm payment).  I've lost count of how many times I've explained that no, we <i>can't</i> handle a card or interact with the pinpad (unless a customer is legally blind and/or physically impaired, and even then only if they indicate they need us to assist).]]></content:encoded>

All I know is that it's quite odd, and VERY COOL!<br />

			<content:encoded>Our IT department regularly sends out “test” emails to see if we’ll fall for phishing emails. Today’s is coming from “it@“ bankname.com. If it was legit, it would be coming from an individual’s email. But the funny part is when you hover over the link, it goes to “do.not.click.this.link.”domain.net. 🤣</content:encoded>
