  • You were robbed? I want a free bagel.

    Yep, folks, the topic title says it all.


    So today was a huge sale for our store. We had people lined up around the store after getting their various amazing deals. To aid the store staff in their daily grind, the store chipped in and got us bagels and spreads and coffee. Really nice of them. Bossman was telling us an interesting story when we were in the break room with him on our breaks.

    Apparently, when he had gone in to pick up the bagels, there was a customer (?) yelling at the guy behind the counter. Apparently, the store had just been robbed minutes ago. The employees were shuffling about, calling the police and doing who knows what. The customer was yelling to someone that because the place had been robbed, he had been greatly inconvenienced, and wants compensation for his trouble, and wanted free bagels.

    Bossman started laughing at this point when he said that the manager just looked at the customer funny and kicked him out of the store. Customer shouted things like "You treat your customers like this?! The BBA will hear about this!" and stormed off. Everyone listening lulz'd.


    Anyway, Bossman shared a few tips on the matter with the guy behind the desk and advised him on what he should do, since he himself had been the subject of a few robberies, being in retail for a long time, and comforted him. Manager of the bagel place was appreciative, and gave him a 25% discount on the bagels. Bossman waved it off, saying it's just business between businesses, but Manager guy insisted, since we always get our holiday / sale day bagels from them anyway.

    First let me say that Bossman sounds awesome. Secondly, your title made me . As horrible as it is, I gotta appreciate the humor.

        What a moron! First of all, it's not the store's fault they were robbed. Second of all, don't you think they've lost enough in revenue, now you want them to throw more of it away??? What an ass!

            That customer should demanded that the robber give him a free bagel. But then robbers don't give, they take.

              Bad customer was just robber #2 in a small string of robbers. He just happened to fail.

              Only, now I'm imagining a robber coming in with a gun, threatening their lives with it, and ordering a bagel with cream cheese, and a danish to go, and maybe a nice strawberry milk, (Making lipsmacking sounds all the while.) and then pays for it all in full and leaves.

              The imagery just makes me laugh out loud. So absurd. I love it.

                This happened (sort of) at my store before I started there. Apparently the robber came in to our store while it was busy, placed an order to go, walks next door and robs them, and then came back to our store and drank his drink!! At least until he noticed one of the employees next door coming over to warn my team and booked it when the employee pointed him out! He got caught pretty quick...
