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.
