A few days ago I was helping a woman and her mother find a particular pair of pants. The style/brand she really wanted is no longer available at our store so we were looking for something similar. We finally found a pair the mother thought would be okay so she went into the fitting room to try them on.
While she was doing that, her daughter and I continued to look at a few more racks, chatting away about nothing in particular. The dept was a bit of a mess (our hours have been cut). As we walked and chatted I stopped to pick-up a few articles of clothing off the floor and said, "I believe this is the 3rd time tonight I've had to pick up these same clothes."
Daughter: "I think it's such a shame how horrible people behave when they're shopping. I've seen them knock clothes on the floor and not even attempt to pick them up."
Me: "I've seen people knock clothes to the floor then kick them under the racks."
Daughter: "It's just disgusting."
Me: "One time I saw a girl knock a shirt onto the floor. Instead of picking it up, she stepped on it and proceeded shuffling along the floor on it."
Daughter: "Did you say...I hope you have money on you because now you have to buy that?"
Me: "Oh, no. We aren't allowed to talk back to customers. The customer is always right, ya know."
Daughter: "The customer IS NOT always right."
Me: "They are here."
Daughter: "Well, if I ever see someone doing that I'll tell them off for you."
Me: "OK, cool!"
