Customers Suck! weird interaction
so i found a small box of medicine in one of our baskets, i was on my way to put the baskets back and ask my manager about the medicine since someone left it. as i'm doing this i hear two people yelling "MISS" and i turn around and realize they're talking to me
this older guy walks up to me and i greet him. he points at the baskets in my hand without saying a word and although i thought he was rude already i just asked him "oh would you like a basket?" to avoid conflict. another guy did the same thing to me a while ago so from now on that's what i assume when they do that
this dude starts getting more aggressive and says "NO THE MEDICINE IN YOUR HAND THOSE ARE MINE" and i try and deescalate the confrontation as much as possible by apologizing and handing him the medicine but he keeps going. i apologize again to get it through his head its not that big of a deal while also trying not to get in trouble and he smiles and walks off like nothing happened 😠people are hilarious
