The customer is always right.
Yes sir no sir no matter what never argue with them, where was the supervisors they are suppose to step in when it gets heated. Son got a job at the local supermarket those are the rules if it gets heated there's always more than two supervisors near by. He had his first pissed off customer the other day complaining that the prices of wine are to high and 'He' should look into it! lol. I said you should of just told her 'Hey I only work here lady I don't fix the prices'. Not even allowed to say that always has to be Yes sir, or yes ma'am. Anyway the supervisor over heard her and came and sorted it out. If He argues with them he can be fired on the spot.

I think its quite sad whats happened. This young worker probably was under heaps of stress working in a fast food outlet, they have to move fast all day and where the hell was his supervisor out the back having a cigarette I bet!

The fact that the man died from the assault means either that the younger man was very aggressive in his action or that the older man was rather decrepit. What likely happened was that the customer was causing trouble and smacked the 'whipper snapper', causing the employee to fly off handle.

I remember when my mother approached some credit card salesmen. Judging by their appearance I wouldn't trust them with my particulars but my mother didn't seem to mind.

Couple weeks later we found out that they misled my mother by actually registering her to a completely different bank credit card and made empty promises of a promotion.

So we went back to ask them. Couple minutes later because they were not admitting to lying to my mother I told them that it was amounting to fraud. The guy felt offended and then he tried to punch me in the face but missed. No I'm not the type of guy who are looking for any trouble but this man was just being an *******. He quickly fled the scene while taunting me for a duel.

The place security at first quickly pretended nothing had happened because I'm a Chinese of race but we got it sorted out in the end by bringing the guy to the management office. He lied most of the time and showed no remorse. Just a low life who lied to prospect customers. He was wearing a big cross too on his chest . . . . . . obviously which means nothing to him.
