Most stores are trying to adhere to their customer service policy where ‘the customer is always right’. However, there are really bad customers that will make you doubt this ideal. Oftentimes, this oft-quoted catchphrase in the business world gives bad customers the right to become jerks. That is, at the expense of the staff or even the reputation of the store itself. Customers are NOT always right. When it comes to disputes, the side of the sales person should also be considered. There are always two sides to every story and the store staff should also be given the same opportunity to explain themselves.
Businesses can’t choose which customers to serve but they also have the right to refuse service to bad customers. Some stores would even go so far as to expose their client’s jerkiness online. This is not only to shame their bad customers but to warn other stores of these misbehaving people. And if you ever encounter some rude customers in the future, you know just what to do. Learn from these stores and show everyone that bad customers have no place in your store. These photos below show some instances where customers acted like jerks. Of course, these stores won’t let that slide so easily. Warning: you’ll get angry and you’ll certainly feel disgusted with these ill-mannered customers. We sure hope you don’t get to come across these people anytime soon.
