I owned a retail store for years, rude customers were very rare. I showed my employees how much it cost in advertising to get someone to walk in the door, treat them like gold, they are.

Disarming the most annoying 'Karen' is an art.

I imagine that your store had a pretty nice customer base. It is also a different world - rudeness is far more common.

Can pretty much guarantee your customer base was nothing like what Walmart associates deal with. It takes a special kind of a-hole to call corporate to try to get someone fired because they wouldn’t return something without a receipt that’s clearly used far beyond newness.

Big difference between you and working in a Walmart or Kroger
