I am currently employed at a big box retail store as a computer technician, The other day I had a client come up to me with an empty printer cartridge and a receipt that was crumpled and old. The client asked me "Sir, do you think it is okay to sell your customers empty ink cartridges?" I was a bit puzzled by this and asked him to see his receipt. Needless to say, the cartridge was six months old. I asked the client "Sir, Who is to say that you didn't just put this cartridge into your printer and use it over the course of the last six months?" The client looked suprised and replied "Sure, I put it into my printer.. but it told me there was no ink." At this point the client was somewhere between livid and completely confused. I then told the client "Okay... Well what took you six months?" The client then called for a supervisor. My supervisor may as well have had a blindfold and earmuffs on in this situation. My supervisor then asked "Okay sir, What would you like me to do for you?" The client replied "Well... I want my money back or a replacement cartridge for free!" My supervisor glances at me with a grin and says "Well I apologize sir, but neither of those options work for me. Try again?" The client is furious at that point due to the fact that I immediately let out a chuckle and a smile which he saw. He then pulls out some shitty pleather looking dollar store wallet and opens it up to show an even more hilarious police badge made obviously of plastic, leans to my supervisor and says, "Would you like me to get some officers down here?" We laugh at him and offer him 10% off and he shuts up completely.

All in all, working in a retail environment makes you realize how fucking stupid a large majority of the general population is.
