Angry Customer


 If you remember from my older post, that I had a bad experence with a rude customer hurling bad languages because he had to pay for his meal first.

Well it happened again…
Not at me, but it seem this person hate was directed at the manager and some of the staff, threating violence and hurling abuse again.
The Police was rang, but there did not seem interested and did not want to come down to deal with what was a very aggressive and violent customer.

And don’t get me started on how useless the Police are, I will talk about my experence with them in another post.

Anyway, the customer wanted a refund for reasons, and the manager was ok with that and wanted to get more information to sort out a refund, but for what every reason, the customer started to get angry and violent and aggressive.

So why are people such shitheads and what makes them feel like there can treat people in the customer service sector like crap.
If I talked to someone like shit, I can grantee, my relationship would be over, my parents would disown me and I would get arrested for public disorder offence.

While people can get angry and annoyed at not getting the experence or service expected from a business, been polite and respectful will get you a lot further if you are calm and polite and explain your frustration and even what you expect to be done about it. And in most cases you can even take it customer complaint department if you not happy with the outcome.

You might not get anywhere with it, but you will at least get a better response and a possible solution to threats of violence and bad language.

Security Nightmare: My Flat’s Broken Entrance and a Homeless Intruder

Yesterday, I noticed something unsettling—the main entrance to my block of flats had been deliberately damaged. The wiring for the door’s locking system had been ripped out, leaving the entrance completely unsecured. That alone was worrying enough, but what happened next made it even worse. This morning, I woke up to find a homeless person sleeping on the floor in the communal area, just outside my flat. That’s when it hit me—this wasn’t just a minor repair issue; it was a major security risk. Anyone could walk into the building at any time, with no way to keep them out. Looking back, I think I know when this started. Two nights ago, around 9 PM, my buzzer rang. I almost answered it but decided to ignore it—no one should be trying to get into the building at that time. The next day, I noticed the damaged wiring. The lock wasn’t just broken—it had been sabotaged from the inside. That means someone must have been let in, either by another resident or by buzzing random flats until someone...

Patience, Priorities, and Parking Fines: A Night in the Life of a Restaurant Worker

Working in a fast-paced restaurant environment is no easy feat, especially on a chaotic Saturday night. With orders flying in, customers waiting, and the general buzz of a busy shift, it takes a lot to stay grounded and focused. But then, you have moments that make you shake your head—like when a delivery driver decides they’re the centre of the universe. The situation started while I was bagging up a click-and-collect order. We have a process for this: go through each item with the customer to make sure their order is correct. It’s a simple but essential step to avoid any mix-ups or complaints later. While I was in the middle of helping the customer, a delivery driver started interrupting me, insisting that the bag I was handling was his. I told him, politely but firmly, that I was dealing with a customer and he would have to wait his turn. But he kept going on about it, as if his impatience would magically make me prioritize him. I repeated myself—he would have to wait until I finish...

The Struggle of Shared Spaces: Dealing with Inconsiderate Temporary Tenants

Living in a block of flats comes with its fair share of challenges, but one of the most frustrating things is when temporary tenants or visitors treat communal areas like their personal lounge. For the past few weeks, a group of workers—presumably renting a short-term place while working on a construction project—have been turning the entrance of my building into their own smoking den, and it’s making life miserable. These guys show up in their orange hi-vis jackets, rugged boots, and dirty work clothes, plant themselves on the steps, and puff away like it’s their personal smoking area. The problem? The smoke isn’t just an eyesore—it’s seeping into the building, making the entire entrance reek of stale cigarettes. Worse still, every time I come and go, I have to squeeze past them, coughing my lungs up while they sit there without a care in the world. It’s not just the smoking, either. They leave their mess behind—cigarette butts scattered around, empty beer cans tossed on the stairs, t...
