North Carolina, Pharmacy, USA | Unfiltered | December 8, 2017
(I work at a pharmacy. It’s just me and two other people today, so I am in charge of customer initial contact.)
Me: *standing at the computer, hears heavy breathing come my way from the other side of the store*
Customer: *leans in the counter exhausted and breathing heavy* “Hey, hold on let me rest right quick.” *breathing heavy and sweating and smells like wet dog*
Me: “Okay.”
Customer: “Can I get my pain pills filled?”
Me: “Yeah, I can get it filled.”
(My manager immediately comes over.)
Manager: “Ma’am, you’re not allowed in this store. I watched you stealing just last week.”
Customer: *appalled* “It wasn’t me, it was my daughter. She looks exactly like me with her hair tied up.”
Manager: “Ma’am, I watched YOU steal it. Your daughter came to you to ask to take it and you put it in your purse.”
Customer: “I’m going to kick her a**! The same thing happened to me at the other store; it is always happening to me.”
(She walks out cursing while all three of us are watching her leave to make sure she doesn’t go off.)
Me: “If you keep getting caught, stop stealing. Easy fix.”
Manager: “She is an a** anyway.”
