Scammers amuse me

Customer 1 in the drive-thru at the cigarette store tells Paige "I need a pack of Winston Lights," and hands her a Greendot card. Paige recognizes her as the woman who scammed her before. The first time she was there, she handed Paige her Greendot and Paige gave her a pack of cigarettes (big no no, Paige!), then turned to run the credit card. The card was declined and the woman drove away before Paige could turn back to the window, leaving her card. Apparently she was going to try and scam her again, but it didn't work this time. Yes, the card was declined again. The first card is still in the office.

Customer 2 comes into the grocery store and goes through Ed's line holding a box of Clairol hair dye and says she needs her money back because it's the wrong color. Ed says he'll need to ask Danny, the assistant manager. Danny is on the phone and just says, "Sure sure, you have your reciept?" I'M standing behind the woman at my register and shaking my head like mad because we've never sold hair dye in the three years I've worked there! Of course, Danny pays no attention to me so I had to speak up and say that we've never carried it. The woman nearly starts crying. "But she said she bought it at a grocery store!" Um, not this one, honey.

Customer 3 called the main manager early this morning, claiming that the peanuts she bought had maggots in them. Ooooookay. I've never heard of peanuts in the shell having maggots, and I've been trying to find out if that's possible with no luck. Anyway, she started rambling on about how she couldn't eat anything she'd bought from the store, she went to the doctor (WHY if she didn't eat anything?) and that Von said he'd refund her entire order and she didn't have to bring it back. My manager did it, then later found out that Von hadn't said any such thing. *sigh* Tell me again why I'm not good enough to be a manager.

Slightly unrelated, I despise the new cashier.
