that is WAY too much to ask. pray that you don't get cussed out. That is more realistic

I fought with an incredibly uppity little **** at Circuit City last year on Black Friday when she tried to tell me that they weren't price matching that day. I told her to read the flyer and she said the flyer supported her assertion, so I stood in front of customer service and read it aloud for everyone to hear. Then they tried to simmer me down by saying that I was going to get the price match and the extra ten percent, to which I bitched at them that I shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get the discounts promised in their circulars and that I should have gotten it to begin with.

So, in my experience, the employees can be just as much of a **** as the customers.

yes..I totally agree..but I was always an angel
I worked at Victoria's Secret and a lady cussed me out because her credit card declined(as if it were my fault). So NATURALLY I felt bad for the lady. She acted surprised it had declined, so I asked if she would like me to call the company. "HELL YES I want you to call the company..that's BULLLLL SH*T" ...um...yeah...so I called. Come to find out-she hadn't made a payment in 3 months. YEP! That'll do it. haha...so she got pissed...and made a scene in front of the 16 lines of customers scanning a mile long. Then asked ME for a pair or scissors so she could cut up her card. Ha...I should have given them to her. It's not like she'll be needing it anymore

I was gonna say the SAME thing. That's why the employees act "as bad" as the customers...because of experiences like that.

Working for best buy and several other retailers during my youth....what custmers dont realize is they can be banned/kicked out of the store for ANY reason. What Dissention said about yelling and bitching at customer service, they could have booted her right then and there for be a "disturbance" to fellow employees and customers, end of story. I probably had 3 or 4 instances like that where I had cops come in and remove people from the building when they started getting kooky like that.

There was nothing "poor" about her, she was an asswipe from the get-go. She literally screamed at me when I walked up to the service desk and asked her to price match the stuff I had with me, then proceeded to talk down to me and roll her eyes when explaining that they weren't price matching. I don't care how stressed out you are, don't tell me that your store isn't living up to their policies simply because you don't want to do more work.

Come to Boston for Black Friday. It's rampant.

You also have a point. There are always exceptions. Had the employee been nice and courteous to you (and "right" about the price matching stuff) they could have pitched you to the curb like yesterdays news.
