Juiceworx on Amazon stated in her review of an electric kettle:
for boiling water
So basically this thread is for posting hilariously stupid customer reviews that you've seen and want to share with us so we can all laugh at the idiot in question.
For the same kettle, different customer:
What moronic customer reviews have you read?
Don't know of any offhand? Just go to any online store (like Amazon) and read the product reviews. You'll be sure to find some precious nuggets you can share in no time!

Yes, electric kettles are not really designed for making pasta, you should indeed use the stove Einstein.Hemingway Sam wrote:It takes at least 7 minutes to boil the water, so if you want to boil some pasta water you have to do it 2 times, and in that case you might as well use the stowe...

a customer comes in
"I want to pay 50 cents for a pack of 50 blank dvds"
I said we carry those sir, but they are whatever they cost
he got very angry, and my boss refused to repeal the complaint
No, I'm not making this up
what
seriously
Well those do look pretty cheap.
Is it a nice restaurant otherwise?
I once got a complaint against me because, when someone asked me the price of an object, I told them. Apparently they thought I was making fun of them because the price tag was easily visible? I didn't understand it very much myself.
yep, my first one. one more and I am up for termination consideration
...I dunno, what's your opinion of hokey 50s style diners?
well, that kind of makes sense if it's a reasonably nice restaurant and you have those big red squeeze bottles
but if it's a nice restaurant what the hell are you using ketchup for anyway
edit: oh, a diner? that's what those bottles are made for
Did you just look at it and tell them, or did you also point to the price tag as you told them?
that is some bullshit
I just glanced at it.
We had a lot of really, really weird customers.
film at 11
I would be out of there as soon as the opportunity presented itself. That's just absurd.
you don't really need a film to figure this out
We have people call our offices and tell our receptionist for an hour why our games are now terrible and how we've destroyed their childhoods.
Did you...did you tell her "Grand Theft Auto"?
He tried to return a 10 dollar ball mouse that he'd had for like a week because it had stopped working, so I took a look at it and told him that maybe he should clean the area in which he uses it.
He got all pissy until I told him to look inside, there was more or less an entire sandwich stuck inside of it and I told him straight up "I call them like I see them."
After that every time he came in he'd ask for my help. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of tough love.
So he stole them, told me I had lost them, and then proceeded to begin filling out forms for termination
i'm just looking all over for my keys, because something seems off
customers come up, I am about to land two crazy high ticket items
but lo and behold I have no keys to use
then 15 minutes later, he comes up grinning like a damn fool. Hahah I took your keys to teach you a lesson.
The customers saw this, freaked out on me and him.
And I ended up losing a great deal of very plausible commission
"Yes we have GTAIV in stock but no I can't sell it to you until your balls drop"
I feel really bad for their driver, as he is a nice enough guy, but probably is losing out on tips because some dude taking orders is an ass.
and he has been trying to fire me, but never with things with any ground
and my customer review and sales are the best in the fucking store cause it is goddamn kmart and it is slowly killing whatever personality I have left
Well... did you tell him that's what you're supposed to do? (Not implying you're in the wrong here or anything fyi, just curious what his response would've been if you said that's what you were supposed to do.)
your manager is officially a fucking shitheel
8, his boss is obviously 8.
ah, well this explains everything
he's a manager at Kmart
I mean, if you're a manager at Kmart you've pretty much settled in for the long haul
and he knows how pathetic that makes him
so he's taking it out on his employees by abusing what little power he has in his sad life
So we put hidden security tags on items, so people cannot steal them
These things cost 1.50 each. My manager asked me to put them on high ticket items.
So anyway, he comes and yells at me for not putting them on items that cost .50
that means, for every item, even if we sell them, we lose a dollar.
He says he is right, and proceeds to hounds over me, making sure I put two on every single .50 cent item
Seriously, find anything else. Your manager is obviously buttarded.
yeah, but they're usually not morons on top of it
Didn't K-Mart file for bankruptcy some years back?
Have they learned nothing?!?
Isn't there someone above him you can go to? If you are able to get some face time with his boss, you may want to document shit like that as it's pretty egregiously shitty management. On the other hand you may be getting into some work politics if he's staying on because he's related to someone higher up. Then you may just catch shit for trying to expose his bullshit. Hopefully you can find a job somewhere better soon.
