I have one funny story from my years as an auto parts counterman. I worked for a local chain of 4 stores in Johnson County. The owner was a blast to work for, he didn't take crap from vendors, customers or anyone.

He had each one of his four stores located near a Western Auto. One day this douche comes in and wanted an air filter for his car. He was bitching about the price; wondering out loud if it was even the right one; just generally being a dick about everything. He ended up leaving, saying that he was going next door to Western Auto to get it cheaper.

He came back shortly afterwards to get the filter we had, because WA was out of stock. The filter was still sitting on the counter and my boss picks it up and flings it behind him down the aisle and tells him, "Sorry, I don't have that one in stock". The dude was flabbergasted. He was like, "but thats it right back there on the floor." My boss wouldn't give in, and he had to leave without his filter. It was funny as hell.

I can also remember dropping commercial customers because they would abuse our parts drivers on a regular basis.
