Nobody likes a whiner…

Especially when the person doing the whining is an adult!

In this story, the customer interaction starts with a whiny child, but it’s quickly easy to see where the child has picked up her behavior.

Take a look at how this worker put the child’s whiny mother in her place.

We think you’re gonna get a big kick out of it!

“Whining won’t get you what you want!”

“I had a woman and her young daughter in my line. As she was stacking her merchandise onto the counter, her daughter holds up a Frozen Barbie and asks “Can I get this????”

Mom: NO! I said no toys.

Daughter: But MOMMMMMMMM.

Mom: I said no. Now go put it back.

Daughter: PLEASE MOM!

Mom: No.

Yikes…

Daughter: Proceeds to scream and throw tantrum I WANT THE BARBIEEEEE!!!

Mom: Whining won’t get you what you want.

The daughter sort of calmed down at that point, and the mom starts asking about the prices of things.

“How much are these pants???”

Me: Those pants are $34.

She wanted a discount.

Mom: They were supposed to be ON SALE

Me: Yes, they are on a buy one get one for a penny sale.

Mom: But they rung up $34!

Me: Yes, you have to buy 2 to get the sale.

Mom: Well I only want ONE.

Me: Well, you have to buy 2 to get the sale…

Good grief…

Mom: BUT, like I said, I only want one!

Me: then they will be $34…

Mom: But, I want them on sale.

Me: Again, ma’am, because they are buy one get one for a penny, if you only buy one, there is no sale.

We’re starting to see where the child gets her attitute.

Mom: That’s not fair! I only want one, I should still get the sale price.

Me: I’m sorry, there is really nothing I can do.

Mom: proceeds to scream and throw and throw tantrum

Me: Whining won’t get you what you want….”

Saying the mom’s words back to her was absolutely perfection!
