Some customers just want to talk, even if they’re repeating the same thing over and over again.

When one woman wouldn’t stop complaining about an employee’s lack of manners, her husband decided he’d heard enough and promptly put her in her place.

You’ll want to read on for this one!

The time a customers husband told her to shut up.

I worked at a local grocery store for eight years.

One day, I was working at the checkstands when I saw a couple coming towards me.

Then, the incident happened.

A fellow employee was coming back from break and happened to squeeze between the wife and a display case, as he was late to get back.

I hear this lady sigh and loudly exclaim, “Excuse you!”

Now, I can understand where she was coming from, as the least the guy could do was say excuse me, but there was enough room for him to get by without nudging her or anything.

But this lady just wouldn’t let it go.

Anyway, this couple comes through my lane, and as I’m ringing them out, the lady just keeps going on and on about how rude the kid was.

I’m not kidding when I say she keeps saying, “He didn’t even say ‘excuse me,'” repeatedly. The entire time I’m checking them out.

But an intervention came from an unexpected place.

Apparently, the husband had had enough because he just turns to her and loudly says, “Would you just shut up already?!”

I had to try really hard not to laugh as he said this, and it earned him a death glare, but she finally stopped talking about how rude that boy was.

Definitely one of the more entertaining conversations I’ve witnessed at that place.

Dramatic much, lady?

What did Reddit make of all this?

You can overhear all sorts of drama from the checkout line.

Sometimes couples manage to keep each other’s manners in check.

Some people are just way too overly dramatic.

Some relationships just aren’t meant to be.

Her husband saved the day with a refreshing slice of honesty that echoed what everyone else around them was already thinking.

For once, the employee didn’t even have to say a word!
