You never really know what’s going to set a customer off.

One cashier found that out after a man asked for help finding beef liver.

She was going to help him, but before she knew it, another coworker offered to go look for it.

But when that coworker asked one simple question, the man started yelling at both of them.

A few seconds later, he changed his mind about everything and stormed out of the store.

Read on to see how everything played out.

Customer randomly starts yelling at my coworker and I while we try to help him

Two other coworkers and I were on till at the time. It wasn’t very busy, and we were waiting patiently for customers to come up so we could serve them.

This guy walks up between my till and my coworker’s and asks me if I can help him. He tells me that he’s looking for a liver product in the meat department, but he can’t seem to find it. Since there was nobody working in the meat department at that time, he was wondering if we could help look for it or get someone else who could.

I had asked him what type of liver he was looking for specifically. He told me it was beef liver.

By that time, my coworker piped up and was going to offer to go and help him look. She asked me, as sort of a casual verification, whether the liver was in the meat department.

Suddenly, his whole demeanor changed.

Before I could say anything, the man suddenly got super annoyed and started to yell at my coworker and me. He threw his stuff on my coworker’s till and said to just ring him through, but before she could even do that, he changed his mind and said he didn’t even want it and stormed out.

During the situation, I had called for a manager to come up. Unfortunately, the manager arrived seconds after the guy had left.

He asked what happened, and all three of us cashiers reiterated everything that happened. Of course, since the guy was already gone, there wasn’t anything we could do about it.

It was a pretty stressful situation for all of us, but we were able to laugh it off and continue on with the rest of our shifts. Still, we were all pretty shaken up.

Wow! That pretty much came out of left field.

Let’s see how the readers over at Reddit feel about what happened.

This person thinks it’s easy to see why he got insulted.

They could do this.

Here’s why this person thinks he was upset.

Good point.

That guy clearly came in with a short fuse.

In fact, the employees barely had time to figure out what he needed before he started yelling at them.

Then, just as quickly, he gave up on the whole thing and walked out.

At least they were able to laugh about it afterward, but that still makes for a long shift.
