rude owner to customers

Posted Sat August 4, 2012 4:30 pm, by Tiffany W. written to All About Home

There was a car show going on. I (who's 8 1/2 months pregnant) was with my family. It ended up getting too hot for us girls to be outside. The.guys continued to look at cats. Well my stepmom, 10 yr old sister and myself went into this store to cool off and to look around. Its my.dad and stepmoms favorite store. I have never been there but wanted to purchase a few things if I found anything since I am.expecting soon. Anyways, we were in there for about 10 mins looking around I needed to.use the.restroom so.they.sat down.on some of the furniture to wait for me. Then my.little sister needed to.go so.I sat to.wait before we looked around again. But the husband of the owner came over to.us and started yelling at us saying we were being rude so.he's going to be rude and told us to.get the heck out of.the store because we havdnt bought anything.yet and were sitting down. He then.yelled at my little sister who.was on her way to the restroom to get out and leave. She wasn't able to use the.restroom. I had full intentions on possibly.buying something.but since we were looking.for.10 mins then.used the.restroom and not bought anything we were supposably rude. He was not nice.in the least.bit or considerate to.a child or is grown adults for.the matter. So in the end he threw us out.

They need to be more considerate. We were still looking around the store to buy something. 10 mins wasn't long enough. Also, if he didn't want us sitting on furniture.he.could've politely had said so.or.have signs up that.say.not to sit on furniture. He had no.right to yell at us.or.a child and say the things.he.said. I think they.need to.go.to.classes to.learn better.customer service skills. An apology would be nice too.

I'm guessing....... by sarahsmile Posted Wed August 8, 2012 @ 12:45 PM that since it was so hot out, that maybe a lot of people came in to get out of the heat. I'll also guess that a lot of people sat down on the 'For Sale' furniture without any intention of buying said furniture.

Posted Tue August 7, 2012 @ 10:37 AM Yes, he was rude. But I'll bet he had a lot of people attending the car show using his store as a pit stop/shade rest area.

Reply exactly. it's the difference between a real customer and a loiterer really by PepperElf Tue August 7, 2012 @ 4:11 PM If it was hot enough by McJohn Posted Sat August 4, 2012 @ 10:54 PM that you needed to rest than you were probably sweating, who wants a bunch of sweaty people sitting on furniture that is for sale??? Reply I had full intentions on possibly.buying something by Bill R. Posted Sat August 4, 2012 @ 6:03 PM Tiffany W., He should not have yelled at you. A firm "Our bathrooms are for customers only" might have worked with those thoughts supplemented by signage. I just glanced up at the tail end of your letter. You were sitting on furniture that this guy had for sale? Not the right thing to do so most likely this was the issue that pushed him over the edge. BillR.
