i remember 1 the old shop i worked at i used to run it during the week for a couple months because my boss was ill
i was only 17 at the time but had been in that store fore over 4 years so dodgy customers got the boot quick
anyway a guy came into the shop with a blueface peacock cichlid aulonocara baenschi he said '' gday mate would you be interested in this fish'' i said ''ye maybe how much wer you after for it'' ohh dno how much you wana give me so i looked on the wholesale list ( aulonocara baenschi 12cm $15 ) this was the same size but a particulaly nice fish so i said ''how does $25 sound'' he said mate you tryin to #%&* rip me off so calmly i said no this is a fair price i can get them for $15 but seeing as this is already hier anda nice fish thats my offer then he just goes ^%&* off mate this is worth atleast $100 so then i started to get a lil annoyed and said well go to anuthershop and see wat they say i may be young but im not a &^$* idiot so i think your taking the piss then he just started going phyco so i went and stood behind the counter with our guard dog who didnt seen to like him shouting at me so i just said mate get out and dont come back he left
he returned the next day
politely i said hows it going
then he said sorry about going nuts and that he was having a bad day
now hes one of my best customers
that was more of a bad customer story but all the stories reminded me of this
