I've worked at three hardware stores and each one had one of these ladies.

Seriously, one just spent like half an hour ranting to me about how she thinks the local gas and electric company is conspiring against her.

I worked at a grocery store once and had an old lady come in and throw an absolute tantrum because we were out of a certain cookie.

She literally stomped up and down like a toddler throwing a hissy fit and shouting "I WANT IT!" "I DROVE 30 MINUTES FOR THESE COOKIES!"

I think my manager just gave her some uncooked dough for free.
