I love reading stories that people encounter with customers or being a customer yourself, sometimes it gives me a good laugh and a helpful way on how to help if i was put in that situation. So if anyone has any recent stories/confrontations/etc. with customers, please let us hear them!

Alright.... I have this one customer...whenever she leaves and I go back to clean the bed and empty the garbage, there is always chewed up heart stickers in the trash can. I mean like 10, not 2. I really dont wanna know what she is doing with the stickers, but it is every time!! Some people are soooo wierd!!

I can only think of the one guy that came in last night with his gf. While she was telling me what bed she wanted, he was hopping around the lobby and slapping her on the butt. He could be the poster child for ADD!

Some of our snooty old lady customers "need" or want, like 15 F-ing minutes to change and get ready in the bed.

We run on a timer system (aka Helios) and we set lotion/change time to 6 minutes, then at any point you can hop in the bed and turn it on...if you take more than 6 minutes (which is totally unreasonable) then it cuts into your tan time.

We get about 2 customers a week that ask us to extend it by another 6 minutes...its terrible.

I have a customer who comes in and talks about her job for about 15 minutes. The one day she told me about her husband"s ex. The ex wife cheated on the husband with the COUPLE down the street. And if that wasn"t enough, she went on with the details. YUCK!
