I've spent about a decade in the service industry and I'm still appalled by customers from time to time.

I'm mostly desensitized to their piggishness but there are days when I just don't have the energy to deal with the aftermath of their bullshit.

I've had to clean piss off the toilet seat(s) in the ladies' room just to use the facilities (note: when you work retail, you pretty much wait until you can't stand it anymore - too much to do, too little time) countless times; I've found strange and unidentifiable bodily fluids and foodstuffs(? I assume) in several other places on the salesfloor. I'm not really bothered by it in general. But some days.... some days....

I don't understand how someone can be that indecisive while food shopping. Like if you're at the register and need to cut some items because the order is too expensive it's understandable but how the hell do you get a gallon of milk and then leave it on top of a pile of oranges on the opposite side of the store? What happens in that time that suddenly you don't need/want milk?
Then there's the mountain of **** that's ultimately left wherever liquor is held. The things people just leave everywhere in favor of other things or just due to flat out laziness .... just unforgivable.
