An older gentleman came in with his wife and started giving me grief over some glasses that had clearly seen their best days. When I explained to him there wasn't anything I could do for him at no charge but I would be more than willing to help him pick out a new pair he preceded to get up in my face and tell me he ought to come across the counter and slap me silly. I was roughly 8 months pregnant at the time. Needless to say my co-workers intervened and nicely escorted the patient from the store. His wife later came back and apologized.
you work with great people. I see the wife is the moral authority in that relationship.
