Try working drive-through at a Taco Bell.
Night Shift.
Next to a strip of hipster dive bars.

"Welcome to Taco Bell I can take your order whenever you're ready"
I'll have a burrito.
"Uh...What kind of burrito?"
A BUH-REE-TOW. What? Are you fucking retarded or something?

There was one night when these two guys roll up and every time I handed their drinks, they would change their minds. "No, I said Dr. Pepper" "Nah son, I said SPRITE"...after about the fifth time the driver chucked a large soda in my face. I was soaked head to toe. I lost my shit and chucked one of the other sodas at him, into his car. Got him, the passenger, his laptop, camera....everything. The guy and his friend jumped through the drive through window threatening to shoot me with a gun he didn't have. luls. The mexican girls I worked with started screaming in spanish, the passenger started smashing the register and monitor, and my coke-fiend manager locked himself in the office. All I could do was take apart a pair of kitchen scissors to use as a weapon if need be.

Cops got them an hour later, but I had to finish that shift covered in soda, and had to do it with a calculator and notepad.

FUCK customer service.
At least you're still young enough that someone still refers to you as son. It's not much, but hey, you take what you got.

I did about 50 a couple of days ago, they're all still pending. I sent them an email asking whether they wanted a description or an actual sentence (subject and verb), but I haven't gotten a response, so I stopped working on them. I'm sorry, that's probably not much help, just my experience.
I looked at TO and it seems a lot of people have the same issues or just rejections/not getting paid. Probably not gonna touch them because of it :(.

FUCK customer service.
I feel like you and I could swap war stories over a few beers and have an interesting time of it. I faced a similar attack (both on myself and the registers, minus the soda) when I was working at Goodwill. The guy was drunk, and the song on the radio we had playing in-store really set him off ("Lay Down Sally" by Clapton). I feel terrible for him in hindsight because I found out later he was schizophrenic, but at the time, it was terrifying. The only thing scarier was the customer at Godfather's who stalked me from the parking lot during my shift and tried to follow me home afterward....because he was mad that our buffet ended at 3pm and he arrived at 4pm.

Customer service is a wacky, wild world, indeed.

haha, food service. I delivered pizzas in college. One time i came back from a run and there were cop cars everywhere. The manager on duty had a shootout with some dude who tried to rob the store. Several of the drivers I knew were robbed while making deliveries. The owner of one place I worked skipped the country hours before the tax collectors who swarmed over our store and grabbed all the books. Seemed the clown had been collecting our personal income taxes from our checks but not paying any of that money to the government.

There was one night where I looked out the window and cops were surrounding the whole building with guns drawn. It turned out that the new guy in the back hit the silent alarm, and I was too busy (it was only the 2 of us) to answer the phone when I got the call asking for the password.

I know. I'm not doing any more either. If they would just get back with me or approve the ones I did, I would plow through those.

Numerous women I worked with were followed home and generally stalked by some customers that we had to basically threaten outright to get them to stop.

Electronics brings in a certain demographic of complete shitheads.

This was awful. Did the whole thing and it took about 15 mins and at the very end it said I was screened out.
