I was at the grocery store and some guy took the last 2% milk and had a full blown tantrum.
Someone else came in and found more behind the crate and he laughed it off but most were unimpressed.
Guy got fired at an old job for repeatedly leaving the doors unlocked after his evening shift – we worked in tech with lots of pricey equipment.
I found out he was fired when his foot suddenly went through the door of the boss’ office. When they opened the door he was writhing on the floor, beat-red, crying and screaming.
Some guy I saw at a pizza place, like one of those build your own, was turning red from yelling because they ran out of mushrooms or something like that
Anybody protesting regardless of their views. Be an adult and work for change. Like actually work. Don’t be a petulant child and have a temper tantrum.
Saw a woman rip the hearing aids out of her husband’s ear, while her cop son watched, while trying to intimidate me into taking them back.(company policy states I can’t accept returns, the Dr has to do it)
My previous manager got so upset his voice turned into Mickey Mouse. He micromanaged himself into a corner and could not get out. It was everyone’s fault that he was irritated. He could not see the fact that promoting the best employees to dictators, as opposed to actual leads, was causing mass insubordination.
i was at a restaurant today and these people where complaining and stomping their feet saying “NO I WONT PAY I FEEL OFFENDED AUHAUAUAHAUA”….. i had to stop myself from laughing my ass off because it went completely silent. and then they left so i burst out laughing.
When I worked retail a customer approached my register and I said “hey did you find everything ok?” He threw his items on my counter and ignored me. Rang him up and then he demanded I call the manager. Manger comes over and talks to him and he leaves. The manager proceeds to tell me that this guy was offended because I didn’t say good morning to him. Few days later I’m pulled into the office by a different manager because the same guy called corporate and reported me for not saying good morning to him.
An older woman, probably 70ish traveling with her even older husband sitting in front of me on a plane. She ordered an alcoholic drink. When the flight attendant brought her her drink she demanded her card back, started ranting and raving, calling the flight attendant a thief. It went on and on and on, at one point she started crying. The thing is the flight attendant hadn’t even asked for payment yet, and definitely hadn’t taken her card anywhere. This poor flight attendant had to have been the most patient person on earth, she handled it with so much grace. Eventually the flight attendant found the screaming woman’s card on the floor under her seat where she had apparently dropped it. She did apologize somewhat sheepishly, and was very quiet the rest of the flight. Meanwhile the husband never acknowledged the situation at all, just sat there placidly while his wife screamed her head off.
I witnessed a man board an airplane drunk and quickly fall asleep. At the point when they announced we’d be landing soon, tray tables up, he woke up and asked a flight attendant for coffee. She said “sorry no too late we’re about to land” and he lost is marbles swearing at her about needing coffee and calling her names the entire rest of the flight.
When we landed and pulled up to the gate the captain asked everyone to stay seated and local PD boarded and escorted him away. He acted v confused about why in the world he was in trouble.
my ex as i was cleaning things out of our house in preparation to sell it
the house had been mostly cleared but there were a few items left, including a couch which i had gotten used from craigslist – it was okay but neither of us was going to use it
i had shoved it outside for the just junk truck to pickup and she saw it outside and flipped out; swearing left and right and saying it wasn’t for me to make the decision; i chuckled on the inside – it’s a thing, it can be replaced – it had been sitting unused for over a month and neither of us had a need for it in our new places
In high school I worked for a painting crew painting houses in our small town.
My 2nd or 3 Summer and we had pretty much the same crew and our boss was a teacher that had done this for years. Early June and we had a college age guy join that I sort of knew.
It was his first job and had never been told “no”. We usually listened to the radio that generally everyone liked. He kept changing it to a station nobody liked, was a terrible worker, didn’t comprehend that this was actually work and being the new guy didn’t put him on a pedestal (quite the opposite actually). One other on the job site told him not to touch his radio again and he looked amazed he wasn’t getting his way. Literally started stomping around and pretty sure he wasn’t getting crying a little. He just walked home and I’ve heard even years later he has mental health issues and basically never grew up )he’s over 40 now).
Later found out he completely wasted money and time that first year of college and his parents were getting a divorce. They were very well off and spoiled him for years. Reality can be a real bitch sometimes and he couldn’t deal.
Kind of felt bad but took it as a warning not to slack off all the time.
One of my former managers at my old job refused to talk to me for over two months— because I didn’t immediately drop everything to hand her lids for our side dish containers in the middle of a huge lunch rush. I overheard her ranting to one of the other managers (who also happened to be her son) about how I never helped her, etc. Thankfully he stood up for me and pointed out that I always helped her stock, unload the truck, etc.
Used to work at a deli. We ran out of a certain kind of ham. A customer… who looked like an evil Ned Flanders… requested said ham. I explained the situation. He turned an alarming shade of purple and, in full shakey voice, screamed at me, “YOU HAVE RUINED MY LABOR DAY!!!” (It was right before Labor Day)
Then he stormed off, slamming his shopping cart into several other customers shopping carts in the process.
A lady complaining that the piece of chicken didn’t have chicken, that it was just fried breading. I thought, “Ma’am, you’re at McDonald’s. You shouldn’t expect Michelin-starred fried chicken.”
I witnessed a woman storm into a Domino’s Pizza, push past the other people waiting to pick up carry out orders and slam a Pizza Hut box down on the counter, shouting that it was the “worst fucking pizza she’d ever tasted!” The poor kid working looked terrified and said that she’d get the manager. The manager, who was all of about 20, came out, looked at the box and said “Yeah. Pizza Hut sucks. I don’t know what you want me to do about it.” Chaos ensued.
At film school, we had a teacher that was a little too full of himself.
We were going to learn how to analyse and review a movie in one of his classes, and he made a huge mistake by choosing one of his own movies for us to work with.
That didn’t go well, since aforementioned movie was a…well, to put it nicely, a steaming pile of shit.
Well, we did our work, and we all put some very well founded and well worded and written criticism in our works, and handed our stuff over, while mentally doing the sign of the cross. We knew that this wasn’t going to go down well.
The next time we had a lesson with that teacher, he proceeded with having a full blown mega meltdown in front of the whole class, to the point where he literally started tearing up our reviews and tossing them all over the room, which he then practically ran out of while raging, screaming and crying.
We didn’t hear anything for the next couple of days, while the managing director and the leadership looked into the case.
Then we were told that he had been fired on the spot after raging and screaming at the managing director after our class.
It turned out that the man had a severe drinking problem, and that the management was already getting ready to pull the trigger on him – our reviews were just the famous straw that broke the camel’s back.
During the pandemic I seen some dude outside a liquor store throw a wittle tantrum because only 2 people was allowed at a time inside, he punched the hood of his car swearing, I laughed my ass off.
Gotta throw myself into the ring here. Someone hit my house with their car while I was out of town. MIL was there but she’s about as useful as a salad fork. I was outside looking at the damage, realizing there were no witnesses to the crash, and I literally jumped up and down with anger, while shaking my fists.
My wife called me out on it immediately. “Did you just jump like a fucking child?” I said I did, regretted it immediately, and went inside.
Miami airport in December: a large man in his 50s screaming then falling to the ground shrieking like a toddler after missing his flight because they lock the doors 15 minutes before departure or whatever. He threw himself to the ground and began sobbing loudly and then angry screamed again and then shrieked again. This went on for like 20 minutes before the airline staff whispered that if he does not quiet down he’s going to leave in handcuffs.
I was once blocked and then verbally attacked on social media by a professional hockey player, who somehow mistook me for his ex-wife’s friend.
Never mind that 1) I’m a nobody, 2) I don’t even live in the same country, and 3) I didn’t even know he was married.
He never admitted to his mistake and his verbal attack led his fans to come after me as well.
Today, he has been exposed to be one of those QAnon conspiracy theorists, promoting misinformation and false news. So I’m not losing sleep over what happened. He was always destined to behave off the rails.
It is still a hell of an adult tantrum though. Even if I were his ex-wife’s friend, why does it even matter? Is she not allowed to have friends? Is he not allowed to interact with her friends? I just don’t get it. I can only assume that he could be one of those “controlling husband” types.
Old dude at my work (i work in a gym) couldn’t take the fact that i told him that using is phone with volume on full blast was inconsiderate/rude for others and that he needed earphones. He was SO offended he filed a complaint to my manager, to HR, and even putted a 4 paragraph google review on the gym page asking for my demission.
I was at a car rental at the airport. I guess they didn’t have the exact vehicle this woman wanted, so she sat on a bench and wept theatrically while her (presumably) husband and son watched awkwardly. I couldn’t help but think she probably does this for any small setback. Vacationing with her must be rough.
When I was training to work at a tanning salon we would ask for the persons name then look them up in our system. One woman came in who had a note in her account that she regularly uses stolen credit cards. When asked to leave she freaked out yelling that she would never steal and we should just run her card. Sure enough her card declined and we had to threaten to call the police to get her to leave.
When I would not refill a prescription for alprazolam for a brand new patient who had been off of it for months. She began screaming and crying in the office.
i used to work at a tech store and a guy threw a smoothie across the store when my manager asked him to stop cursing since kids were within earshot (i believe he also wanted his phone replaced)
People will try to return things that are clearly abused or heavily used. Stuff like worn out shoes, stained clothes, or broken electronics that look like they’ve survived a war. Then they act shocked and furious when the store refuses to take it back.
Lady with a shit Ton of Botox in her face was so pretentious to the phone store guy trying to help her. Kept complaining the whole time and was so obviously passive aggressive and rude. I was like you know your being helped right
Person freaked the hell out yelling and screaming about the cost of renting a moving truck. They expected to just walk into one place and rent a truck on the spot and for it to be a lower cost than it was. They did not shop around or make a reservation. They only mentioned looking at one other place to ‘try’ to rent a truck as if they had 0 other options. I came home and googled rental trucks. Texted that person’s roommate the sites to go check prices at various places all at once. They also drive like a maniac when they are pissed off. We have a large driveway where people walk to the dumpster and other cars turn onto/off of driveway. They tore the hell out of here. They haven’t killed/hurt anyone yet…
Lady came in, very rude from the start. I got rattled and made a mistake or two, pissing her off further. As she left I said, “Have a nice day!”
She was incandescent with rage. Whirled around and bellowed, “I WILL NOT HAVE A NICE DAY! I WILL NOT!” Stormed out the door. Thing is, they’re double doors and we used to keep one locked because the wind would blow it open otherwise.
So she slammed into the locked door, grabbed it and tried to wrench it open. I was legit worried she’d do damage. Flailed her tiny arms around and screamed profanity at the heavens before shoving her way through the other door.
I was in a Dairy Queen and a man busted through the doors holding a spoon (he had just ordered through the drive through) and he goes “HEY! 😡Do you guys have any REAL SPOONS???” They have two different sizes of spoons at DQ depending on the size of your blizzard. The guy at the counter goes “sorry sir we ran out of the tall ones” and he goes “WELL YOU SHOULD TELL PEOPLE THAT BEFORE THEY ORDER!!!”

The Orange Clown’s tantrum when he lost the previous US elections became a worldwide phenomenon so I got to see it so I’m going with that.

When you get ppls pronoun wrong or assume their genders, they cry so much

Trump takes the sweep for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place…..he is the definition of a whiny bitch.
Guess guy got the wrong pizza or something, but just started screaming and threw the whole thing on the ground and walked out cussing up a storm

A coworker who is the biggest pussy I’ve met.
My boss was being fired, so he called his boss an “Asian Hitler”, and then shook everyone’s hand.
Thing is, his boss was super cool while my boss was the type that when you called him an asshole (because he was one) he’d say thank you.

Worked at a home decor/ antique store. Woman came in with her husband and he literally pouted and stomped his feet while whining he wanted to leave.
Trump seems like a perfect fit for this post.
the one with the President of Ukraine in the Oval Office being asked why he didn’t wear a suit, if he even owned a suit, and if he’d said thank you.

wow, last time I saw a question like this was on a youtube compilation video! kinda sad I don’t have an answer for it this time
Pine Tar Game
Happened to me many years ago.
Lady came in, very rude from the start. I got rattled and made a mistake or two, pissing her off further. As she left I said, “Have a nice day!”
She was incandescent with rage. Whirled around and bellowed, “I WILL NOT HAVE A NICE DAY! I WILL NOT!” Stormed out the door. Thing is, they’re double doors and we used to keep one locked because the wind would blow it open otherwise.

It was pretty amazing.
