I thought you folks would enjoy this link. I have worked in retail, and I have to tell you that people are not only rude to retail sales clerks, they're as dumb as a sack of wet pubic hair. Like unbelievably dumb. Here's the link, below is an example of the stupidness that gets recorded.
Why are people like this to the clerks? Where does this sense of entitlement come from?

Me: “Sorry about that, what can I do for you?”
Customer: “Well, these movies aren’t working. They are all scratched.”
Me: “Sorry about that. Pick whatever you want and I’ll exchange them.”
Customer: “Thank you.”
(A few minutes later, a big, flannel clad man walks in.)
Customer’s husband: “My wife was just in here for half an hour! ”
Me: “I’m sorry about that…” *explains situation*
Customer’s husband: “I don’t care! You need to have more than one register open! Where is your manager?!”
Me: “He is in the back. We were suppose to close 45 minutes ago which is why I’m the only one on the register.”
Customer’s husband: “You idiot! I need to see him now!”
Me: “He’ll be here… now calm down!”
Customer’s husband: “YOU MADE MY PREGNANT WIFE STAND IN LINE FOR HALF AN HOUR!”
Me: “Well, sir… maybe you should have been a man and came in here instead of your wife.”
Customer’s husband: *speechless*
