I hate it when customers complain about prices. I had a woman call and say she thought my price was high and went home to check FedEx's website. FedEx gave her a lower price. why call me and ask about my prices? Am I trying to cheat you? If you don't like it then don't come back.

People do that at the bookstore I work at all the time.

"I saw a lower price online, I was wondering if I could get that price here..."
"No, of course not. Online stores have lower costs. Amazon.com doesn't have to pay people like me to be nice to you."

Oh ho! So you work at a bookstore jdvn1?

Which one? A used bookstore? A chain bookstore? Local? etc.?

Hmm ... I wasn't quite thinking in THAT sense.

I was. Actually i doubt that would happen. Fist she looks old enough to be my mom but still cute. She smelled of booze.

She called after paying me. It's like Circuit City. If you find a lower price bring it in and we'll match it.

Chain bookstore. Borders.

I've worked there for over a year and a half, and I don't know how much longer I'll be working there.

I'm sure FedEx can afford to have cheaper prices than you anyway.
