Years ago, in the early 80's, fresh out of high school I worked in the stock room of a now defunct department store. One day I get a call to load some driveway sealer in a customers car. I show up at the operators window, the customer show me their receipt. they to to the parking lot to retrieve their vehicle. they pull up in a brand new chevy Berlinetta Camaro with white interior. he asks me to put the 3 large buckets of driveway sealer behind the front seats on the floor. I told him that's not a good idea, he insisted that's what he wanted. so that's what I did. I lifted one of the buckets to move it over and there was a black ring on his brand new carpet. he obviously pitched a fit. asking for the manager etc. I had the operator page my manager. He shows up assesses the situation, asks me what happened. I explain to him that I tried to talk him out of it. He looks the guy in the eye and tells him that it's his problem
