Had a lady in my store yesterday insisting that we had an item because google said so
Those people are fun the first and second time. After that you start getting a certain attitude towards them.
After working retail for more than a decade... Those people deserve it. The type of person to argue with an employee about whether they carry something or not solely because Google said so, are the quintessential Karen. They deserve every bit of unhelpfulness right back at them for the misery they sow everywhere they go.
Man, I went to like 3 different Targets to find an item because the company that made the item said those Targets carried it. None of them did.
Of course, nothing is better than a store saying they carry an item when they in fact do not. That happens pretty frequently when I'm looking for something specific. Not out of stock mind you, but they will never have stock.
