Bar workers, what's the best thing you've had a customer say?

I worked at a bar filling in, and last night two guys came up to the counter and had the following speech:
"Good evening sir. We need 12 shots, of your choosing.
Do not tell us what these shots are. You have no price limit. Please, do your worst."
After I gave them their shots, they bowed farewell. And I didn't see them again the rest of the night.

While this isn't a bar...Was working a late shift at a local hardware store in Canada
A man with blood all over his shirt run at me and demands 'What can I use to get blood out of carpet??' Shocked I pointed to the cleaning isle.
He grabbed the first thing he could see, threw a $20 at me and ran out the door.
To this day I'm still convinced I'm an accessory to murder.

As a fellow Canadian, I have had times when there's been fish, caribou and moose blood in my house, including on the carpet.
Let's pretend you were serving an outdoorsman.

I was 17, working in a grocery store, looking glum while stocking cheese, when an old man dressed all in black walked up to me. He noticed the expression on my face.
He told me that I shouldn't frown all the time, that I should make the most of what I have, that I have a lot left.
He told me that no matter what was bad in my life, I would always have something happy, and that I should think about that.
Then he said "I lost my wife. Thanks for talking with me", and then walked away.

I was a cashier at a grocery store and I had a customer who complained about every single thing.
"That price is wrong" "that's not the right kind of tomatoes" "the grains in this sugar used to be smaller, now they are too big" "I don't like having to select English".
Finally, the woman leaves and I'm upset and a bit flustered.
The next customer in line is a sweet old lady and she smiles and says "Honey, there are two types of people in this world. Those that make your day better when they arrive and those that make your day better when you watch their ass leave."
