I was a store manager for many, many years and some people just enjoyed giving me shit for whatever didn't gear up to their entire majestic satisfaction.
One evening, this big woman comes in, she had a problem with a TV she'd bought from us (was more like her not understanding how the thing worked than a defect) and she starts emptying out on me..And on, and on, and on, and on...
I let her yell at me, wiggling my toes and feeling that my pressure is building up.
She starts threatening to bring the TV back unless someone goes to her home to "fix it".
I tell her fine, as I walk across the counter to where she is and put a hand on her shoulder, telling her it'll be fine, with a smile.
As she starts walking towards the door, I follow her and start mimicking her behind her back. Walking like her with a big fat belly, making faces and giving her the fingers from both hands, imitating Mr Bean....

....only to notice that both our reflections are seen in the store window facing us. She was seeing me doing this the whole way through.
Employees behind the counter were killing themselves laughing. I just froze and turned around like nothing happened.
She never said a word. Sent a guy to her home to "fix" a TV that didn't have a problem and never saw her again. Wonder why.
Lesson 101. Look for window reflections before doing something shameful and stupid...
