for those of you who work, like in retail or in customer service, do you have any names or anything for regular customers who are weird or stupid or something?

i've only been at my work for a month and so far i have seen the following people who have been given the following names:

- bacteria betty - she is homeless, but refuses any help offered by people and when people offer to help, she swears at them. but her name comes because of her smell. she stinks so much she has an invisible 10 metre forcefield around her where you have to hold your breath if you go near her.
- goggles - this guy stinks nearly as bad as bacteria betty and the reason he is called goggles is because he always wears goggles around for some reason.
- muffin man - this guy always wears the same clothes and carries a bag of muffins all the time. he has ocd and when he is in the store he will only walk on certain parts of the floor and if someone is standing where he has to go, then he won'tmove until the other person moves.
- edward sissorhands - this dude openly carries sissors around the store to defend himself and tries to sell stolen alcohol to the staff in our store.
- harry handbag - this dude comes in and shops with a womans handbag.

those are the ones i can think of right now. there are probably others too.

Child-Molester Mario: His name is John... but he looks like a child-raping 70's porn star version of Mario. Always brought is bike into our tiny store, parked it in the lobby and insisted his food be wrapped in tin foil... apparently he was homeless and lived up by the falls.

Velma: Not sure what her real name is, but she looks like Velma from Scooby-Doo. She always has a complaint.

Witchy Woman: Her real name is Mischa. But EVERY time she would order, she'd find something to complain about and demand an extra order on top of what she already had. So last time I took her order, I burnt her food on purpose... she never complained again and still always comes back for food.

I've only got one and it's kinda rude but what the heck :P .
We call her the "Piss lady" because well, she smells like she bathes in urine. The second she walks in the store you can smell her and the stink doesn't leave for a few minutes. she only has one tooth and continuosly opens and closes her mouth except for when she smokes.
*shudders*

Edit: YAY 300 posts :P

This one isn't very insulting but we call her "Salt Lady"...
I work at a MOVIE THEATER, and this lady is blind. Like literally, legally, blind. And she comes in every week and asks for popcorn with no salt. So we have to empty out one of the four popcorn machines, and make a new batch for her, with NO SALT. This takes about 10 minutes, so whichever poor bastard employee has to take her order has to hold up his line for 10 minutes, just to serve this BLIND lady at a MOVIE theater.
