(The Customer is) Not Always Right/Tear Jerker

From Not Always Right
"Dad: Oh, don’t worry about it. I hate my life anyway."
 * While Your Mileage May Vary, you really gotta feel bad for this guy.


 * This customer. The tear-jerker part is a bit of Fridge Horror.
 * Whatever can be said about the current conflict, people coming home from it only to deal with this is depressing.
 * This poor little girl, whose mother considers her less important than a credit card. She even tells the workers who watched her daughter to say it's her daughter that's lost next time so she knows not to rush.
 * A minor one here.
 * It might not exactly be a tear jerker, but it's hard not to feel sorry for this guy/girl.
 * This one doesn't sound sad until you put it in hindsight. You can bet this little girl's gonna grow up a Spoiled Brat.

From Not Always Romantic

 * Your Mileage May Vary on this one too, but at the least, it is sad.
 * Hard not to feel sorry for this poor guy.
