I am not an overly large man, but i do exceed the measurements on dress clothes found in the normal stores. I needed a new pair of dress pants and went into the local Geek and Freak (Big and Tall) store. I was greeted by two petite young ladies that looked at me like i walked into a women's bathroom.
"Can i help you?" the one asks.
I responded "I need a pair of dress pants. I am a 38 inch waist but have thick thighs and a fat ass"
"We can't help you here" the other pipes in "We start at 38. Go to Jack Frasier, you will find pants there."
"I do not fit in thier pants. My thighs will flatten out the pleats" i answer back.
"Oh, is that right?" She says, disinterested.
Then both of them just give me this blank stare and don't move or say anything. I did not want them to dote on me or go out of thier way to satisfy me (a tongue bath after store hours would be o.k.), but i didn't want to have to beg just to try on some clothes, so i left.
As i reached the door they said "Good bye, come again"
How has customer service let you down?

You wear a 38, they start at 38 but they can't help you? They must be former McDonalds employees.

Usually heard in I.T. after they have been unable to help you: "Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help you!"

Well, I *am* a rather large woman, but that's ok with me. One day, I was shopping for a birthday gift for my aunt and decided that she'd appreciate some clothes. So I went to the store and was looking around, checking prices 'cuz I'm cheap frugal. Every employee in the store approached me one at a time and asked if I was finding everything I needed. I replied in the affirmative. Finally, one woman had apparently seen enough.
"Um, you know, we only carry up to size 3x."
"Yeah, I see that. I'm shopping for a gift for my aunt."
"Ooooh, ok, and so then what size is your aunt?"
"She's a 1x or 2x. I can't quite decide."
"Right. Maybe she should come here with you and she can try stuff on."
"Um, no, it's a gift. And she lives in a different state....
This Shakespeare went on for way too long. I dunno if they thought I was giving their elite store a bad name by having my fat ass disgrace their clothing line or what, but they reeeeeally wanted me gone! So I stayed extra long and called a couple friends while I shopped.

If you still need people to help you get dressed then there's a bigger problem than just finding the right sized pants.
When I first moved to Canada I got really annoyed with it and told them, yes you can help me because I'm a Frosttard who can't dress himself.
I only give my sales to the person who asks if they can help and then leaves me alone when I say no. The overzealous ones I get running around the store for me getting stuff I don't want and never try on.
Clothes shopping is so stressful

I'm short. Like point-and-laugh short. I missed being a certifiable midget by 3 inches. (Seriously)
I was shopping for clothes at one of those middle-class stores that think they're better than they are, when a lady walked up to me and said "I'm sorry, little girl, but we only sell big girl clothes here."
I smiled sweetly and looked her up and down, "That's okay, I guess only fat people shop here."

Wait, 38 waist is considered plus sizes? You clearly aren't shopping at the right places. I.E. Walmart.
