I went in to a LGS last year to get 2 boxes of 9x18 makarov. I could see them on the shelf behind the counter, so I asked for them _and_ pointed at them. He walked over to the other end of the shelves and grabbed 2 of the most expensive 9x19 that he had.
"No, I want the 9x18 makarov. Two of the silver bear ones."
"You're gun's probably a 9 luger. It's a common mistake."
"No, it's a CZ-82. It's definitely 9x18."
"I know you're trying to save some money, but these are what you need" while walking the two boxes he grabbed over to the register. I asked to talk to the manager and he refused to get him for me. One of the other customers overheard what was going on, told me to hold on a sec, pulled out his phone, and called the manager. The other customer was related to the manager somehow. The manager came flying through the door to the back room like his hair was on fire.
The soon-to-be-ex-employee told him that I asked for the 9x19 and that I wasn't sure whether I was getting the right loads. The other customer chimed in with what really happened. The employee was then told to clock out and grab his stuff on the way out, with many creative expletives thrown in. I got the correct ammo and went shooting that weekend.
I went back about two weeks later and the same employee who had been asked to leave was standing behind the counter. I turned right back around and haven't been back since.
