The Store Manager would have responded to her sooner, but he was too busy texting someone...

Pronunciation: mal-conn-ten-dant
Sentence: I am in a hurry but the staff in this shop are all such malcontendants there is no one who will serve me.
Etymology: Combination of malcontent and attendant. First used by Mark Twain to describe a particularly slovenly, family-run restaurant he visited in Mississippi. The restaurant gained notoriety and indeed some short lived success until it was forcibly closed by the owners who had a sense of humour failure when even physical abuse of the clientele wasn't enough to deter the hordes of malcontent-watchers.
