If the person complaining has masculine features and a deep voice, I would suggest there were reasonable grounds for someone not paying much attention to misgender. Without witnesses to state that the man was being a tit, this has no chance of going anywhere.

It's not a very common thing but it does happen nowadays, admittedly more in work environments though compared to this case which is more strange if this woman is telling the truth on what the worker said to her.

It's gonna be one of those cases where a misunderstanding has happened and neither side will back down, I doubt that the woman is deliberately lying, and I doubt that the business would want to lose business by being deliberately rude to a customer.
