I haven't really encountered this trope very often, and usually when I have it's overlapping with the "an average person refuses to believe someone who claims to have seen monsters/aliens/etc." trope, which is entirely reasonable. Perhaps because of that, it doesn't really bother me.

Rich's attitude, though, is pretty annoying, particularly in the final panel.

It is canon that Susan can use her hammers on anybody, for any reason.  I expect that the unseen 4th panel is Rich getting the snot hammered out of him.

It is annoying in shows when adults won't listen to kids, bosses  won't listen to employees, doctors won't listen to nurses & leaders of all types won't listen to anyone who disagrees.

It's even worse in real life.

By the way, I think Susan is professional enough to avoid hammering a customer while on the clock

"Hey Mr. Tensided  I need to take a short break"

"OK Susan"

<wham-wham-wham>

"OK I'm back"
