Angry Old Woman: “It was this one! See right here! Where any child could see!”

Angry Old Woman: “I know pornography when I see it, and this is very offensive. How could you sell it to young children?”
Manager: “Well, actually our store policy dictates that we won’t sell this to a young child even though it is still legal. How old is your grandson?”
Angry Old Woman: “He’s only sixteen!”
Manager: *rolls eyes* “I don’t want to offend your moral beliefs, Ma’am, but if your sixteen year old grandson wants to look at women in bikinis there is no force on earth that is going to stop it, seriously.”
Angry Old Woman: “The power of Jesus can stop it! The power of Christ should compel you to remove this magazine from your shelves!”
Manager: “Right…real quick, ma’am, before I get back to work, can I ask you a question? Does your grandson have internet access?”
Angry Old Woman: “What does that have to do with anything?”
Manager: “A lot, and I think that the power of Christ should compel you to learn how to look up his browser history. Have a good day.” " |

This reminds me of when I was working at a call center handling incoming calls at a pharmaceutical company. I had one lady call and basically demand that I walk her though fixing her computer since her email wasn't working and she was trying to email us. She didn't even work for the company, she was just emailing to get information about a product.
Every time I suggested a REASONABLE place for her to get help she was like, "Oh no, you can't get out of it like that. I am trying to email YOU, so you need to fix my email!" 5/28/2008 10:09:32 AM |

A customer called Dell customer service about an issue with the cup tray. Apparently He was using the cd drive as cup holder and now it does not open and hold his coffee anymore.

I work for the Division of Marine Fisheries in Florida. I had a fisherman call about three weeks ago. The convo went something like this:
Quote : | " Me: "Marine Fisheries, this is Ryan, how can I help you?"
Morris: "My name's Morris and I'm out of Dania Beach. I've been fishing here for three days now and haven't caught anything."
Me: "Well that stinks, sir, I'm sorry to hear that."
Morris: "Stinks? Stinks? It's your fault!"
Me: "I can't possibly see how, but please elaborate."
Morris: "You government people are hiding all the fish!"
Me: "Where would we hide the fish, sir?"
Morris: "I don't know, probably in some underground bunker somewhere."
Me: "I see. Morris, I'm going to need some info from you about your last three days of fishing. I would like to know where you were off of Dania Beach, what you were fishing for, what bait you were using, and what sort of refreshments you were drinking to keep hydrated out on the water."
Morris: "I was fishing out of sight of land for crappies and bass on my Ranger, with night crawlers, bread, and worm jigs for baits. Me and my wife drink beer, not martinis like some of those other pussies."
Me: "Morris, where are you from originally?"
Morris: "Arkansas."
Me: "Morris, you know that bass and crappie don't live in the ocean, right?"
Morris: "Horseshit! You're just trying to hide the fish again!"
Me: "Have a good day Morris, and be sure not to take your bass boat offshore if the seas are over one foot." " |
I had four margaritas at lunch that day.

Mmm, one or two of those things gives me chills. Retail is not a fun business. Retail combined with tech support is a business that deals with a high rate of employee turnover (and were it not such an easy decision to quit (i.e. if the pay was better) it might just end up having a higher rate of suicides).
K, it's my turn to pick one to quote.
Quote : | "(I was called by the cashier to help an elderly lady out to her car. As I was loading the trunk, she says…)
Elderly Customer: “How do you say it? Muchas gracious?”
Me: “Um, I’m not Hispanic.”
Elderly Customer: “Oh, really? Where are you from?”
Me: “I’m actually from Bangladesh.”
Elderly Customer: “Really? Is that near Mexico?”
Me: “No… it’s actually right next to India.”
Elderly Customer: “Oh, I see…”
(I finish loading her trunk.)
Elderly Customer: “Thanks and aaadios!”
Me: “…”" |
I DO get a kick out of it when people get their geography and cultural knowledge all messed up. I would have a hard time not just laughing at the lady.

Me: “Give me just one minute, and I can go check that for you.”
Husband: “But before you do that, what is it?”
Wife: “I was wondering that too.”
Me: “It’s a headboard.”
Husband: “But what IS it?”
Me: “It’s a headboard. For your bed. You attach it to the top.”
Wife: “But what does it do?”
Me: “It makes your bed look nice.”
Wife: “But does it DO anything?”
Me: “Makes your bed look pretty?”
Husband: “But WHY?”
Me: “Some people like the added touch.”
Wife: “But why should WE buy it?”
Me: “If you think it would look nice in your room, then it would be a great addition to your decor.”
Wife: “You still haven’t told me what it does.”
Me: “Um, it helps your bed match the color scheme of your room.”
Husband: “What’s a color scheme?”
Wife: “Does that have something to do with carpets?”
Me: “Um…kind of. Carpets, curtains, bedspread, furniture. People generally like them to match. The overall color is called the color scheme.”
Wife: “Oh. I had heard of that, but no one ever told me what it was.”
Husband: “So we would need a real bed for this?”
Me: “Well what do you have?”
Husband: “A futon.”
Me: “A headboard wouldn’t work with that.”
Wife: “So I can’t get this?”
Me: “Well you could, but you wouldn’t be able to use it with your bed.”
Wife: “Why not?”
Me: “It only attaches to a regular mattress bed frame.”
Wife: “Oh. But what does it do?”
Me: “Let me go find someone that can better help you.”
(I ran off to find my manager because I couldn’t contain the laughter anymore. It took her 15 minutes to explain to them what exactly a headboard was, and why you couldn’t use it with a futon. We’re pretty sure they still didn’t really get it.)" |

I work at a gourmet sandwich company. We can make sandwiches for delivery, pickup, or sit-down. We often get calls from a lot of stoners that want their sandwiches delivered. Probably for “munchies.” It’s about 4pm on Saturday when I get this call.

Stoner 1: “What?”
Me: “Would you like to order something?”

Me: “…Okay, what would you like?”
Stoner 1: *tells me his order*
Me: “Would you like anything else with that?”
Stoner 1: “Yeah… get me a cookie.”
(At this point, I hear a plethora of other stoners in the background.)
Stoner 2: “Cookies!? Where?”
Stoner 1: *laughing* “Dude, I’m on the phone with the cookie company!”

Stoner 3: “Four cookies! I want two!”
Stoner 2: “SIX COOKIES!”
Me *trying not to laugh* “Okay, sir, will that be all?”
Stoner 2: “Yeahhhhhh.”
Me: “Will that be for pickup or delivery?”
Stoner 2: “Delivery…” *gives address*
Stoner 1: “DUDE, WHAT IF SHE’S A NARC?”
Stoner 2: “Sh*t! You know that address I just gave you? I lied about it!”
(Now I decide to have a little fun with them, considering they wasted my time.)
Me: “Okay, but as a little treat, I’m going to have it delivered anyway. My car will be the one with red and blue flashing lights that reads P-O-L-I-C-E on the side.”
Stoner 2: “A car with lights? That’s awesome!”
Stoner 1: “Dude, she means the police!”
Stoner 2: “SH*T!” *click*
(We ended up delivering to them anyway, because TECHNICALLY they never canceled their order. Our delivery guy came back with the full order, telling us that someone answered the door to tell him no one was home.) " |

Me: “Ma’am, you just gave me a twenty and 10 singles to buy milk. It’s only $2.99.”
Lady: “Well that’s not what the sign says! it says 29 dollars!”
Me: “But ma’am, you’re paying more money than it actually costs.”
Lady: “I don’t care how much it costs! Just do your job and give me my f**king milk for 29 dollars!”
Me: “Okay, If that’s what you want…” *gives her a dollar back*
Lady: “Thank you! If you had just done your job I would’ve been out of here by now!”
Me: “Have a great day!”" |

(My pizza place recently stopped accepting checks, due to a large number of returned checks. We have a large sign in the lobby, and a smaller sign at the register.)
Customer: “What?! I can’t write a check?”
Me: “I’m sorry, we no longer accept checks. We simply get too many returned for insufficient funds.”
Customer: ”But I was going to write a check…”
Me: ”We accept credit cards, or you can use your debit card for that checking account.”
Customer: ”I can’t use my debit card! I don’t have enough money in my account!”
(And THAT is why we no longer take checks!) " |

Me: “That’s very strange ma’am, as our machines accept all of the memory cards that I’ve ever heard of.”
Woman: “Well, your machines are obviously old! My husband bought me an EXPENSIVE camera, because I only like the best! You people need to get better machines! My memory card won’t even FIT in any of the slots!”
Me: “May I see your memory card? Maybe I can figure out what’s wrong.”
(Woman hands me her memory card huffily.)
Me: “Um… ma’am, I don’t know how to tell you this, but this is your camera battery.”
Woman: “…”
