Favorite LFS "CUSTOMER" STORIES ...

I almost gave employees at a LFS a story to share. When I first saw green tiger barbs, I thought they were tiger barbs with some sort of skin condition. It didn't help things that they were mixed in with normal tigers. Lukily, I kept my mouth shut. I wouldn't be surprised if other people have made the same mistake. Not a good looking fish, if you ask me.
Well, today I had a guy come in and was insisting on buying the stand from our 55 gallon display tank.
He didn't want to buy a new stand, he wanted to buy a used one to save money. He said he would give us his metal stand in return.
So, he wanted me to dismantle our 55 gallon show tank, sell him the stand for below retail value, and then set everything back up on his used metal stand. I had to say no about 6 times before he finally left.

He would have to had paid me proper money to do that, not worth the time..... and effort. tight ass.Goanna;2731740; said:

But a bit of money helps LOL.
Here's my two laughs for the day.
1. Two young girls come in and ask for one comet. While bagging it they notice the crickets. They ask what they eat. Another customer behind them chimes in and says, apples, potatoes, etc. The girls turn to her and in a serious tone ask, "So do you have crickets at home?" Keeping a straight face the lady breaks the news to them that they are food and not pets.
2. Pretty girl walks in with a little puppy. Puppy runs into me, stands on my feet and begs to be petted. I talk to her for a moment and then ask, "How old?". She gives me a look and says, "The dog?" Just had to walk away.

Actually that's the first question I ask when I start talking to a young pretty girl... Then ask for a photo id for verification.
