funny customer

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Here's another quicky. We had a customer ask if they should use algaecide, meant for a spa, and if they needed to use bromine tabs for a pond. They thought that the bromine tabs would help keep the water clean? I don't want to even know. They figured that keeping a pond with fish in it was the same as keeping a jacuzzi running.

Side note: as I mentioned it was a hardware store I worked in, and the most common question we would get that made us HATE OUR LIVES was "Do y'all have any tools???"
 
Hahahhah- I love WyldFya's pump story... hahahi would have liked to see that system in action... quite the conversation piece to have in the living room :)
 
sorry i still cant quite get over how you cannot know whether it is salt or freshwater. you either put salt into water or dont. if you get it from the sea, its saltwater. that is so stupid
 
yea there are quite a few questions that make me hate my job:
(i'll emphasize their language also ;))
"say mayne ya'll got some sharks?"
"what's the meanest fish ya'll have?"
"these here fightin fishes?"
"mayne i want a pacu and an oscar. i wanna put them in a 10 gallon and watch them fight. i like that action."

:swear: :swear: :swear:
GAHHHHH. i could kill 'em!!!!

But from a water proof area, or far enough away from the blast zone, cause lets face it, it is just too cold up here for that kinda action.
 
I still think the fake fish would be the only way to not know if it is salt or fresh water!

Don't you just wanna reply "Why don't we lock you and your imbred cousin, that is also your father, and uncle, in a closet and watch you two rip each other to shreds!"

so the other day, a customer walked up to me and said, "do ya'll have any full-bred koi?" . . . .

:ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:

the first thing that came to mind was "are you kidding me?" man, people are wild. :screwy:

As opposed to being inbred, which this person obviously is.
