Stupid customer tricks
- Thread starter dragonfish
- Start date
we consider these customers to unfortunate and crazy ridiculous dumb because before you walk into anything you should know something about it first. you find out about a car before you buy it to know how to care for it, a house, a computer... why the hell is it to be ashamed to call these customers DUMB!!!
i just remembered a story from a long time ago, its not really LFS related but its still funny.
i worked as a hostess at an applebee's one hellish time, and me and one of the other hostesses where standing at the door on a slow day and i was telling her how i had read a story about a couple that had been stranded in the ocean and they drank fish and turtles' blood to stay alive.
she asks why didn't they just drink water, if they were in the ocean? (this girl was 19 years old high school grad with a one year old kid) she had just never heard of SALT WATER before in her entire life. so then she asked me why the water has salt in it, and how it got the salt in it.
seriously, i couldn't make that sh&* up.
i under stand that we don't exactly have an ocean view from MN but you must have heard of salt water at some point from kindergarten to 12th grade. or even form disney movies like finding nemo.

Oh shut up....... I got stung by both working in a pet store.......... Scats hurt like hell too!!!!
again, not a customer trick, but me and my brother and my sister were just talking about my sisters plecos and she was complaining about them chasing each other, so in order to shut her up, i said that they might be breeding. then she asked me how many eggs that they would lay, and i said that my blood parrots layed over 200 eggs, and she goes "ya, but plecos aren't fish, so how many eggs would they lay?" me and my brother just looked at each other and flipped out on her. how can you not know that something that breathes under water and has scales is a fish?
