A guy called in yesterday and explained that he had $450 to spend and wanted a laptop around $450. He then asked how much would that a laptop cost if it was around $450.
Some people…
Yesterday I had a guy try to give me about half the money that was due on his invoice. I told him it wasn’t enough when I counted it. He then said, “It will be OK just take that.” I explained to him that it won’t be OK when the cash draw doesn’t add up at the end of the day. He then threatened to kill me if we didn’t give him his xbox back. I called the cops on him at this point. My boss held him at gun point until the cops got here. Turns out this guy had a warrant out for his arrest for not paying child support. They took him to jail and we got to keep his xbox 360. All he needed was $17 more dollars and he’d have enough to pay his $39 bill.
Ironic customer is ironic.
I just had a customer tell me all about the evils of socialism. After explaining how everything is going to hell in a hand basket and unwarranted too, he then goes on to tell me he can’t pick up his laptop until he gets his disability check next month.
Middle aged women say the darndest things.
I had a phone call from a lady this morning about how she couldn’t get web pages to come up. After talking to her for a minute I able to figure out that it was because her computer wouldn’t turn on. She then told me she wasn’t able to tell me exactly what her problem was or what she couldn’t do and said she’d have to get her husband to call us later.
Right after that another woman walks in the store. The first thing she said was that lightning may have damaged her computer. She then said, “I don’t understand why you have to look at it so you can fix it.” She then told me that she would call the cops on us if we didn’t call her back by tomorrow. She explained that this computer is very important because she’s trying to sign up for welfare and needs it to type a letter.
Customers say the darndest things.
It’s amazing how many people come into the store and say, “Why do you have so many computers in here?”
