Customer: “This may sound odd, but we’re looking for a light with a finish that’s resistant to…um…bird poop.”

Me: “I’m guessing you have a pet? Well, no finish is going to stand up completely to that kind of thing, but we can look at a few things. What kind of light are you looking for?”

Customer: “It’s for over our kitchen table.”

(I proceed to find them some lights. Later on as I’m helping them out to their car…)

Me: “Oh, I never did ask the name of your bird!”

Customer: “Well, we have about 70 of them. Bye!” *drives off*

Coworker: “Remind me not to accept any of their dinner invitations.”
