    , | Calgary, Alberta, Canada

    (A lady came in to buy an iMac computer. After leaving, she called me 30 minutes later.)

    Me: “Yes ma’am, how may I help you?”

    Customer: “I thought these things came with a monitor? You told me it had a monitor.”

    Me: “Yes ma’am, it’s one big monitor with a keyboard and mouse.”

    Customer: “Well this one doesn’t have one.”

    Me: Um…it’s the big black square on the front.”

    Customer: “There is NO big black square on here.”

    Me: “What do you mean? The whole machine is just a monitor; it’s the big black square above the CD Slot and speakers.”

    Customer: “There is NO big black square. There are no speakers. You told me it came with a monitor.”

    Me: “Ma’am…the whole computer is just a monitor with speakers and a CD Drive built in. Spin it around; it’s the big black square on the front.”

    (I can hear her turning the machine around and around, and she starts getting angry with me.)

    Customer: “Listen, there is no big black square, there are no speakers, and there is no slot for a CD.”

    Me: “Ma’am…do you have the computer face down on your desk?”

    (I can hear a big clunk as the flips the computer upright on the desk.)

    Customer: “Um…I have to go now.” *click*
