Unfiltered Story #137127

I’m the stupid customer in this story.  I try to call a company to get a replacement part for a small appliance.  The phone rings and rings.  Finally…

Employee:  (Very tentative) Hello?

Me:  Hi.  I’m calling to see if I can get a replacement (part).

Employee:  Um, I’m sorry.  I’m part of the cleaning crew.  The company is closed today for Thanksgiving.

Me:  Oh, crap!  I’m sorry!  I’m Canadian.  I totally forgot it was American Thanksgiving today.

Employee:  No problem.  By the way, I love that “Red Green” show.
