Unfiltered Story #67513

(Our coffeeshop is busy and I am taking orders half way down a queue of ten customers)

Customer: “Hello I’m here to speak to someone about yesterday.”

Me: “Okay, can you give me a little more detail on what this is about.”

Customer: “No,”
(Customer looks down at her phone, clearly done with this conversation so I go to the supervisor on duty)

Me: “Supervisor, there’s a lady here looking to speak to ‘somebody’ about ‘yesterday.’ I couldn’t get any more info from her.”

Supervisor: Oh good! *approaches the customer without her being poined out in the queue.* You phoned yesterday about the tea?

(I and my colleagues looked on in shock that it really had been enough information and he’d never met her before.)
