A-Salt-ed By Stupidity, Part 2

(I work for an online gourmet food shop. They sell all kinds of neat things, ranging from gourmet sea salts to flavored sugar and spice blends. I am working the phones when I get this beauty of a call.)

Me: “Thank you for calling [Company]. How may I help you?”

Customer: “Do your natural sea salts have any sodium in them? I need sodium-free natural sea salts.”

(Now I know they make fake “sea salt” in labs for people who shouldn’t have too much salt, but these are NATURAL sea salts. CLEARLY LABELED.)

Me: “I’m afraid they do, ma’am.”

Customer: “Every last one of them? I need to find natural sea salt that doesn’t have any sodium in it!”

Me: “I’m… very sorry, ma’am. All of our natural sea salts do have sodium in them.”

Customer: “Ain’t that some bull****. F*** this place.” *click*
