An Artificially Inseminated Refund
(I am walking near the customer service area when I overhear a woman trying to return an item. We have a pretty liberal return policy; as long as you have the receipt and the actual item, you get your money back. Only managers can approve returns, so customer service has called the assistant manager.)
Assistant Manager: “Yes, ma’am, how can I help you?”
Customer: I want to return this turkey baster here. I’ve got the receipt and everything.”
Assistant Manager: “Certainly, ma’am. I need to fill out this form and you’ll be on your way. What can I put down as the reason for return?”
Customer: “Well, no matter which way I sit, it HURTS!”
Assistant Manager: “…”
(The assistant manager turned bright red, got the customer’s money, and ran back to the break room in sheer embarrassment while the rest of us burst out in hysterical laughter.)
