Me: “Do you have a policy number or last name so I can search it?”

Coworker: “No, I don’t! Why can’t you just search her name?!”

Me: “We’ll there are literally hundreds or Maria’s with policies. Do you have an address so I could narrow it down?”

Coworker: “No, I already told you! God, you are so incompetent! Why do you have to make this so difficult?”

Coworker: “Never mind! Thanks for NOT helping!”

Me: “No problem…”
