Florida Man Expects Washers From The Future

I work at a call center for one of the largest appliance manufacturers in the United States. I get a call from some old guy in Florida.

Caller: “There is a quarter stuck in the tub of the washer. I need a service to come out for it. This isn’t the first time this has happened to me.”

Me: *As I’m scheduling his service* “You need to make sure you search your pants thoroughly to ensure there is no loose change or other items when they go in the washer.”

Caller: “If the d*** engineers weren’t so f****** stupid, then the machine would be designed to collect my change in a tray for me and allow me to extract them on my own.”

I almost asked if he wanted the machine to roll his change for him and, while we’re at it, wipe his a** for him, too. Unfortunately, this was before I stopped caring about that job.
