I’m The Only Person That Ever Takes Photos Ever
(Our company is renowned for its printing services, which includes everything from old-fashioned film development for individuals to wrapping buildings for major corporations. Our retail department — the “walk-in” part of the store — sees roughly 100 customers a day. And yet, this happens quite frequently. A customer approaches the counter.)
Me: “Hi there! How can I help you?”
Customer: “I’m picking up my order.”
Me: “Okay, great, do you have your reference number?”
Customer: “It’s three 4×6 prints and a roll of film.”
Me: “Okay, great! Do you have your reference number?”
Customer: “They’re pictures of two men, fishing.”
Me: “Okay, let’s start with your name.”
Customer: “I brought them in two days ago. Three 4×6 photos. Glossy?”
Me: “Sir… we have over 400 orders back there in filing. They’re not sorted by size or image; they’re sorted by number. So… let’s start with your name and I will look up your number, please?”
