(I am stocking shelves in our birdseed section.)
Caller: “Excuse me?”
Me: “Yes?”
Caller: “I’m looking for something to keep turtles out of my birdfeeder.”
Me: “… What?”
Caller: “My birdfeeder? Those turtles keep pestering my birds and eating all the feed.”
Me: “How would… turtles? I’m afraid I don’t understand.”
Caller: “I…NEED…TO…KEEP…TURTLES…OUT! Is that so hard to understand?”
Me: “How on earth does a turtle even get onto a birdfeeder?!”
Caller: “Oh, did I say turtles? I meant squirrels! Now I see your confusion!”
