Some Requests Are Too Exotic
Customer: “Hi. I would like to confirm my order of exotic Mexican dancers for my brother’s bachelor party.”
Me: “Um, sir, are you sure you have the right number? This—”
Customer: “I am getting late! I ordered them yesterday!”
Me: “Sir, this is [Home Retail Store]'”
Customer: “Yeah, I know that! What am I, an idiot?”
Me: “Um—”
Customer: “Of course you would have Mexican dancers! Are you even qualified to work here? Even a KID would know that!”
Me: “Er… sir, are you sure you are calling the right place? THIS IS [HOME RETAIL STORE]. Let me repeat, sir. NOT MEXICO.”
Customer: “SOMEONE NEEDS TO TEACH THIS WOMAN A LESSON ABOUT HER JOB! WHAT KIND OF EMPLOYEE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT THEIR PRODUCTS ARE?”
(Another employee comes up to me and mouths, ‘I’ll deal with him.’)
Employee: “Sir, what are you looking for?”
Customer: “I’M LOOKING FOR EXOTIC MEXICAN DANCERS FOR A BACHELOR PARTY! YOUR D*** EMPLOYEE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT SHE IS DOING!”
Employee: “Oh, I found your order. Repeat your order for me please?” *winks at me*
Customer: “Finally! Someone who knows their job! The number is [number].”
Employee: “Thank you for your order. For the inconvenience, you will get them free. Expect them around 6:30 pm. Enjoy your party!”
