When They’re Spouting Spam

I come into the department to start my shift for the day when a customer comes up and starts talking to my manager about getting things printed.

Customer:
“So, I have some files here on my phone that I want to get printed.”

Manager:
“Unfortunately, we can’t print from your phone. You will need to bring the file in on a USB drive.”

Customer:
“How about you give me your email and you can print them that way?”

Manager:
“I’m sorry, but because of the privacy laws we’re not allowed to accept emails for printing.”

Customer:
“Bulls***, I have already emailed several items for printing today.”

My manager, who has been in since opening, replies very politely:

Manager:
“Well, if you already sent some items to our email, then why don’t you just use that email address again?”

Customer:
“What?”

Manager:
“You just said that you already emailed stuff to us this morning, so why don’t you just send it to that email?”

Customer:
“Fine.”

He storms out. My manager turns to me.

Manager:
“Do I have ‘Stupid’ written on my forehead again?”
