Wireless, Clueless, Hopeless, Part 38

, , , , | Right | June 20, 2020

I work at a small electronics chain which carries everything from batteries, to cell phones, to cables, to gaming consoles. It is Back to School week and we are getting all sorts of calls for random cables and adaptors.

Me: “Thanks for calling [Store]. How can I help you?”

Customer: “Hi. Do you have wireless ethernet cords?”

Me: “I’m sorry. Did you say, ‘wireless ethernet cords’?”

Customer: “Yeah. Wireless ethernet cords. Do you have them?”

Me: “Do you mean wireless adaptors or do you mean you need an ethernet cord?”

Customer: “No. I need a wireless ethernet cord.”

Me: “By definition, an ethernet ‘cord’ cannot be wireless.”

Customer: “Yeah, sure. Whatever, man.” *Click*
