Yesterday while I was helping out in Best Buy, a woman approached me with a pink plastic phone case asking how many txt messages it could store in an inbox…. I said she needed to have a cell phone for that. She clearly did not understand.

After about 10 minutes of trying to explain that the case was solely for style/protective purposes, I sent her over to the phone department and let them deal with her for the next HOUR.—neric05

C1: “I’m allergic to anchovies, so no anchovies on my Caesar salad.” -there’s anchovies in our caesar dressing, what would you like instead? C1: No there’s not, I had it last week and I didn’t taste them. I grind anchovies into that dressing Every. Single. Day.—WesbroBaptstBarNGril

I worked geek squad once and a customer told me his ipod gave his jeep a virus and that’s why he was having engine trouble now.—halfprice06

I used to work at Red Lobster. A lady asked me for suggestions on something healthy. I suggested grilled salmon. She promptly turned down the idea, saying she heard it was full of fat. She then ordered a fried seafood platter with double butter and sour cream for her baked potato and double ranch dressing for her salad.—jennsatterfield83

I made lentil soup for the kitchen I worked in as a teen, but I put the carrots in later than I should have and so they still had a slight crunch when the first customer bought a cup. He stormed back in after a few minutes and demanded his money back because he was going to get food poisoning from eating an uncooked carrot.—RepresentativeBelt

I worked at Borders Books and a lady at the info desk asked where are our BBQ’s. When I told her we don’t carry BBQ’s she got very angry and said, “well you carry books on them, right?

Why wouldn’t you have them in stock?” I replied, “We have books on nuclear weapons but I don’t keep those in stock either.” I was written up later that day. B*tch…—bad__movie__fan

I used to work at a book store. You’d be surprised how many people came in and asked us to help them find a book that they knew nothing about.

We’re pretty good at figuring out what people need, but when they don’t know the author, title, or anything about the book, it’s pretty much impossible. My favorite ones were people who insisted we should be able to find a book because “I told you! The cover is red!”—JakeMcK
