These are true stories. They've (so far) happened to me where I work (at
Radio Shack,,,).
The Cup Holder
At work one day, a lady called and asked if the warranty on her computer covered her
cupholer. Upon inquiring about the "cupholder'' in question, she replied "You
know, you push the button, the light blinks and the cup holder pops out......
Close The Door
At work one day I was attempting to explain over the phone how a CD Rom program
was installed. I told her "Open the drive, stick the CD in, and close the door.
She opened the CD-Rom drive, stuck the CD in, got up from her desk, walked to the
other side of the office, closed her office door, came back to the phone and said
"okay...nothing happened. Now what".
You Might Be A Confederate American
The other day I was approached by a customer who asked me about a linear. A linear,
for those who don't know, is a booster that you get for your CB radio to make transmission
power stronger. If you're on the interstate and you turn it on, it will disrupt the
reception of the radio in the next car.
Linears, are illegal to sell (yet, their not illegal to own...go figure). I
explained to him that linears were illegal, and jokingly said "besides...linears are
for rednecks". He huffed up, replied..."I am not a redneck...I am a
confederate american!" and stomped out of the store. He has not since returned.
Give me time....something even more stupid HAS to happen to me....and you'll be the
first to know...
