Very strange request by a customer

[Zedmeister]

We're a PC parts retailer and we've had people asking for wireless lawnmovers, fence panels ( wtf ? - yeah we sell case panels not fence panels ) and many more funny things

Wireless fence panels? Maybe they were after some sort of laser grid or laser fencing to keep out the neighbours cat for good?

[Howard]

Perhaps they meant a petrol lawn mower

LOL... Internet on a floppy disc... Perhaps 15 years ago

I'm with Lion-o!

I doubt the old dear would even be aware of the existence of bluetooth without some young whipper-snapper telling her. Someone's having her on.

Bucket of steam anyone?
Oh and while you're at it, could you also ask for a long stand?

Thanks!

i think the funniest one of those that i've heard before though was about a kid who was on work experience (he should have seen it coming) at halfords. one of the guys there sent him out to the stores to find him a fallopian tube for a menstrual cycle. the kid was out there for over an hour before the boss found him and asked him what he'd been doing, to which he answered. the boss thought he was just being lazy and then trying to take the p*ss, so he had ago at him and told him to leave and not come back.

LMAO, we do that with all the new people we get at work. There's an inch-thick glass panel on the end of the tills, weighs a ton. We pull it off the brackets and give it to a new person to take over to china and glass (other side of the store) and get a price for it.

They have got wise to this though, and tend to whisper quietly to them as soon as they see them, rather than letting them get to their tills now though

Turns out there was no floppy in the drive . .

Thank god its friday . . .

Woman at work did that the other day, new dell p4 pc, no floppy but it was an option, obviously the case has a cover for the floppy drive, she took of the cover and inserted the floppy.

Ohh how we laughed

[ajbrun]

Even better, flog her one of your special Bluetooth internet kettles

I like the way you automatically think the customer is female!!!!
