Enough Barking Crazy For One Day
RETAIL | RIGHT | OCTOBER 8, 2014
(I’m a supervisor working a closing shift, helping out for another department, since we’re short on people that night, and doing my work at the service desk. My coworker, who is manning the service desk that night, is on the phone with someone, looking slightly perplexed.)
Coworker: *mouths toward me* “Take this! Please!”
(She passes the phone over to me.)
Me: “Thank you for calling your local [Store Name]. How may I help you?”
Customer: *in a very forced high pitched voice* “Do you have any doghouses.”
(It’s pretty difficult to understand, as they’re clearly disguising their voice to sound like a woman.)
Me: “I’m sorry. Did you say doghouses?”
Customer: “Yes, doghouses.”
Me: “Oh, no, I’m sorry. We don’t carry doghouses. We do have dog cages and dog carriers, though.”
Customer: “Do you think a little boy could fit in them?”
Me: *hangs up* “Nope. Not tonight. I do not have the patience. They asked if a little boy could fit in them. F*** that!”
