The customer is not always right

Ei på et annet forum la ut en link til denne siden, og den må bare deles. Jeg ler så tårene spruter. Diverse serviceansatte (butikker, call centre osv.) har skrevet inn små og store historier fra arbeidslivet. Det verste er at jeg kjenner meg igjen fra min tid på Kiwi. www.notalwaysright.com

Bad Reception, Worse Misperceptions

Call Center | Rochester, NY, USA
Me: “Thank you for calling, how can I help you today?”
Customer: *thick accent* “I have problem with cell phone.”
Me: “Okay, sir, I’m sure I can help you with that. It looks like we’re going to have to re-set your connection. I need you to type in the following series of numbers, followed by the pound key.”
(I hear a distinct whacking sound in the background.)
Me: “Sir? What are you doing?”
Customer: “You say pound phone. I pound on table. Pieces fly off!”

HAHAHAHA!

The Forbidden Fruit

Ice Cream Store | Baltimore, MD, USA
(I’ve just finished putting a cherry on top of an older woman’s ice cream. It’s slowly starting to roll down the side.)
Me: “Oh, watch it! You’re about to lose your cherry!”
Customer: “Oh dearie, I lost that a long time ago.”

Oh my! Jeg får jo ikke gjort noe jobb nå som jeg har begynt å lese her jo!

I tillegg er jeg tjåkka over hvor lite smart enkelte mennesker er...

Ja, sant:

Customer: “Can I have the breakfast sandwich without tomato, please?”
Me: “Sorry, sir, but the sandwich is pre-made. You can just take the tomato off it, if you want.”
Customer: “No! I’m extremely allergic to tomatoes. That could kill me!”
Me: “Well, if you want to wait five minutes or so, I’ll make you one special without tomatoes.”
Customer: “That would be great.”
(I go to the kitchen, wash everything that might have touched a tomato, and make the guy a sandwich. I come back out and hand it to him.)
Customer: “Thanks. You got any ketchup?”

(A customer in a big SUV pulls up to the pump. When she gets out, she realizes that her gas tank is on the driver’s side but her passenger’s side is facing the pump.)
Customer: “I bet that’s not gonna work, right?”
Me: “I don’t think so. You’d better try again.”
(She gets back in, drives around the same pump, and gets out. Her gas tank is still on the wrong side.)
Customer: *puzzled* “How come?”
Me: “Let me help you…”

Det er bare det at slangen faktisk ER lang nok til å rekke rundt hele bilen, så det hadde nok gått!
