I got a call today, asking for the manager.
Me: I'm sorry, he's gone for the day, can I take a message?
SC: He's NOT there?
Me: No, he's not.
SC: Will he be there Sunday?
(wtf, it's only Tuesday, plenty of days in between to talk to him......)
Me: I can't really say, but he is usually not in on weekends. Can I take a message?
(more futzing around her wanting to know when he'll be in, when he has 5,000 other things going on and an erratic schedule even when things are calm)
SC: *sigh*
SC: Maybe you can help me. I want to know if my order is done.
Me: Sure, what is your last name?
SC: mumblemumble - and complains when I ask her to repeat it until I understand
Me: Ok, it's right here, and completed
SC: And he did the work?
Me: Generally when an order is completed, the manager has done what you have requested.........
SC: How much is it?
Me: One minute while I get into the system
Me: $95 even before tax
SC: Well, that doesn't help me, now does it? I need the entire total.
Me: It will be between $100 and $105.
SC: No, that's not good enough! I think (mangled manager's name) said it would be $102, I need to know!
Me: I can't find out exactly untill you are rung out (if you mark something as being sold in the system, you can't unmark it as suck), but yes, right around $102.
SC: How will I know how much money to bring?
*deeerrrrrrr* Bring $105 and take home your change, idiot!
Me: Fine, hold on.
so I get out the calculator, have to ask coworker the exact tax rate there, and come up with the total.
Me: $102.13.
SC: $102......13?
Me: Yes.
SC: Are you sure your manager won't be in tonight?
Me: Yes, absolultely. Bye!
I told my coworker if she doesn't show up with $102.13 on the PENNY, I'm going to invoice her for wasting my time. grrrrrrrrrr
