The case of the Triangle-Haired Special Order Lady

[Andara Bledin]

Did that lady really tell you that her number was 867-5309? I wouldn't even have taken it down, myself.

^-.-^

ADG: Oh, so it's a store credit card thing? Like a loan from your store?
Me: We have a partner company who provides the funds for it, but, essentially it is like a loan from us.
ADG: And do I have to pay it back?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

No of course not, that's why we call it a gift! What, we don't? We call it a loan? In that case, yes you DO!

[mattm04]

Of course it was! Didn't she tell them her name was Jenny? Her husband Tommy will be furious she didn't get that cake...

Yes, she really did give me 867-5309. I didn't realize it until she left.

Dammit, now I have that song stuck in my head.

You think that's bad? I've got "Me and Mrs. Jones" stuck now!

She gave me Mrs. Jones as the name and she said her phone # was 867-5309.

Knowing how dumb people can be, I wonder how many think this is real! I mean, the "drug company" name kind of gives it away!

I've had people refuse to give a phone number and insist that they would call us to check. Sometimes they don't want us to call because it's a gift for someone in the house and they don't want them to answer the phone, but other people are just paranoid. If you look up orders under the store's phone number, you will get mostly employees (since we don't usually bother to call employee book orders; we just leave them a note) and several paranoid folks because we have to put something in there and that way we don't try calling a fake number.

I've had people fill out return slips and put the phone number as 867-5309, and I've also gotten (XXX) 555-1212 (which is directory assistance; you just use the area code for wherever you need info for).

Yeah it's a joke site but a good one.

The customer was of an interesting type. Her hair extended an impressive distance away from her head, not unlike the character Alice in the Dilbert comics.

You know what? I had to Google this to see exactly what Alice looks like. I absolutely do not read Dilbert, being I really cannot stand the character. But, my goodness, did this lady really have a hairdo like that? I think I may run home and have my wife do that, too.

I absolutely do not read Dilbert, being I really cannot stand the character.

I think you'd get a kick out of today's strip. It fits with the theme of the site so well.
