Me: <spiel?
SC: I'd like to order a large pepperoni pizza with extra meat and a Coke.
Me: Ooh, can I have some? I've worked five hours straight and I'm starving. (I'm teasing the guy, hoping he gets the point that he's dialed a wrong number. Not the case.)
SC: Just steal some from the back room.
Me: I can't.
SC: Why not? I do it all the time.
Me: There's no food here.
SC: What kinda pizza place has no food?
Me: This isn't a pizza place, sir. I'd be happy to make a chemical stew, seeing as this is Namco, but pizza's pushing it.
SC: <long pause>.......So can I have a pizza?
Me: <faceregister>
Oh, man, that guy was not paying attention. Though I do enjoy the part where he imparts his wisdom about pilfering from the place you work.
Later I'm ringing out an order when two women come to my lane with the broom and ask me to price check it for them. I tell them it's not for sale, that's our own supply. They insist if it's on the floor, it must be for sale. So I leave my register and stand where the broom once was.
"Am I on the floor?"
"Well, yeah."
"Then I must be for sale."
"No you're not. You work here."
<pointing at broom> "So does that."
They left it behind.
You should have charge $50 for it. If being right is important to them, then they would have paid it and you could bought a new broom and lunch at the Olive Garden for you and your co-workers.
Do You Has...?

on topic, i wait for the day when someone accuses me with sleeping with the boss, just so i can say "sorry sir, i am not a lesbian"
I had a friend who ran an auto parts store with her husband. Everyone but the newbiest of newbies knew they were married, and when one of those new newbies asked her why she got such a sweet schedule and got to take long lunches whenever she wanted, she set him straight.
"I sleep with the boss," she said and breezed out the door.
