How many? HOW MANY?! (Kind of long.)

[AtDIelement]

This guy comes in for gift cards, not really sucky as much as he mumbled a little too much.

GC: Gift Card Guy

GC: Hi, I'd like gift cards.
Me: Ok, how much
GC: 1 hundred and fifty and two twenty five.
Me: Check, I'll be right back with that.

So, I do my usual, run in the vault and get two cards for the gentleman. I come back.

Me: Ok, so you wanted this one for $150 and this one for $225.
GC: No, I said two twenty fives. I need two cards for $25.
Me: Ok, let me go get one more card.

So I go get it.

Me: Ok, so let me just type this up into the program and you'll be good to go.
GC: Do you have four cards there?
Me: I'm sorry, no three.
GC: I needed one card for $100 and another for $50.
Me: I'm sorry, I thought you said one card for $150.
GC: *sigh* No!

So I went in the vault, kind of slammed the door on my way in, and got his last card...

And of course he was doing the huffy puffy sigh the entire time.

I was half expecting him to want another one for some obscure amount. I suppose I should've clarified more how many cards he wants, but the way he said the numbers it sounded as though he only wanted two.

Idiots like that used to drive me nuts when I worked at a store that also sold money orders.
After awhile, whenever anyone came up and need multiple MOs, I made them write it down, how many on each.

Oi, what a jerk.

I would have thought he wanted 3 by his first statement, but I wouldn't have gone to get cards at all until I had confirmed, rephrasing it, to make certain I understood what he could only say poorly.

I tried that and all he would confirm was "a couple."

He wouldn't elaborate past that, even when asked.
