sc: I want a pizza!
me: What kind?
sc: I don't care.

yeah, wow.

quickie 2:

me: Can I help you?
sc: I just tasted this pizza someone had, and I want the same thing!
me: What was it?
sc: I don't know, some kind of chicken pizza.
me: Did it just have chicken.
sc: I don't know. But it was really good.
me: Well, um, ok, chicken pizza then.
me: <get name, address, and finishes call>

With my tarot cards, I can tell you what their pizzas would be:

I forsee the Empress, crossed by the nine of cups. This represents an entitlement whore who wants everything in life, wants to go quite overboard. So give them double of every topping you have.

Second pizza is the seven of pentacles. That means they want a garden pizza. Stuff the thing with veggies. Do they want meat? Let's look and see. Two of swords. They want some type of meat, but they can't identify it for you. What is to be done? This is a two, and deuce of swords at that! Put half of your meat toppings on one side of the pizza, and the other half of your meat toppings on the other side. Like, your pepperoni, chicken, and bacon on one side, your hamburger and whatever else you have as meat on the other. Wait a second, there's one card left . . . The reversed Magician. This is not good. It means someone's manipulating, or yanking on someone else's chain. With the reversed Magician, it's a question of power. Who has it, who wants it, and how is it used? This order will turn out to be fake. And if the order's not fake, you can bet the check they pay it with is going to be.


I also forsee the Tower for your driver, disaster in the air. Luckily I don't see the Chariot, so it won't involve the delivery car. So then what could be the problem with a pizza delivery if it doesn't involve a car problem? The final card will tell. Aha, the Hermit, there it is, a conflict of time. Eh, that's this, I accidentally took a fourth card. What is it? Oh my, it's the Queen of Cups, reversed. The Queen of Cups, reversed, has a bit of a problem with lying and listening only to her reality, not everyone else's. So that's it. The pizza's going to be fine, largely because it's free, since she's going to obsessively lie about the time.

George W Bush joke, if anyone gets the reference.

I got it. "It's pronounced 'Keesh', George."

I got it. "It's pronounced 'Keesh', George."

Well, we have to remember W. was trained by Dan Quayle!

I find some customers like this amusing.

Working in an electronics store, you occasionally get people coming in asking "I want your best camera!". "Do you have a budget, or are there any particular features you are looking for?" Often met by the reply, "No, I just want the best camera".

Takes customer to Canon 5D Mk II with EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens (£2200+). Customers reaction "No thats too much, I was thinking more a budget of £XX" Seriously, if you have a budget, tell me, or I will go for the biggest sale I can get.

When the store you are in can source cameras like the Nikon D3x (£4,798/$7,228) saying "I want your best camera" could be the equivalent of several months wages.
