Quoth Gravekeeper View PostWherein We Fear The Contents Of The Box
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostSC: “This isn’t a camp site?”
Me: “No, sorry.”
SC: “Oh. Well, is there a Robert camping there?”
CALLER: "This isn't a pizza place?"
CSR: "No, sorry."
CALLER: "Oh. Well, can you deliver a pizza to me?"
Same logic, and with the same ultimate result.
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostSC: “Is this Yellow Cab?”
Me: “No, sorry. You have the wrong number.”
SC: “This a cab company?”
The chances of you having called the wrong number yet still somehow ended up at the right place are so infinitesimal as to be outright laughable.
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostSC: “Is anyone in the office right now?”
Not unless they’re robbing it.

Quoth Gravekeeper View PostHighly Doubtful
SC: “Is anyone in the office right now?”
Not unless they’re robbing it.
SC: “Can I try to call back after when I understand?”
Because I'm pretty sure I speak for all of us on the bus when I say it's just a tad uncomfortable sitting near a clearly excited man holding a fist shaped item he's going to introduce to his fire exit later. Possibly at the earliest opportunity.I never lost my faith in humanity. Can't lose what you never had right?

I, too, missed your posts, GK!
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostSC: “Oh. Well, is there a Robert camping there?”
Am I the only one? Oh, well.
Me: “And your postal code, please, sir?”
SC: “Huh?”"I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

Quoth Ghel View PostWhen there's a problem with an order on the website my hubby manages, he gets an automated email alert. The vast majority of these are incorrect zip codes. It's amazing the number of people who transpose, shorten, or even skip their zip codes.

Quoth Gravekeeper View PostHopefully I'm not repeating anything, I'm not 100% sure where I left off in my trauma so to speak.
Camping
SC: “Do you have a Robert that’s camping there?”
Me: “I think you have the wrong number, ma’am”
SC: “This isn’t a camp site?”
Me: “No, sorry.”
SC: “Oh. Well, is there a Robert camping there?”

Welcome back, GK! Yay! I have to ask...Do you suppose the IQs of all your customers put together even averages out to more than a 5...or .5? I'm...Really not sure. As for the box...fear the box! Run from it! The man holding it clearly has NO sense of privacy or caring for others around him who have to SEE the box."And though she be but little, she is FIERCE!"--Shakespeare

Quoth siskaren View PostWhat blows my mind about this guy though is that he doesn't seem to have any concept of what a postal code is."I look at the stars.
