    My customers are well, you decide.

    Today we had a few customers that seemed a little "not all there".

    Me: awesome game store manager
    SC: well you know

    1st customer

    Me: Hi, *opening spiel*
    SC: Do you guys have internet?

    I give him a withering look and nod. *there is a rather large sign, very bright, that says in foot high letters "internet cafe", it is unmissable*

    2nd customer

    *from our facebook page which is connected to our online store*

    SC: Hey, do you guys have a copy of Eclipse for sale. The website says "sold out". *this is a direct copy/paste of what he said*
    Me: Nope, that means we are sold out.

    3rd customer

    SC: Do you guys sell games here?
    Me: No, no we dont.

    4th customer

    *This one I posted about the other day, it is worth putting in this post*

    Me: *opening spiel*
    SC: I will have a coffee
    Me: Huh??
    SC: Ya, I will have a coffee.
    Me: sorry sir, we dont have coffee here.

    *keep in mind that this is a game store, very much NOT a coffee shop. We are next to a McDicks which has coffee. There is no mistaking the fact that we are NOT a coffee place.*

    I judge your customers to be suffering from some form of crippling blindness! It's triggered by words that have more than 3 letters in them!

    Coffee guy... wonder what was going through his mind, perhaps he was really zoned out?

    Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he’ll have to touch to be sure.

      B... b... but you have an 'Internet cafe' sign! How dare you call yourselves a cafe if you don't serve coffee?

          Ah, we do serve here, just internet though. You are more than welcome to a nice dose of F**k off and GTFO though. I have said these things to customers before and the boss backs me up all the way.

          SC: I came in the other day and your employee told me to GTFO
          Boss: Good, that is what I pay him to do.

            Ahh, yes; but "cafe" is French for "coffee..."

            It would be like having a shop in France called, "L'Internet Coffeeshop"

              I always figured it was meant to be short for 'cafeteria' Tho only if other French words were not involved in the name.

                Not only this awesome but it reminded me of the Gord. Which reminds me, I have to read through the Acts of Gord again.

                  Not good enough. The term "double-double" (2 cream, 2 sugar) is the intellectual property of a chain named after a hockey player. The sign says "Internet cafe" not "Internet Tim Horton's", so you can't get a "double-double".
                  Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

                      oddly enough at my <last company> that happened sometimes. but it wasn't so bad ... the thumbtacks & notbooks etc were one aisle over from the blank dvds etc.
