WARNING: Dopey customer stories within!
There must be something in the air today...
Got a call from a man who's trying to download pictures from his computer to his phone via USB, and is getting "the file is too big" error messages. I advise him that, well, the file is probably too big for the available memory on his phone. He says "But I thought the cable takes care of that." Silence for a moment as I digest this, then I inform him that there is nothing in a USB cable that can possibly change the size of a file being transferred through it, and that he might want to check out that attractive mini-Frisbee that came with the cable for assistance in resizing the pictures. I guess the tiny connector fooled him into thinking only tiny pictures could go through into the phone......

I know this has nothing to do with cell phones, but a long time ago I worked at K-Mart (flame all you want) LOL, this guy came up to me and asked me where he could find a "hot box". For the life of me, I didn't know what he was talking about, after about a half hour it turned out he was looking for a microwave. 🙄

I used to work for K-Mart too! People used to come in looking for the weirdest things... such as
"Living picture box" aka TV
"Foot Protectors" aka shoes
One time, this mean a$$ b|tch was screaming how she couldn't find "smoking pipes". I told her K-Mart didn't sell Crack Pipes. Surprisingly, I did not get in trouble.

hahahaha....i used to work for future shop (best buy stateside). I worked in the computer department. Some old guy walked in, to my very obviously computer-selling environment, ie. computers, monitors everywhere...i'm standing in the flat panel aisle, the guy walks up to me, and asks if i know where he can get a "fuel funnel" for his car.

Yeah It's like that game they play on Loveline-Germany or Florida
(If you never listened to the show, A caller will tell a bizarre story from a newspaper, and Dr. Drew and Adam Corrola guess whether it occured in Germany or Florida)

Then I get a very nice but ditzy lady who wants itemized billing suppressed on her account, but "only on one line." No problem I say, and check her account. Only one line on the account. I tell her, of course this will only affect one line, because she only has one line, and after a bit of back and forth it turns out she actually only wants calls to and from a certain number suppressed, so someone else can't see who she's been calling... Sorry ma'am, it's either all calls or none, can't selectively choose which calls to print on the bill...

What I find disturbing is when customers insist on telling me WHY they don't want the calls to appear on the bill. "Yes, sir you're cheating on your wif
