Here's Yer Sign!

Maybe I should rename this blog 'stupid things people do' because I'm telling you there would be NO SHORTAGE OF CONTENT. One brief example:

Paul is waiting in line at K-Mart customer service behind a woman returning a Barbie:

Woman - I want to return this Barbie. Here is the receipt.

Customer Service Lady - Okay, (clickclickclick) here is your money, ma'am.

Woman - No, this isn't right, I should get more back.

Customer Service Lady - (checking) No, that's the correct amount. The Barbie dolls were 'buy one get one half off' which is equivalent to 25% off so you get back the original amount minus 25%.

Woman - (deeply irritated) I KNOW that they were 'buy one get one half off' so I'm keeping the one that was half off and returning the full price one!

Customer Service Lady - (sigh)

When you work in retail, you learn that there is no shortage of stupid or worse, mean people. :(
