Geek Squad Conspiracy!
I don't know what was going on yesterday, but apparently all the people in my area over the age of 70 wanted a completely new desktop system. One lady who came up to my till was hard of hearing, but I had no problem helping her. She was very nice. But then along came CROTCHETY OLD GUY(TM). Crotchety Old Guy bought a new system. No problem....right? The transaction went along normally until we got towards the end.
Me: "Well sir, here is your reciept. You qualify for a $10,000 Best Buy shopping spree. Just go to Bestbuy.com and fill out a short survey about how we treated you today." (I have to say it. Just like I HAVE to offer magazines and I HAVE to ask if you hvae or want Reward Zones).
Him: "Oh why thanks. So gimme that winning number!" Hardy, har, har
Me: *trying to supress homocidal thoughts* "Well, sir, you can take your computer over to the Geek Squad and they can open it up to make sure your system works."
Him: "Oh no. See, I've already paid for this. It's mine! I don't want anyone touching this but me and this guy *points at some random dude who might be his son-in-law or something* Besides, I don't trust those guys back there. THEY MIGHT STEAL SOMETHING FROM ME.
Me: *trying to hide my "WTF?!" look* ..."Have a nice day, sir. Come back and see us."
...What the HELL is the Geek Squad gonna steal from you? Your crappy Compaq stickers?
