  • No Refund For Your Own Stupidity

    This happened yesterday, a man brought back a pack of lasange sheets, i opened them up and the sheets were completley black inside, i'm wondering what the hell he'd done to it when he says to me. "They didn't turn out like the picture on the packet, i want a refund" This genious thought the lasagne was a ready meal and he stuck the box into the microwave to cook it.

    I was alittle speechless for a second, and then had to explain that i couldn't do the refund unless the product was faulty or it was a mistake we made, not because you can't read the instructions on the back of the pack.

    A couple of things that would have made it clear it was not a frozen meal.

    1 It wasn't frozen.
    2 It was alot lighter than a frozen meal

    I don't know about you but but before i nuke a frozen meal i take it out of the pack first and stab it a few times with a fork, this guy didn't even take it out of the box, just threw the whole thing in the microwave

    He also tried to refund some other item which more than half of them were from another supermarket.

    Nice try buddy. got a good laugh out of it though

    Why some people don't read the directions on whatever they buy before they use it makes me wonder.

        3. There were no microwave directions on the box....

          makes me wonder if the guy can even read . . . .
          I remember a few years back they had frozen "ice cream" treats for dogs in the grocery stores. The company had to change the label because of too many returns due to taste by humans. Apparently people who could not read were buying it thinking it was for human consumption. While it didn't hurt them in anyway it didn't taste all that good.

            My black lab LOVED Frosty Paws, but yes IIRC they are very salty, and not much other flavor.
            The only words you said that I understood were "His", "Phone" and "Ya'll". The other 2 paragraphs worth was about as intelligible as a drunken Teletubby barkin' come on's at a Hooter's waitress.

              So, he's the guy who keeps smearing feces all over the stall?

                  They still sell that crap around here. Now there's a few different brands. The grocery stores don't even stock them together; all brands are thrown in where ever they have empty space.

                    Well, Klondike has a polar bear on it. It's surprising how many people really can't read. Illiteracy and functional illiteracy are rampant. That could explain many of the times when people ignore or disregard signs.

                      I was out for my evening walk a couple nights ago. I came across a woman who was sitting in her car crying like a baby, to the point that her whole face was wet from the tears. Being the nice guy* that I am I stopped to ask her if she was ok. Once she calmed down enough to form a sentence, she told me that she had just bought her car that morning and couldn't find the knob to turn on her headlights.

                      Isn't that one of the things you should try to find the location of BEFORE you're out after dark?

                        Well, if he doesn't read in the first place, the "MEN" and "WOMEN" signs are just suggestions, and don't apply to him.

                          she told me that she had just bought her car that morning and couldn't find the knob to turn on her headlights.
                          And this had her broken down crying in her car?! Yikes! That's frightening...

                          And how hard is it to find the headlight switch?...every car I've ever driven has had the headlight knob in the same place. And who doesn't spend a few minutes in their new car fiddling with all the buttons and knobs to see what they do?

                          (On-Star should use that scenario for their next commercial..."Hello, On-Star? I don't know how to turn on the lights..." "Just a moment, ma'am, I'll send a signal and your lights will be on in a jiffy." "Oh, thank you so much, you've saved my life!")

                            ahhhhhhhhh! So THIS guy is why so many frozen pizzas now say "Product must be cooked before eating." WTH? How many lawsuits or complaints do you think it takes before these warnings appear? How long before noodles come with "Product must be boiled (in water) and then have a bit of tasty marinara or cream sauce tossed on them before eating." label?

                              Holds his thumb with his other hand, and pees his pants I'll bet.
