  • We are NOT the Pony Express!

    This was from a couple weeks ago, but I completely forgot about it till now.

    Background: The Bar has a link to a major Northeastern city, and has some t-shirts that many people from that city tend to groove on, and tend to buy when they are down here. This is key to this story.

    So, a woman calls up The Bar and gets my coworker on the phone. She is very rude and abrasive, and is asking about said t-shirts.

    RUDE WOMAN: "How can I buy a t-shirt if I'm not down there?"
    COWORKER: "Ma'am, we do have a website you can go-"
    RUDE WOMAN: "I went there and it was no help. I just want a t-shirt!"
    COWORKER: "Ma'am, I understa-"
    RUDE WOMAN: "How the hell am I supposed to get a t-shirt if you're all the way down there?!?!?"
    COWORKER: "Excuse me?"
    RUDE WOMAN: "You need to get me a t-shirt up here in Northeastern City!"
    COWORKER: "Ma'am, I'm going to put my boss on the phone."

    And so my coworker got Boss Man on the line. I only heard his part of the conversation. And I wasn't really paying much attention to it, not knowing the first part yet, until I heard the way it ended:

    BOSS MAN: "No, that is NOT what I said. No. No. This conversation is OVER. Good BYE!"

    Boss Man doesn't put up with too much shit or suffer fools gladly. And he basically told this woman where she could shove it.

    She honestly wanted us to stop what we were doing and somehow get her a freakin' t-shirt even though they are readily available online. Like we are going to drop everything and drive 1500+ miles to get her her precious t-shirt.

    Idiots abound. Whenever you doubt it, there is always more proof.

    Silly Jester. Don't you know? You're sposed to hand deliver it to her on a silk pillow with a free box of turkish delite. All while bowing down to her awesomness and chanting "We're not worthy, We're not worthy."







    I kid of course . You'd think she's never heard of ordering it off zee internet or something.

        Plu-eeze . . . if I asked my better half for that, I'm sure he'd do all of the above PLUS offer a back massage, leg massage, foot massage, neck massage and a glass of wine.

        Seriously though, I can find better things to get my panties in a knot over and a t-shirt isn't one of them.

            To the people from the particular other city, yes. In general, yes. I have no use for them myself, but if I were from said other city, I probably would be sporting one.
