A sales associate was chatting in the staff lunchroom today and told of a customer who called to ask if we have a gas-powered something-or-other (water heater, I believe, of a certain size).
SA: "No, we have electrical ones, but not gas."
Stupid Customer: "But do you have GAS ones in [size]?"
SA: "No, we do have electrical but not gas."
SC: "YOU'RE NOT LISTENING TO ME. DO YOU HAVE GAS ONES IN [SIZE]???"
SA: "Sir, we have gas ones in [other size] and electrical ones in [size the SC wants] but WE DO NOT HAVE GAS ONES IN [SIZE THE SC WANTS]."
SC: "Oh. Well, could you call around the city and find somebody who does?"
SA: "No, we have electrical ones, but not gas."
